Publisher's summary

Can humanity survive on a new world?

On Eos, the last survivors of the Long Winter face their greatest challenge yet - and race to unravel the deepest secrets of the grid.

The last survivors of the human race escaped a ruined Earth. Their new homeworld - Eos - seemed perfect at first. Warm. Hospitable. Safe from the grid. But everything isn't as it seems.

The first colony of settlers - from the Carthage - have disappeared. Their settlement is still there, but everyone is gone. As James digs into the mystery of the lost colony, he discovers a series of spheres, buried on Eos. Are they the key to finding the lost colonists? Or are they responsible for their deaths?

Just as James is unraveling the secrets of the spheres, a storm hits Jericho City. Emma, recently elected mayor, struggles to lead her people to safety while James tries to make his way home. In the middle of the chaos, a new danger emerges - a threat no one saw coming.

With time running out to save the colonists, James and Emma face their hardest choice yet.

About THE LOST COLONY

So glad I finished....

I don't always read an entire series, even when I enjoyed the first one, but I am very glad I did this one. The ending had a true unexpected twist and I was blown away by it. I really felt satisfied by the ending. I also don't write many reviews. But I wanted others to know this was worth reading three books.

Keeps you thinking after your done.

one of my gauges for a good story is one that keeps you thinking long after your done. this story does that.

very engaging story

we read long winter and solar wars, so we were eager for the finale. the story was not predictable. very entertaining. some intellectual inconsistency in handling low tech versus high tech challenges

Awesome story

I somewhat expected parts to play out as the book played out, but there were some drastic unexpected, yet amazing twists that explain everything. Can’t wait for the next A.G. Riddle series.

Amazing!!

I would say that if you enjoy getting lost and laughing and crying with amazing characters. This is the book for you!!! Amazing book in the last trilogy. You need to read winter world and solar war before this one. Both are amazing as well. Keeps you on your feet.

Go with it!!

NOT A SPOILER…This book begins like many you have read…Go With It…you will be glad you did not stop. There are many twists and turns to make this a wonderful story! Riddle does a good job of writing a surprise at several spots. He created a great sequel read! The narration is stellar. Enjoy

I Love This Series And This Third Book Was Amazing

I've listened to the whole series twice now, and it just gets better. I may have loved it even more the second time.
The characters are excellently written, the storyline is ingenious, and the third book is mind blowing!
The performances in the audiobook are a perfect complement to this i.credible series. I will be listening to it again soon, guaranteed.
