Acerca de esta escucha

In a desert wasteland, framed by the shimmering fastness of the Judean Hills, lie the ruins of the fortress called Masada. Overlooking the Dead Sea and the salt mines that were once Sodom and Gomorrah, the stone palaces of Herod brood a thousand feet above the desolate countryside, where the Jewish revolt against Rome of AD 70 ended in the self-immolation of 960 people. According to legend, the defenders of Masada, rather than be taken prisoner by the Roman Tenth Legion, killed themselves, their wives, and their children the night before the Romans took the fortress.

David Hall, an American nuclear engineer, arrives in Israel on a mission of truth. Believing that the defenders killed themselves to protect a great secret, Hall plans to explore the heavily guarded site and, he hopes, discover the real reasons behind the dramatic end of the Roman siege. Hall is shadowed by an Israeli archaeologist, Judith Ressner, an attractive but reserved professor with an agenda of her own. There is more than history hidden within the mountain, and Hall soon finds himself the target of ferocious Israeli security forces bent on defeating his quest, who will stop at nothing to protect Masada from intruders.

Combining dynamic history with a highly charged contemporary story of adventure and espionage, The Last Man is a thought-provoking thriller of the Middle East, past and present.

I'm a fan of P.T. Deutermann, but this book was a disappointment. I couldn't tell if he was trying to write a modern "Taming of the Shrew" or write a adventure novel -- neither worked. The narrator did OK on some voices but he made the Israeli "Shrew" sound like an Indian male. I found it very distracting and irritating.

I'd pass on this book

Disappointed

I visited it 15 years ago and the writer painted a great word picture. Recommended as a nice historical novel.

Masada came alive in this story.

This was as well written book that kept a solid plot moving along at a good clip. The main 'twist' of the plot was somewhat predictable, but that didn't detract from an enjoyable story with well developed characters. Easy to listen to, I would recommend this title for a long road trip listen.

Solid writing and good story at a nice pace

Excellent story and narration. I’ve found a another good author in Mr Deutermann. Continue to grow in respect for Mr Lane’s narration. Overall a great book.

Excellent

The first part of the book caused me to wonder just how the story could hold my attention long enough to finish. Then the story slowly develops into an engrossing tale that had me wondering how various situations would be resolved. The “happy ending” seemed like it would never occur and even when it did one is still left with the feeling in may only be transitory.

Somewhat of a slow starter

Loved it. It held me from beginning to end, one of those books I had to force my self to step away from to sleep.

Exciting from beginning to end

Chapters 1 through 3 were very slow. The book began to really take off around chapter 4 and was very interesting after. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Started slow but soon took off

Two years ago I had my first trip outside the United States. I went to Israel with a friend of mine and spent ten days driving around the country. I spent an entire day up on Masada in that oven. As I listened to this story, I could see and feel in my minds eye that hot mountain top. Of course we only saw what was open to tourists but the author brought me back to that special place with this wonderful story.
I have listened to all this author’s war two naval stories. Mr. Deutermann is a top flight storyteller and I would highly recommend this and all his books.

Wonderful contemporary story

I dont normally leave reviews, just busy I guess. but jumping into this book suprised me thoroughly and left me feeling content. enjoy it!

I am a fan of P T Deutermann but just couldn’t get any traction on this one. Did not care for either of the main characters and because of that only had little concern for their fate. As expected all turned out well in the end and I moved on and never looked back. I will continue to follow Deutermann hoping this is just a speed bump on the writing road.
