Prince Caspian

Prince Caspian is an extremely exciting book. It has epic battles and mischievous characters who are all in different places with their faith. Four of them are Nikabrik, Trumpkin, Caspian and Trufflehunter. They all have different beliefs that affect their actions.

Nikabrik was a dwarf with a sour attitude. He did not want to believe in the old kings and queens. He was almost always gloomy, and when all the other animals were dancing around the fire he did not join them. Nikabrik’s faith was not strong in the beginning of the book. Near the beginning of the book, his faith was weak. He did not believe in Aslan, and said that he never existed. Because of that, his actions were not great also. He offered to call ogres, hags and other dark creatures to come and help them in the battle. This shows that he did not have faith in the good side, and he thought that he had to invite dark and bad people to help them.

Trumpkin was very faithful to Caspian, but not so much to Aslan. He said that he did not believe in Aslan because nobody had seen him for so long. This does not affect his actions too much because he still goes and helps Lucy,Susan,Edmund and Peter, and still takes them to Prince Caspian. But then his faith changes when he finally does meet Aslan face to face. He is overwhelmed, and was sorry that he did not believe in him sooner.



One of the most important characters in the book was Caspian. Caspian’s faith remained strong throughout the book. Even when his uncle was chasing him everywhere trying to kill him. He kept faith when times were hard and they were about to fight a battle. He was also kept faith in Aslan right when he learned about about him. He was a great leader because he always encouraged his troops and never gave in to evil.

Trufflehunter was very wise and very calm. He had strong faith all the way through the book. He always believed that Aslan would come back when they needed him, and he always had hope. His faith did not really change because he already had lots of faith in the beginning of the book. He always believed that there was a way no matter what, even if it seemed impossible.

The person who changed most in his faith was Trumpkin. He started out not believing in Aslan or any of the old Narnia beliefs. In the end he believed in all of it. He changed a lot because he did not want to believe something that he could not see. So when Aslan showed himself to them he saw him and he then believed in him. This is comparable to modern day faith because sometimes we start to walk away from God because we start to sin and do bad things. But we do not go back to God because we do not know that he is really loving us so we just keep on walking away. But once God reveals himself to us, then we start to believe and follow him again.
