This was an incredible ending to this series. 
Even though I am no longer a practicing Christian, the “true” story behind this one and the character of Aslan will still continue to emotionally move me. The thought of a good God who rescues and has a heaven in place which is full of good and better things is a comfort and it was beautifully shown in this ending. 
(I did have to cringe at what was possibly some racism at the beginning…)

Nice ending to the series that ties up the lose ends from the other books. Great conclusion to an amazing series.

Amazing series. Does not have to be read as a "Christian series" simply because C.S. Lewis was devout. I read it as a fantasy series and loved every second.

This was without a doubt the worst Narnia book and one of the worst books I’ve ever read. The false god story line was blatant propaganda that I was best over the head with. And then there was the plot itself: a bunch of white English children fighting dark skinned natives to enforce God’s will, sorry I mean “Aslan’s” will. The ending was the worst part though. All the children and their parents die in a horrific train accident. But it’s ok? Because they get to stay in Narnia now?? Oh, except Susan because she’s interest in “boys and stockings” now. If I could give this book zero stars I would.
