This novel is part of the Chronicles of Narnia series.
At the beginning of this story, a boy, Shasta, overhears his father, a poor fisherman, preparing to sell him into slavery to a Warrior. He also finds out that the fisherman is not in fact his biological father, but had found him in a boat that had drifted in, and the man found with him was dead.
He befriends the Warrior's horse, and discovers that the horse is in reality a talking horse stolen from Narnia while young. They decide to run away to Narnia to escape the Warrior.
They have many adventures during travels, including being chased by lions, and meeting another runaway and her talking horse, also from Narnia.
I enjoyed this story, and found it just as delightful as the others in the series I've read.
