If you consider the word Ultimate to mean the latest or the very best, then you can easily understand it to refer to the most recent, or last thing. It does require that you accept or believe that there is a steady improvement from one thing to the thing that follows it and that, thus, the last thing is the best thing or, in this case, the best thing is the last thing. Better certainly than the thing that preceded the last thing.

Penultimate means next to last.
So a penultimate novel is the next to last in a series of novels eg the second novel in a set of three (a trilogy).
Contrary to popular belief, the term "penultimate" (despite that it contains the word "ultimate") has nothing to do with the "best", "highest" or "last". It means the 2nd to last; as such, a "penultimate novel" would be a novel that is written just before the last novel, i.e. in the collection of 7 children's novels by C.S. Lewis called The Chronicles of Narnia, the penultimate novel would be The Magician's Nephew (#6), which comes before the last novel, The Last Battle (#7) in the popular series.
