Narnia is the fictional land at the center of C.S. Lewis’s seven-book Chronicles of Narnia.
The series follows human children and other characters who enter Narnia at different points in its history. Lewis presents the land as a world created and ruled by Aslan, a talking lion who functions as its most important symbolic and narrative figure.
Narnia is not the name of just one novel: it is the central setting of all seven books. The series begins with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in publication order and concludes with The Last Battle, published in 1956. The Magician’s Nephew supplies an origin story for the world, while The Last Battle depicts its final transformation. Narnia is sometimes incorrectly treated as the title of the whole series, but the series is formally called The Chronicles of Narnia.
