The Last Orphan

An Orphan X Novel, Book 8

De: Gregg Hurwitz

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The audiobook features a bonus conversation between Gregg Hurwitz and #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner, author of the award-winning Detective D. D. Warren novels.

Evan Smoak returns in The Last Orphan, the next New York Times bestselling Orphan X thriller—when everything changes and everything is at risk.

As a child, Evan Smoak was plucked out of a group home, raised and trained as an off-the-books assassin for the government as part of the Orphan program. When he broke with the program and went deep underground, he left with a lot of secrets in his head that the government would do anything to make sure never got out.

When he remade himself as The Nowhere Man, dedicated to helping the most desperate in their times of trouble, Evan found himself slowly back on the government's radar. Having eliminated most of the Orphans in the program, the government will stop at nothing to eliminate the threat they see in Evan. But Orphan X has always been several steps ahead of his pursuers.

Until he makes one little mistake...

Now the president has him in her control and offers Evan a deal—eliminate a rich, powerful man she says is too dangerous to live and, in turn, she'll let Evan survive. But when Evan left the Program he swore to only use his skills against those who really deserve it. Now he has to decide what's more important—his principles or his life.

Loved it!!

Per usual I loved this Orphan X book and can’t wait for the next one and beyond!!!

Great to see Joey back!!! Her, X, and Dog the dog are the absolute best when they’re together… and not to leave out Candy keepin’ everybody on their toes!!!

Still working.

Still working the premise. Smoke doesn’t disappoint. Looks like Mia has reached the end and a old relationship returns.

As always!!

So sad it’s over. What an amazing series!! Great tie on, character returns and action. Thanks for the ride!

Lags

While a good book on its merits, it doesn’t rise to my normal Xpectations. Good, yet not great.

still great

8 books in and still great. this one feels like a James bond movie. evan still rocks. would like more.

Another great Orphan X installment

I love the orphan X series. The first one I bought by mistake and couldn't put it down.
I listened to all the available books at the time and now I eagerly await each new adventure.
Scott Brick is phenomenal, as always. Hell, I've bought audio books based on just the fact that he narrated them :)

Can't. Wait.

Great Read

Did not disappoint. Excellent read by Scott Brick. Looking forward to the next Orphan X. Want to see more of Candy and Joey.

Orphan X is the man!

The writing is superb. The story is fantastic. The narrator is Scott Brick, which is to say magnificent.
I hope there will be many more books to come.

Why?

I have rated the book but why is it now required to provide written review?

A fun one!

Really, really enjoyed this installment. So many fun moments with root beer floats, Joey and Tommy. Can’t wait for the next one.
