Don’t judge this book by its title. The Narnia Code is far more subtle and persuasive than its name might suggest.
The author writes: ‘The idea of secret codes usually makes people roll their eyes in disbelief — quite rightly too in most cases. When someone claims to have found a hidden code, it nearly always turns out to be a lot of nonsense’. It was with this sceptical view that I approached the book, and I was surprised by what I read.
