Setting
The Silver Chair is set partly in London, Britain and partly in Narnia, some time after World War II. We first see our characters in their school in Britain. Being that the story would have no interest if the children did not go into to Narnia, Aslan pulls them in to help save Narnia. As they travel around, the environments change dramatically. From kings castles, to swamps, to evil lairs, they see all of that in Narnia.
