Klappentext

One last battle against evil, one final journey to the magical land of Narnia.

Narnia… where the last king makes a stand and sad farewells turn to joy…where the Adventure begins again.

The Unicorn says that humans are brought to Narnia only in time of greatest need—and that time is now. The great Lion Aslan, the heart of Narnia, is missing. An impostor roams the land in his place, enslaving Aslan's loyal creatures and spreading treachery and lies. Only King Tirian and his small band of loyal followers are left to fight the last battle in this magnificent ending to The Chronicles of Narnia.

Zusammenfassung

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 The Chronicles of Narnia.

This CD is narrated by Patrick Stewart.
