There was a lot going on in this book but you were never very far away from the main story line which keeps the reader from getting lost. Throughly enjoyed the book.

This is the first time I have read this kind of work. I got this book from a friend and I couldnt put it down. It rates right up there with Lee Child and great without the gory sex details. I will read this book again. I gave a copy to my adult son who is working his way thru school to become a police officer.

I am a huge David Baldacci fan- he knows how to write suspensful thrillers like no one else. He does an enormous amount of research, keeps you on the edge-of-your-seat and creates multi-dimensional characters and layered plots that twist and turn at all the right moments.

While Last Man Standing isn't my favorite Baldacci novel, it is certainly a very good book and I recommend it to Baldacci fans, as well as fans of this genre in general.

When Web London, the consummate hero and part of the FBI's elite Hostage Rescue Team, completely freezes on a mission that takes out his entire team, he tries to find the group or person who set him up, in addition to the reason why he frooze. Meanwhile, the D.C. druglord known as Big F. wants to find out what happened to his "brother" Kevin who was caught up in the mission that wiped out Web's team...but is he being set up too? Toss in the radical Free Society and their fanatic beliefs, and the motive of revenge on behalf of each of the characters, and you have one complicated, twisted, yet intriguing plot. From the ghetto of D.C. to horse-country farm life, "Last Man Standing" truly delivers!

Fast paced, adventure. My first time reading something written by Mr.Baldacci. I will read more.

Well done, Mr. Baldacci, I certainly enjoyed this novel.

While I agree with other reviews here that Last Man Standing is quite long and chock-full of characters, it's an entertaining novel overall. In spite of the number of characters, they are easy to track, thanks to the extent to which they are developed.

The protagonist, HRT Web London, is complicated, troubled, but steadfast, and his form never deviates... all the way to the last page.

For those of you who found there to be too many characters or thought that this book was "difficult to follow," I advise you to stay away from Robert Ludlum.

Looking forward to further Baldaccis!
