Which Narnia book concludes C.S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia?

The Last Battle concludes C.S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia.

Published in 1956, The Last Battle is the seventh and final Narnia novel in publication order. Its plot centers on the final conflict in Narnia and includes the ape Shift, the donkey Puzzle, and the false Aslan created through deception.

The novel received the Carnegie Medal in 1957, recognizing it as an outstanding children’s book. It is often discussed for its apocalyptic themes and its depiction of the end of Narnia’s world.

Readers sometimes identify The Silver Chair as the final book because it is the last novel in the series to focus primarily on an adventure during Narnia’s earlier history. However, The Silver Chair was published in 1953, three years before The Last Battle. The series’ closing volume is therefore unambiguous in publication terms.
