The Last Battle- C.S Lewis

The Last Battle by C.S Lewis was a thrilling and adventurous novel that kept readers on the tips of their toes. From characters to battle scenes and biblical in-put, The Last Battle was one of C.S Lewis's finest works. There was never a dull moment or chapter and it left the reader longing for more Narnian adventures.

C.S Lewis wrote The Last Battle novel to represent in his own way the ending times, mentioned in the book of Revelation in the Bible. He wrote the book in such a way that not only children were able to enjoy it but adults as well. That is what makes C.S Lewis such an amazing author; he can capture readers of all ages. After reading the novel I felt myself thinking about it long after I had put down the book. The things that happened and the characters themselves became so real to me. While reading the novel I found myself never wanting to stop reading. I always had to go on to the next chapter to see what kind of adventure or what new creature or Narnia was going to occur.

At the end of the story, the children along with the other main characters, King Tirian, Jewel, Donkey, etc, entered into the gates upon a high hill and were greeted by old Narnian friends. It was a very good closure to the novel because you weren't left wondering what happened to the other characters you had fallen in love with in previous books. The one thing that did bother me somewhat was the fact that Susan, who use to be a friend of Narnia, wasn't one anymore. It made me sad because she had been a very important and loveable character. Despite that one thing, the novel was absolutely brilliant.

The Last Battle

This final book in the Chronicles of Narnia series thankfully returns to the early splendour of "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe". After "The Silver Chair", which seemed a little flat compared to other books in the series, "The Final Battle" restores some of the magic that made the first few novels so enjoyable and successful.

Lewis does well in beginning the novel from the point of view of the Narnians, specifically the last King of Narnia, instead of the from the childrens' perspective. We begin to see a particularly brave story develop from who is essentially a Christian author: A false Aslan has begun corrupting Narnia from within, who eventually comes under the thrall of the vicious realm adjacent to Narnia. Considering the powerful although admittedly insipid themes that Lewis is fond of, it seems a brave move to take his allegory so far. As a child the danger must read very real, and as an adult it is interesting to see the mythology of Lewis' realm with his potentially fully drawn.

Cracking characters and a smooth, compelling storyline make this one of the best of the series, as good as "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe" and a fantastic, thrilling and emotional end to the book series.

8.5/10

I Didn't Want It To End

In this last book in the Narnia Chronicles, even from the beginning, I felt this book was the end. And I really wished C.S. Lewis would have written more tales about Narnia.

This book brought forth many emotions. I was angry that the monkey was making the lion suit. I was happy to see Jill be so brave and smart. I was sad to see the wood nymphs die, being chopped down. I wanted to cry when I read about who died. I felt a connection with all of the characters in some kind of way.

But at the same time, I learned so many lessons. Even today, the themes in this book ring true. How some try to decieve in the name of God. How fear can grab hold of us and make us do things we don't want to do. Also, how beliefs can change from when were children to when we become adults.

I think this book was wonderful along with the entire series. It was so well worth my time to sit down and read about Aslan, and who he clearly represents in my own life, and the many characters that feared him, respected, and loved him.

Thanks.

Narnia is always worth visiting!

I'm always torn on what rating to give the Narnia books. I think if you take the series as a whole, it is - in a way - better than the individual books.
I did enjoy "The Last Battle" quite a lot! And, unfortunately, took longer to read it than I would have liked (which probably didn't help the flow of it). But, for the most part the good and the critiques are the same as always.
The world of Narnia is beautiful! Aslan is always magnificent! What we learn of the characters is enjoyable, and often fun, and I end up feeling like they have become friends. The premises are always intriguing and filled with "right and wrong." But, because all of this is so good, I'm left wanting more; more character development, more on the world, and the plot delved into further.
The ending went on - just a tad - long, for the individual book, however if you consider it the ending for the entire series, I think it's probably pretty accurate.
If you have liked the other books in the series, then I'm sure you'll want to eventually read this one! It is quite an interesting concept/plot, and the story makes some interesting points.
And, of course, the world of Narnia is always worth visiting!
