Actually he is, in the garden at the top of the hill in the wilds past Lantern Waste. Everyone you have ever heard of (if you knew the history of those countries) seemed to be there. There was Glimfeather the Owl and Puddleglum the Marshwiggle, and King Rilian the Disenchanted, and his mother, the Star's daughter, and his great father, Caspian himself. It's Chapter XVI.

I saw the first movie but I haven't seen Prince Caspian. I also haven't read the books since I was a child, there was one I never did get to finish... the one where they kept jumping from pool to pool?

DO NOT SEE PRINCE CASPIAN. It's awful. The first one isn't a bad adaptation, but the second one is a mess.

Ah, you're thinking of The Magician's Nephew--published sixth out of seven, but basically a prequel for the original book. Box sets since the '90s number it as the first book.
