A Novel

By: Vince Flynn

Publisher's summary

The four dead guards didn’t concern Mitch Rapp as much as the absence of the man they’d been paid to protect. Joe Rickman wasn’t just another foot soldier. For the last eight years Rickman had ran the CIA’s clandestine operations in Afghanistan. It was a murky job that involved working with virtually every disreputable figure in the Islamic Republic. More than a quarter billion dollars in cash had passed through Rickman’s hands during his tenure as the master of black ops and no one with a shred of sense wanted to know the details of how that money had been spent.

At first glance it looks as if Rickman has been kidnapped, but Rapp knows certain things about his old friend that cause him to wonder if something more disturbing isn’t afoot. Irene Kennedy, the director of the CIA, has ordered Rapp to find Rickman at all costs. Rapp must navigate the ever-shifting landscape of Afghanistan as the Taliban, Iranians, Pakistanis and Russians all plot to claim their piece of the war torn state.

With Afghanistan crumbling around him, Rapp must be as ruthless as his enemies and as deceitful as people in his own government if he has any hopes of completing his mission.

Enlightening

i now know the definition of a page turner. My only advice to new readers is to find a comfortable space and clear your schedule.

Jut a great adventure!

Wanted to be in the truck listening . Couldn't wait for the ending, but then was pissed that it was over!

must read

Would you listen to The Last Man again? Why?

I plan to listen to this again. It's a page turner and wonderfully performed

One of the best!

I have one more left to read in the series and this one was top two. I am amazed that the series is so consistently good.

Another excellant book by the author.

Where does The Last Man rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Come on! This is a silly question to ask anyone.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, character well developed, action keeps the story moving.

What about George Guidall’s performance did you like?

Mr. Guidall I will rate. He's in the top two or three readers I've have the pleasure to listen to and an author has the good luck to have perform his/her book.

One of Vince Flynn's Best

This is hands down one of Vince Flynn's best novels yet! It is a great comeback from the last Mitch Rapp book Kill Shot, which in my opinion was a bit of a disappointment. Mitch and Hurley live up to their reputation making this a great listen. I simply could not stop listening. So if you like the MItch Rapp series or if you are looking for a great listen with a lost of action from start to finish then this is the book for you. Warning, those adverse to a lot of violence may find this book offensive. Everyone else, you can't go wrong with this choice.

A fun listen Joe , Skipy and a diverse cast.

The stories in this series are very creative and fun to listen to. I can't wait for the next one.

Mitch Rapp is “The Last Man”.

Another exciting Mitch Rapp story. I love this series. I’m about to start listening to “The Survivor” right now.

Another home run

Whenever I consider writing the novel or action book I've got in my head I listen to one of this guys books and lay my pen back down. Brilliant on all levels!

A great political thriller.

What made the experience of listening to The Last Man the most enjoyable?

...but I expected more from the story that's why I give it a four.
