The Last Christmas: A Repairman Jack Novel

Repairman Jack Series, Book 16

De: F. Paul Wilson

Narrado por: Jeffrey Kafer

Jack is back.

Wilson never said he was through with Repairman Jack. He said he was through turning in a new novel every year. He also said when a story came along that was right for Jack, he’d write it.

The Last Christmas is that story.

It’s late December between Ground Zero and Fatal Error, a winter of discontent for Jack who’s perhaps spending too much time hanging at Julio’s. An old contact, Edward Burkes, convinces him to take on a missing-person fix. As usual, nothing is as it seems, and the missing person isn’t exactly a person. In fact, it’s like nothing anyone has ever seen.

And in the middle of all this, the mysterious Madame de Medici hires him to safeguard a valuable object. Simple, right?

Not even close.

Yep, Jack is back and, as usual, weird trouble is on his heels.

Repairman Jack is back …

I really enjoyed this book. I read a few of these Repairman Jack books years ago and quite frankly forgot just how good they are. If you like thrillers with a touch of the supernatural I highly recommend any of the Repairman Jack books. There are 16 to choose from but this most recent is one of the best. I will definitely be reading more of these in the future,

Simply Bravo!

LOVED, LOVED LOVED IT! The story line developed and moved so quickly, I didnt dare put it down! From begining to end, exciting, captivating and climactic. I hope this is a new beginning in stories Mr. Wilson has, transcribing RJ. fix-its! Bravo again!

A fair continuation.

Though this book was a little disappointing, I had been hoping to have something that picked up post-Nightworld, the story was definitely a fun ride. I image Wilson will likely do additional stories focusing on all the Infernals in the future.

Jack Is back

I really like this story. I was a little put off by it taking place before "Night World" but since it was a self contained story and not part of the world shattering events, it turned out much better than I figured it would. The Jack books seem better to me than the Adversary cycle. It's really hard to keep up when its a "after the fact" story because these new characters are introduced and could have / should have played a roll in the over all Jack arc with "The Other". I liked the performance with the exception of the reader mispronouncing Glaeken as Gleeken. This was a different performer from the rest of the series.

An unexpected meeting with old friends

This "lost" chapter of the Repairman Jack series was a pleasure to listen to. It felt like a side story, but also one that held great importance. An importance that we have not yet heard the last of.

It was very satisfying to revisit old friends and I can only hope that we will meet again soon.

The story is probably 75% self contained and 25% dependant on the rest of the Repairman Jack saga.

Highly enjoyable. Recommended.

More Jack?

Repairman Jack is, for me, a top five all time favorite character. So finding out there was another one in the way was like, well…getting a Christmas present you weren’t expecting. Seeing old friends again is never a bad thing, and if you’re new to Jack I envy you your time with him.

Jack's Back!

What a great Christmas present from F. Paul Wilson. I have been a huge fan of Wilson's Adversary Cycle and Repairman Jack novels for decades now. After reading the superbly done revised version of Nightworld several years ago I was resigned to the story arc being complete. I never thought about the possibility of Wilson writing stand alone Repairman Jack books set within the time frame of previous books. Being reunited with Jack, Gia, Julio, Abe and Glaeken was like old home week. This book did not skip a beat and has me hopeful that Wilson will continue write more stories with Jack and these characters. Thank you F. Paul Wilson!

Great series

overall my favorite series of books this one I guess fishing out the repair man jack books I wish it kept going

great story but...

the narrator is nowhere as good as any of the past ones. pronouncing many of the common vocabulary for Jacks books incorrectly. sigh i have to say i do love the story..

Another Good One By F. Paul

The books in this series are always barn burner page turners! They draw the reader in instantly and keeps them intrigued throughout the entire book! This is no exception and is very well written with great characters that are well introduced and developed throughout the story! You will have trouble putting this story down until you have finished it! Start reading with the confidence that you are in for a fantastic story!!! The narrating by Jeffrey is spot on.
