Publisher's summary

Complete Space Opera Series boxed set.

A young explorer finds an alien space pod in the frozen tundra, which leads to an interplanetary chase and space battle.

Plenty of action, epic original worldbuilding, and enjoyable moments with colorful characters. This series has all the right elements for a terrific alien contact space opera. And the ending is both surprising and satisfying!

This boxed set contains all three books in the Lost Colony Uprising series:

Book 1: Starship Relic

Ancient technology. Secret histories. And squids. In space.

Max is completing a survey in the barren, frozen north of planet Grailliyn, when he makes a startling discovery. There's a high-tech pod buried beneath the ice, and inside the pod is a young woman. She speaks his language, but with a strange accent.

The two are barely past awkward introductions when they are attacked. Max and his new friend are forced to flee. The worst part? They don't even know who is trying to kill them, or why.

Now, with assassins on their tail, the duo must find a way off the planet without blowing their cover. And then, if they can do that without getting eaten by space monsters, they might just find out the truth about their world.

Starship Relic is book one of the Lost Colony Uprising Trilogy, a sci-fi space opera adventure with spaceships, alien contact, deep conspiracies, wise-cracking characters, and lots of pew-pew (space battle action).

Book 2: Starship Invasion

Alien threats. Planetary invasion. And space squids.

When Snow was a young girl, she was cautioned against pressing big red buttons of any kind. As a responsible crew member of Starship Longissima, Snow took this warning to heart.

Then she forgot that promise, along with everything about her former life. When she was found by Max, asleep in the ice, neither of them had any idea what destructive events were about to be set in motion.

Now the red buttons (big ones) have been pressed, and there will be tragic consequences.

The planet of Grailliyn is suffering an invasion on a global scale.

With limited resources at hand, Snow and her new allies must find a way to stop the annihilation, or, failing that, evacuate as many of their people as possible before abandoning the planet of Grailliyn to the enemy, forever.

Book 3: Starship Overlords

Ancient alien technology. Unlikely allies. And a chance to strike back.

The twin planets of Grailliyn and Mega are once again under threat.

A new menace has arrived. A fleet of alien warships.

While the Earthlings continue to evacuate Grailliyn, Commander Carrack must call for help, enlisting potential new allies.

Meanwhile, Max, Snow, and the crew of the Dee-Dub continue searching for Alien technology. Their mission turns up an ancient secret that could change everything.

At last, the Earthlings may have a chance to strike back against the evil Overlords that threaten the entire galaxy.

Starship Overlords is book three of the Lost Colony Uprising Trilogy, a sci-fi space opera adventure with spaceships, alien contact, deep conspiracies, wise-cracking characters, and lots of pew-pew (space battle action).

Content rating: All ages, teen and up. Minimal language.

Very Entertaining

Very entertaining and good value for money to boot. OMG.... there are SO many weird and wonderful creatures in this box set. There is so much detail and action going on that l really just had to take the time to sit and listen, and listen l did. My favourite creature was Dooper the crustacean, l loved Snow and had to admire the Hunter that just would NOT give up.l fell in love with the android's as l am sure you will too. Recommended for young adults thru adventurous adults, syfy fans and and fantasy readers. This is a clean read. Narration suited all those differing characters, even Doozer..

Great

Enjoyed the book very much The story line was very interesting and the narrator was extremely good

Fun Trilogy

This was great! Yes, some of it seemed a little immature but I loved the story and the writing style of the author. The characters were fun and funny. I hope more books are coming from him.

A fun time for all.

Very good! I had a great time with this and I do recommend it highly.

Well...

It's a fun listen excepting for the acronyms and other jargon that everyone in the fictional world knows, but not the listener. Sometimes they get explained several chapters after use. The narrator is good with all the voices - the further into the series one gets, the more there are. Their distinct voices are the best way to identify them.

I was given this audiobook by the author for free and have voluntarily left this review (that doesn't get him off the hook for not explaining what 'HOSaS' means).

A Wonderful Read

With a great variety of characters and an interesting group of stories anyone who enjoys this genre will enjoy this series.

The Author has created a rewarding Science Fiction Audio book that will be enjoyed by fans of all ages.

Humorous, Intriguing Sci-fi

The author of this trilogy has a vivid imagination which he skillfully articulated providing me with illustrious world building visualizations. His diverse cast of creative, complex, multi-layered characters (human, alien, and AI) are colorful and likeable. The interactions of his characters were often quirky but convincing. The story was intriguing with entertaining twists and turns. The plot was well paced with action, adventure, suspense, mystery, space battles and levity. This trilogy provided me with hours of listening enjoyment. The narrator has a pleasant, clear voice with which he provided effortless transitions between the characters while expressing a wide range of emotions. I was provided a free review copy of this audio book and am voluntarily leaving this review.

Excellent Series

The whole story is great. You fall in love with the group of people, and if something happens you feel the loss of that character. When a book(s) can pull at your heart strings you know you found a great series. I found another author that kicks butt and with the narrator's performance who could as for a better combination.

juvenile

cuz the narration was excellent which is the only reason I was able to endure this don't get me wrong it's an excellent story if you're 12 years old but if you're older than that this can be very painful to endure.

Character driven space opera

Lost Colony Uprising has less space battles and more endearing characters than most current science fiction. With an intriguing storyline and imaginative aliens (especially Doozer),it is an entertaining space opera. The narrator does an excellent job with many characters, including humans, aliens, and androids.
