Product Description

Product Description

632 AD. Deep within the Uranah Valley of Mount Arafat, the prophet Mohammed shares with his closest companions a final and startling revelation. Within days, he is dead.
September, 1789. US minister to France, Thomas Jefferson, charged with forging a truce with the violent Muslim pirates of the Barbary Coast, makes a shocking discovery: one that could forever impact the world's relationship with Islam.
Present day. When a car bomb explodes outside a Parisian cafe, Scot Harvath is thrust back into the life he has tried so desperately to leave behind. Saving the intended victim of the attack, Harvath becomes party to an amazing and perilous race to uncover a secret so powerful that militant Islam could be defeated once and for all without firing another shot or dropping another bomb.
But, as desperate as the US government is to have the information brought to light, there are powerful forces just as determined that Mohammed's mysterious final revelation remain hidden forever.

Format:Hardcover
Another great thriller from Brad Thor, this time tackling a very touchy subject but he pulls it of with some very good twists and continues development of the Scott Harvath character.

Only negative is the ending which literally just ended, no clues to whats coming next or resolution of what has just happened.

If you like Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan or Vince Flynn's books then this is a most enjoyable series to start reading. All the books are very good and very enjoyable.

Now, I've got to say I hadn't heard of either Brad Thor or his book The Last Patriot, its only after I'd read it and I went on amazon.co.uk to see if there was anything else of his I could read, did I find out he's rather sucessful lol. Needless to say I found 6 books in the Scot Harvath series. Now I didn't know the book I was reading was part of a series and while there was the odd reference to something that had gone on before it wasn't like I was missing out, I'm currently toying with buying the rest.

In this book you go from 632 A.D right up to the current time, very much the same way that Kate Mosse did with labyrinth. In fact to me this story felt like it was the best bits of Daniel Silva, Sam Bourne, Scott Marianni, and Kate Mosse all in one book.

I can't in all honesty say I was hooked from page one, as I wasn't. Now that's not the authors fault or a fault with the book. It was because when I started reading it I was already in the juicy bit of Blindsighted by Karin Slaughter. So I started it and then put it down until I'd finished finding out what happened to Sara and Jeffery. Once I'd finished that though I got really into it. There are loads of thrillers out there so to stand out takes an awful lot and this manages it.

As I said further up this page, it reminds me of books by of Daniel Silva, Sam Bourne, Scott Marianni, and Kate Mosse. That's a good thing though there are loads of books out there trying to be the next Da Vinci code. This is where Brad Thor has worked his magic, the last patriot is fast paced and keeps you reading long after you planned on putting it down. But Brad Thor hasn't gone down the traditional baddies route like the Nazi's or some secret religious sect. No he's managed to tap into the current political climate and come out with something new, and at the moment this is something that's both rare and enjoyable.

The only part I thought was a bit of a stretch was the ending; I felt it was a little weak in comparison with the rest of the book. Although saying that, I don't think I could have come up with a better ending, It most likely is me expecting too much, as sometimes happens when I get a little too caught up in what I happen to be reading and don't like the fact it's come to an end, I can certainly see why this book was a New York Times No1 Bestseller.

Thor ** 28 July 2010
Format:Paperback
This is his worst book by some way. He tryed a new direction and did not pull it of. The hero is in his 4th different job of sorts and is now blundering into gun fights on his holidays, the author needs to decide where he is going with this or bring it to an end.
