About this listen
The Last Centurion is a memoir of one possible future, a world that is a darkling mirror of our own. Written "blog-style", it pulls no punches in its descriptions of junk science, bad strategy, and organic farming.
©2008 John Ringo (P)2008 Brilliance Audio, Inc.Critic reviews
Each disaster is bad enough, combined they are horrible.
The actions of our hero, while not always heroic are at least human.
While I don't agree fully with the author's politics, the book is well written. One possible future? Who knows.
The hero's take on liberals, global warming and government made me chuckle. Not saying he's wrong, I've heard far stronger from politicians.
I'd thoroughly recommend this book, one of John Ringo's best books to date.
An excellent book

Would you listen to The Last Centurion again? Why?
Yes! I'm on my 5th replay. It's funny, thought-provoking and helped me get through my GCSE Pyschology by giving me examples of a concept being discussed but not being at all boring.It's engaging, good listening whether on a car journey or while doing housework, and the narrator gives the work life really well, not a monotone the way some narrators do.
This was my second ever purchase on Audible, and while other audiobooks have come and gone, this is still on my iPod and still being listened too.
This is the audiobook that had me trying to convert everyone I met to audiobooks.
What other book might you compare The Last Centurion to, and why?
It's a little like John Scalzi's Redshirts, as I said in my review of that book, but superior in my opinion.What does Dan John Miller bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Oh man. Attitude. Half the humor is in his emphasis, how he portrays the switch from sarcasm to deadpan.If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
"We are the Last Centurions, and this Rome America shall not fall." Which is the in-story tagline for the "Centurions" TV show and the last line of the book.Any additional comments?
I cannot emphasize how much I love this book. I've bought the paperback as a result of the audiobook to lend to people that won't try audiobooks. This book is post-apocalyptic survival (without zombies) at its best.My one "re-listen" ! Zombie-free Apocalypse

Where does The Last Centurion rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
IN this genre, somewhere in the middleAny additional comments?
I got the book because of the negative 'don't get this because its right wing' nonsense posted by others. Its not right wing, it gives the authors opinion on the sacred cows of Global Warming, gender politics etc. Forget the left/right rubbish and enjoy the action story it is.Good stuff
