The Last Revenge

The Last War #7

by Peter Bostrom

About the author

Peter Bostrom is the pen name of Nick Webb as he co-writes Science Fiction with other authors.

Nick lives in Seattle, and someday wants to be the first man to die on Mars. Not like a heroic, failed-Nasa-mission style death where he plummets through the thin atmosphere and crashes into Olympus Mons, but a calm one in a hospital with plenty of fantasy books to ease his passing.

Reviews

[Michael Keller · Rating 3 out of 5]

The characters are a bit flat, underdeveloped and weak. The storyline was a bit short and the ending cliffhanger was more of a puddle jump. It was readable, just not what I've come to expect. Maybe The Last War Series #8 will catch up with the series' potential.

[Matthew · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was ... confusing. If you changed the characters' names, it could almost be a different book entirely. I don't understand how this book fits into the previous 6, nor exactly what the authors were going for over the second half, especially the ending. If there are more books to come (book was released in 2020, I'm writing this review a few days from 2024) then I think the 2nd half could be viewed as settings up a twist in the plot, but as it is, it just stands as a very weird and not at all pleasing ending to what was a fantastic series otherwise.

Meaningless with no understandable conclusion

There was no true resolution at the end. The end itself was confusing and left you hanging with no explanation. Too many things not resolved
