The Last Empire is a six-book series by Nick S. Thomas, all published in 2019. The story follows a marine caught up in the political and military turmoil of a crumbling interstellar empire. Starting with Marine, the series moves through Awakening, Uprising, and Betrayal as the situation deteriorates, before reaching its conclusion with Saviour and Outcast.
The rapid release of all six books in a single year is typical of Thomas’s prolific output. The series combines his military fiction strengths with a space opera setting where loyalty, rebellion, and survival are constant concerns. It was one of several series Thomas launched in 2019, a particularly productive year for him.
