About this listen
#1 Amazon Political Fiction Bestseller
The Very Last War plunges listeners into a gripping, relentless, and chillingly plausible tale of a near-future World War III.
A pivotal election revives freedom and self-governance in America, sending shockwaves across the globe and rattling four rival powers—European socialists, Chinese communists, Islamic radicals, and avaricious Russian leaders.
With dreams of world domination fading, they set aside differences and forge an alliance. Not to simply defeat America, but—with the help of a devastating new weapon—to erase it from the earth.
Outnumbered and alone, America answers with its own revolutionary weapon. But machines, no matter how intelligent, won’t be enough. Once again, survival will depend on something older. Something deeper.
The unbreakable American spirit.
In dimly lit halls of power, shadowy intrigues unfold. On sunlit battlefields, selfless heroism burns bright. Across North America, war rages from the frozen tundra of Alaska to the red clay of Alabama, from the mountains of Montana to the scorching deserts of Mexico.
If America falls, the free world falls with her.
A great generation will be needed.
But can America still produce greatness?
W. H. Hawthorne was born and raised in the Alaskan interior, where life echoes the self-reliance and rugged individualism envisioned by the Founders. He spent four decades designing autonomous robotic systems for DARPA, NASA, and other agencies. In The Very Last War, he fuses those experiences into a harrowingly authentic vision of the next world war—blending advanced technology, gritty realism, and a fierce celebration of Americanism.
The Very Last War isn’t just a story of survival—it’s a tribute to what makes America worth fighting for.
It’ll be fun. Seriously.

Story
Riding her Soul Horse, Danny, Deirdre Buford relentlessly pursues the men who took her sister through an America wrecked by the Great Virus, endless civil war and a collapse of the global order called the Breakdown. She’s forced by circumstances to ally with a nomadic photographer. His gentle decency moves her to the core, but her mission leads her away from the man she’s falling in love with and toward a confrontation with the people who hold her sister. To defeat them, she’ll need the help of the powerful Nations, a league of indigenous tribes.

Mandy Cramer has lived her entire life in a small lakeside town that is divided in two distinct groups: the working class, who live downtown, and the wealthy members of the ultra-exclusive Hawthorne Bluff Club. Details of the clubs one-hundred year history are scant, as the members are notoriously tight-lipped and the gates remain closed to outsiders. When Mandy accepts a position as a nanny for the club president's children, she discovers more secrets than she ever bargained for.

As the allied advance stormed up Italy to the very shadow of Monte Sole, Axis frustration over their retreat and the harassing Italian partisans reached its peak.

For a moment Wilson froze and looked at the white-helmeted pilot who sat high on the nose of the colossal fighter. Across the small void, he saw the pilot's eyes peer over his mask. Dark, chilling eyes. Wilson kicked right rudder to slide closer and jam any chance for a bandit gunshot. When the bandit pulled all the way over, almost on its back but in control, he cursed in frustration at what he knew was coming next.

Great story!
Absolutely loved the story told here. The character building was good without spending an excessive amount of time and dedication to it. There were a couple characters I connected with and felt invested in which made it fun! The reader did a good job and had some entertaining accents throughout the story
Great book overall and I hope there will be more
