As per the comments section… I really don’t understand why The Last Centurion hasn’t been done already: I’ve read it several times. Basically, imagine a future with a combination mini Ice Age and a really, really, really bad flu epidemic. Then toss a bunch of American troops in the middle of the collapsing Middle East who are trying to get out of there. Now have John Ringo write it, as only a right-of-center dude who knows that he’s selling the book to Baen can do. That’s this book.
And so, adieu to For Love of Mother-Not.
came in the mail today, and goodness knows that I could use turning my brain off wrt political stuff for a couple of hours, so I’m reading it. Pretty good; I like the blog-centric formula to it, and the military language sounds right… to a guy who’s never been in the military, at least. I figure that somebody would have yelled at John Ringo by now if he was making it all up, though.
