Description

One last battle against evil, one final journey to the magical land of Narnia.

Narnia...where the last king makes a stand and sad farewells turn to joy...where the Adventure begins again.

The Unicorn says that humans are brought to Narnia only in time of greatest need - and that time is now. The great Lion Aslan, the heart of Narnia, is missing. An impostor roams the land in his place, enslaving Aslan’s loyal creatures and spreading treachery and lies. Only King Tirian and his small band of loyal followers are left to fight the last battle in this magnificent ending to The Chronicles of Narnia.

Reviews

AudioFile Magazine...
Lewis's not-so-hidden message rings loud and clear as characters from the six previous books about Narnia gather together in Paradise after victory in the greatest conflagration imaginable. In this rendering of the classic, who could argue the vocal prowess of famed Shakespearean actor Patrick Stewart, a.k.a. Captain Jean-Luc Picard of television's "Star Trek." Making audio chills run up and down the listener's spine, Stewart brings THE LAST BATTLE to life as he shifts seamlessly from one character to another. Whether assuming the supreme majesty of the beloved Lion Aslan or the quiet voices of the tiniest of animals, Stewart is truly the right reader for this timeless tale.
