Description: The last battle is the greatest battle of all. Narnia... where lies breed fear... where loyalty is tested... where all hope seems lost. During the last days of Narnia, the land faces its fiercest challenge - not an invader from without but an enemy from within. Lies and treachery have taken root, and only the king and a small band of loyal followers can prevent the destruction of all they hold dear in this, the magnificent ending to theChronicles of Narnia.

Thoughts: After reading the other 6 books in the series, I think that I expected a different end and that my expectations were somewhat elevated as to how the series ended, not that I didn't enjoy the journey. I think that while my expectations were inflated, it was a good way to end the series This might be a series to revisit down the road by reading the omnibus copy that I own.
Bottom line: The story itself seemed to be ok, but felt it to be a little slow at times. Overall it was a satisfying ending to the series. Recommended.
