The Horse and His Boy takes place even before the adventures in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe have ended. It begins in Calormen, a land far to the south of Narnia, beyond Archenland, where animals cannot talk and humans can still be treated as slaves.

A poor fisher-boy called Shasta, badly treated by his father, Arsheesh, dreams of travelling to the north, beyond the grassy hills where he lives. Then one day, a Calormene nobleman arrives and demands to buy Shasta from his father. While the two men argue about the price, Shasta wonders what life will be like as a slave in a rich man’s house. Then, amazingly, the Calormene’s horse speaks to him. Shasta’s eyes open wide with astonishment.

“How ever did YOU learn to talk?” he asked.

“Hush! Not so loud,” replied the Horse. “Where I come from, nearly all the animals talk.”

“Wherever is that?” asked Shasta.

“Narnia,” answered the Horse.

The horse explains that he was stolen from his own country when he was a foal. He also says his master is cruel and evil, and persuades Shasta to run away with him to Narnia. The horse, whom Shasta calls Bree, is very proud and, to begin with, makes it clear that he doesn’t think much of his new friend.

“By the way, I suppose you know how to ride?”

“Oh, yes, of course,” said Shasta. “At least, I’ve ridden the donkey.”

“Ridden the WHAT?” retorted the Horse with extreme contempt. (At least, that is what he meant. Actually it came out as a sort of neigh – “Ridden the wha-ha-ha-ha-ha?” Talking horses always become more horsy in accent when they are angry.)

Their journey together is full of danger and amazing twists and turns of fortune. They meet Aravis, a young Calormene girl who is also running away, but can they trust her? First they must outwit the terrifying Tisroc in the city of Tashbaan. And then it is a race against time to cross the desert to reach revengeful enemy …

Okay, A young boy called Shasta is found as a baby and raised by Arsheesh, a Calormene fisherman. As the story begins, Shasta overhears Arsheesh agreeing to sell him to a powerful Calormene feudal noble. Shasta has never really loved the fisherman (and vice versa) and is relieved to discover that he is not really Arsheesh’s son, and awaits his new master in the donkey stable outside the fisherman’s house. The noble’s stallion, Bree, astounds Shasta by speaking to him, and suggesting that they escape a life of servitude together by riding north for Narnia. They meet another pair of escaping travellers, Aravis, a young Calormene aristocrat, and her talking horse, Hwin. Aravis is fleeing a forced marriage to the Tisroc’s grand vizier. The four must travel through Tashbaan, the bustling capital city of Calormen. There they encounter a procession of visiting Narnian royalty, who mistake Shasta for Corin, a prince of Archenland, who has disappeared from their group earlier that day. Shasta is too scared to protest, and goes with the Narnians. He overhears them discussing their escape from Tashbaan and Calormen in order to prevent Rabadash from forcing Queen Susan to marry him. When Shasta is alone, the real Prince Corin reappears and Shasta escapes. Meanwhile, Aravis has been spotted by her noblewoman friend Lasaraleen and must ask Lasaraleen to not only keep silent about Aravis’s identity but help her escape. Lasaraleen agrees, although she cannot understand why Aravis would want to leave the life of a Calormene princess. She helps Aravis to escape through the palace, but they are forced to take refuge when the Tisroc, Rabadash and the Grand Vizier approach. Unfortunately, they’ve hidden in the very room in which the men are about to meet. Aravis overhears the Tisroc and Rabadash discussing the Narnians’ escape and the Tisroc giving Rabadash permission to invade Archenland in preparation for attacking Narnia. Outside the city, Aravis rejoins Shasta and the Horses. The four of them make an unpleasant journey across the desert and a pursuing lion (later revealed to be Aslan) frightens the travellers into fleeing swiftly enough to outrun Rabadash’s army, allowing Shasta to reach King Lune in time to warn him of the approaching Calormenes. The Archenland army prepares their defenses against the Calormenes until a second army from Narnia can arrive. King Lune of Archenland recognizes Shasta as Cor, the long lost elder twin of Prince Corin and therefore heir to the throne. Aravis and Cor live in Archenland thereafter and eventually marry years later. It is stated in tongue-in-cheek manner that the marriage enables them to argue more efficiently.
