Which C.S. Lewis novel is the final book in The Chronicles of Narnia by publication date?

The Last Battle is the final book in The Chronicles of Narnia by publication date.

C.S. Lewis published The Last Battle in 1956. It is the seventh and concluding volume of the Narnia series in publication order, following The Magician’s Nephew, which was published earlier in the same year.

The novel centers on deception in Narnia, a false representation of Aslan, and the conflict that brings the series’ world to its conclusion. It received the Carnegie Medal in 1957, recognizing it as the outstanding children’s book of the preceding year.

The title can be confused with The Silver Chair, which is the fourth published Narnia book, or with The Magician’s Nephew, which is first in the story’s internal chronology. “Final” here means the last novel Lewis published in the series, not necessarily the last point in every character’s personal timeline.
