Antarktos Saga #5
The Last Hunter: Onslaught
The past few years have been a mixture of torture, painful growth and sometimes, pushing its way through all the darkness—joy. I have made friends and allies, brothers and sisters, mentors and...Kainda, who is something else entirely. But someone is missing, someone whose memory saved me from despair—Mirabelle Whitney, my hope. So while the human race prepares to defend itself, I ride toward the encroaching Nephilim army intending to save Mira, return to our feeble base and lead the charge against those who plan to wipe the human race from the face of the Earth.
It sounds like an impossible plan, and maybe it is, but if we’re going to die, we’re going to die like hunters—boldly and bravely. More than that, we’re going to die together, as a united race facing a common enemy. Nationality no longer matters. Ancient grudges are forgotten. The human race must resist as one, or face extinction. And now it falls to me, along with Kainda, Em, Mira, Kat, Merrill, Aimee and Luca, to light the path for humanity in our darkest hour. Harnessing the power of the ancient Jericho shofar, we must prevent Nephil, the most ancient and evil of the Nephilim from possessing my body and using its supernatural abilities against mankind.
The odds are stacked against victory. The Nephilim out-size, out-power and outnumber us ten to one, but we will fight to the last, the very last, so help me God.
I am Solomon Ull Vincent—the Last Hunter and King of Antarktos—and I am prepared to face my fate.

I just finished the final book in The Last Hunter series by Jeremy Robinson.
I had already turned off my laptop, but I had to log back in to say that it's easily the best saga I have read in a long time, and in my opinion his best work, and that says a lot.
It is equal first favourite epic along with King's The Dark Tower.
Brilliant. Just brilliant.
Ten stars out of five.

The first book was the best I think
But I read them all I rezlly.enjoyed the story but there were times I had to step away because it was just so intense. The battles were hard to read, and the gods were just unadulterated evil. Too much death and disgusting details. But it was really interesting. Its basically the good vs evil concept and the words I forgive you being the ultimate healer. I loved the Garden of Eden scenario that was depicted and Cronos. That helped bring the book into a better place, literally and figuratively. The final battle was epic for sure. I honestly had no idea how it would end. I will read the next Anatarkos Rising but I may take a small break. Eager to hear about King Solomon's family!

Really enjoyed this series of books set in the fascinating continent of Antarktos.

This book was so amazing! The ending was great and i loved all of the Christian representation in it! The way forgiveness played a part in the series was so great and inspiring. Loved this series and this book gave it such a great ending!

A great end to a great series I loved it. Great characters and world building I recommend to all fantasy fans

All's well that ends well...
It's been a long, adventurous and painfully beautiful journey with Antarktos Saga.
Being a reader is painful in this sense that you want to know the ending and you don't. You want to stay longer with the characters but you can't as there are other books in your to-read list. You don't want to put down but you have to. It's painful that after finishing an amazing journey with some amazing characters, you have to pick another book.
Being a reader is painful because you fall in love thousands times but love never really can get hold of you.
Stay well dear Schwartz, Kainda, Clarks, Vincents, Belgrave, Hades, Xin, Luca, Em, Mira, Kat, Wright and every brave soldier we lost in the Great War and after finishing the story.
Xin , you've done something unexceptional. We love you. You are one of us. You are US.

Firstly, wow that epilogue absolutely destroyed me I cried multiple times reading this book.
This series has some of the most unique and well thought out world building and character development I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing.
I absolutely adore the multiple character redemptions we get in this and I’m probably biased (I love OP main characters) but the way Sol used his powers and gradually got stronger was awesome.
Such a great series. 5 stars

Really really disappointed with this series, and I even had the great R.C. Bray reading it to me.
If I knew it would have been more of a kids (teens) book I would have just not wasted a credit. But I’ve listened to many from Jeremy Robinson and I guess thought it would be more like them.
The worst part about the series is how the main character has this stupid moral code where he won’t kill a human, regardless of circumstances! He’s going to kill you… nope, not gonna do it. He’s going to kill the people you love… yea but.. it’s another human. He’s going to kill billions of other HUMANS!… no, there just might be a sliver of good in there somewhere. It’s just too much. If you can handle the movies where the victim finally gets the upper hand on the psychotic killer only to then NOT pull the trigger, or even just throw the gun away, maybe you’ll like this book..?
The second worst part is just the inconsistencies.
The kid has a perfect memory (I won’t even get into how he can, in seconds, know random facts from subjects that a thirteen year old would not have read up on, but he has a perfect working knowledge of, because he read a book on the subject at some point in his THIRTEEN YEARS!)
But… just because he spent some time in the dark killing monsters to survive and is treated like a dog, he can’t even remember or recognize his parents?… then it all comes back when he sees a woman that he hardly knows who he remembers from his actual birth….?
And his powers. One minute he’s being bested by a monster while trying to fight without powers, then it’s it’s as simple as thinking it dead. At one point he can simply melt the gold band that protects the monsters, and at other points he can’t get them off. At one point he can’t manage to fight the things, but he can, in an instant, create a 200ft hole to fall through to get away, and close it up. But can’t use that same control of the earth to just simply smash the monsters? He is just constantly completely weak and unable, but miraculously pulls himself up and out and is all knowing, all powerful, sometimes “subconsciously”
It’s all just too much for me, as an adult.
Maybe if I was thirteen… or ten? I don’t know

When I finished the first book I seriously considered not reading the rest, the reviews encouraged me to try the second. By the time I finished the second book, there was no chance I wasn't reading all five. Sometimes, the fact that Solomon remains human with empathy bothered me at first, because I am not always a "good guys must prevail" type of reader and often enjoy darker endings, so I thought it would have been best if Sol remained as Ull and dominated the underground, and led the charge against the human race, making this more brutal and violent. However I realized on book three this would have been the wrong call, and I very much enjoyed the personal battles he faces to not be consumed, and eventually gaining the strength to utilize Ull inside of him instead of be consumed by him. Absolutely loved how the ancient gods across all religions and regions were thrown into the mix, I actually wish there was more representation from some of them like Thor, Loki, Ares, etc. because they can just be such badass characters, however I have no complaints how they were represented in the books. Overall, 5/5 for the series and story, finishing this was bitter/sweet as I would read any amount of books that came out to expand this story.

Awesome!
You must read the preceding books in The Last Hunter series, but ALL the books in this series are terrific! You will not be disappointed. Reminiscent of Jurassic Park in that there’s just enough “what if” science stuff that it sucks you in to suspending your disbelief. This story highlights how rapid environmental changes can change everything and everything old becomes new again. Well done Mr. Robinson!

The end is here
A satisfying conclusion to the Last Hunter saga, well spl*s at any rate. There is the spin off The Last Valkarie , but that*s s different tale entirely. Here there are no loose ends, no little things that need answering. Just a good conclusion to a entertaining tale. If you want to read start with the first book and go from there to get the complete picture.

Jumping into Jeremy Robinson's earlier work has not left me disappointed. I love the flow of this whole collection, with each book leading to a climax before moving on to the next. While it could've been one giant book, it flows better the way it's written. Wonderful journey to the depths of unexplored Antarktos!
February 1, 2021
A really fun conclusion to the series. I enjoyed the whole thing overall. I think I appreciate the single hitters that Jeremy Robinson creates, but this was certainly an original story with very wild plots and subplots. I rather liked it.
March 18, 2022
The Nepheline army approaches. Will those who follow King Solomon and the remnants of the U.S. Military be enough to stop the invading force? Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion. Hope, faith, passion, and focus bonded with Sol; family. All-in-all an excellent series. I enjoyed it very much.

Fantastic finish to an amazing story. Loved everything about it. The Gods, the monsters the hero who’s biggest super power is empathy and forgiveness. Truly beautiful inspiring and full of trademark Robinson action and humor.

I hated to put this story down. I am sad to have to say goodbye. Excellent series!

Published 2012. So, the series wrap up and the lasting impression over all was the battle scenes were good and the rest only so-so. Maybe I expected more from this.

Loved the series!

Loved all 5 books!
I generally stop at book 3 of most sagas but I read all 5 of these non stop. It has everything a reader could want. And more action than my heart could handle 😊

Thank you Jeremy Robinson. The experience was captivating, positively educative and to a large extent spiritually relevant. There is indeed power in storytelling.
August 23, 2021
I was hooked after reading Antarktos Rising, and quickly consumed the entire Hunter saga. Definitely a great adventure!

This series just went downhill for me, in general... wouldn't have stuck it out, if not for the Buddy Read, and I hadn't gotten the omnibus edition...
May 26, 2022
A good and satisfying conclusion to a rollercoaster ride of a series. This was a particularly terrific value on Audible, with 1 credit for 5 novels.

This series is fast moving and exciting. Can't wait for the next book to come out.

I have read nearly all of Jeremy's books (still working on Nemesis, but it's coming!!) and this final book of this series was my favorite! I absolutely loved it. I couldn't get through it fast enough, and spent a few nights reading well past when I should have gone to sleep. It was that good.
The series sucked me in from the beginning. I loved Antarktos Rising and when The Last Hunter came out, I loved how the series tied into that first standalone book. I love to read and have read thousands of books and am so pleased I found this author when I did.
I have a vivid imagination when I read, and I can picture so much of these books, especially the scenes from Onslaught in my head. I can see the Nephilim flying and the blood red hair and it makes reading it that much better. It helps that Jeremy has such descriptiveness in the story it's like you can put yourself there.
I don't like posting spoilers, however below is sort of one...
Spoiler!!! (sort of)
The heartache and the overall triumph is amazing and a fitting end to the series! I'd LOVE to see Solomen come back later, but if not; the series ended on a great Epilogue!!! Definately a lesson we all should take and learn there!!
End of (sort of) Spoiler. :)
All in all if you haven't read the series, you should. It is well worth it. The great thing is, while the series is YA, all ages can and should enjoy. I convinced my daughter to read it and she's dying to finish the book she's on now to read Onslaught, she's grown to love the series as much or more than me. I forgot to tell her it was on our Kindles and she about choked when I told her! She promptly downloaded it and is due to start it soon... and keeps asking what happens. Nope, not telling her. She's 14 and has been reading them for a year, and I'm recommending it to my son, who's 11 and reads at a HS level, I think he'll really enjoy it, once he gets over the "mom read it, it can't be good" stage!
Once you read these, then pick up the rest of Jeremy's books, you won't be disappointed!!! Jeremy Robinson
