Product Description

When Secret Intelligence Service deniable operator Nick Stone aborts an officially sanctioned assassination attempt at the Houses of Parliament, having realised who the target is, he is given a chilling ultimatum by his bosses: fly to Panama and finish the job, or Kelly, the 11-year-old orphan in his guardianship, will be killed.

As someone who is virtually housebound, I get to read an awful lot of books (and a lot of awful books!) so I know a good one when I see it. I always buy the new Andy McNab when it comes out, and I haven't been disappointed yet. Same this time. "Last Light" is a phenomenal read. Gutsy, credible, you really think you're living the action every inch of the way. But there's more to this book than blood and bullets. The characters, especially Aaron I thought, are really vibrant, living people. You care about what happens to them. Well done Andy on another magnificent achievement. I know they don't put books like this in for the Booker Prize and things like that, but they jolly well ought to. Nick Stone would win hands down.

Last Light is definitely McNab's best yet. From its breathtakingly audacious opening to its surprisingly poignant conclusion, this book is a winner.

The thrills are here in droves, of course. So's the tradecraft, and the McNab hallmark gifts of absolute authenticity and relentless excitement. But the real plus for me, this time around, is that McNab dares to take his hero to the kind of psychological low that we haven't seen in thriller fiction since John Le Carre's Spy Who Came In From The Cold, and that makes the tension, both in London and the Panama jungle, almost unbearable.

Nick Stone is a satisfyingly complex character, who becomes more interesting with every novel. He is the guy who does the dirty jobs that we need him to do - and he pays the price.

Can't wait for the next one.

Pure Realism 30 Oct 2001
Format:Hardcover
McNab (actually I should probably call him Mr. McNab) just gets better and better. What I admire about this guy is that he was not put on this earth to be a novelist. If it wasn't for Bravo Two Zero he'd probably be a bodyguard to some Sheikh in Saudi Arabia. But he has fashioned a new career and he gets refreshingly better with every sip. Last Light is a real paradox - it's incredibly slowly paced but never bores you. You'd think you'd get bored of ten pages of surveillance in the Jungle in Panama but you don't. I believe this is because the reader knows in the back of his mind that Mr. McNab has definitively been there and done that before. He was probably stalking Noriega in Panama in 1988. So the realism on each page absolutely screams back at you. The other great thing about these novels is that the central character - Nick Stone - is not some Ninja king who can kung fu fifteen opponents while picking his nose. He gets scared, he gets hurt, and he's not a particularly likeable character. But, bejesus he's believable. And for that reason alone this book is worth reading. The special forces have become so romanticised in the mass media (especially in light of current events), that I think Mr. McNab and his books should be required reading in order to understand that a small group of men - however well trained - cannot save the world from terrorism. After all, they're only humans. And there's no doubt that Nick Stone is human.

Good McNab read.
Typical McNab, packed full of action along technical and operational details. Storyline may not be one of the best (and that's only my opinion) but still a cracking good read... Read more

Dull!
I found this book extremely boring after a while as it is slow. 100 pages in and hardly anything had happened. For action packed thrillers, I would recommend Chris ryan books.
