We already have the full collection of Chronicles of Narnia books, but this radio theater version is a very welcome addition. As adults, my husband and I were as captivated as our children while listening to this series on CD. This is more than simply a book being read aloud, it is like really being there and hearing the story unfold. We especially enjoy this CD series for trips in the car, as the time passes quickly while enthralled with the plot. It is a wonderful book series, and if you can't find time for reading, this is a great way to expose your family to good writing. "The Last Battle" happens to be the last book in the series, so be sure to start with "The Magician's Nephew" and "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" first. I don't know if Focus on the family has produced the entire series yet or not, but we've listened to those first two and loved them.

My children (ages 7 & 9) are experiencing Narnia just as I did as a child. This was our 3rd book on CD in the Chronicles. I wish it was our first. The Radio Theatre cast is incredible. My children were transported to Narnia via the actors and the sound effects. Having a cast of actors brings more depth to the story. They ask to hear it again and again. Well worth the investment. There is a Narnia set from the Radio Theatre and I may buy it even though we have 2 books from other narrators. It is that good!

Thanks so much. I got this when I expected to and it was in really great condition with everything that was supposed to be in it.
