What could possibly go wrong?

Jamestown promises to be a history lover’s dream, a reality series featuring 15 contestants who will spend six months living in 17th century conditions, their ability to adapt and overcome daily hardship judged by millions of TV viewers. Supplies will be replenished, and a medical officer will be on hand to ensure everyone’s well-being. Lucrative cash prizes will be awarded at the end.

Except that the colonists find themselves abandoned on an uncharted island on the first morning of the shoot, lacking sufficient provisions or a means of communication with the outside world. Tensions begin to mount—and bodies start to pile up.

Each contestant has reason to fear for their life since everyone on the island hides a dangerous secret, and any one of them might have motive to kill.

“The Lost Colony” by Irina Shapiro is a novel that blends historical fiction with reality TV elements. The story revolves around fifteen contestants who participate in a unique reality series where they must live for six months under seventeenth-century conditions, testing their ability to adapt and overcome daily challenges.

Despite the intriguing premise, which combines historical reenactment with modern entertainment, the book fails to deliver a satisfying experience. The narrative tends to drag, losing momentum and failing to maintain reader interest. The plot’s pacing is problematic, with the story seeming to meander without a clear direction.

While the concept of contestants struggling in a historical setting sounds promising, the execution falls short of expectations. The book draws comparisons to movies featuring contestants stranded on deserted islands fighting for survival, but it doesn’t capitalize on this potential for excitement or character development.
Unfortunately, the ending is particularly disappointing, failing to provide a satisfying conclusion to the story. Overall, while “The Lost Colony” presents an interesting concept, it struggles to maintain engagement throughout and ultimately fails to meet the expectations set by its premise.

I Felt Lost Reading The Lost Colony

I am not an easy customer, but I was enthralled by this mystery. The plot is well constructed and well developed, and the characters are credible. It's fresh and original, and never gives in to the usual, expected tropes of the genre, which makes me abandon many other audio books.
It held my interest until the end, and proved quite enjoyable!

A Gripping Mystery

The women reading was not up to the job. The story would have been so much more interesting had the performer not used a constantly droning voice. While I understand that she was trying to portray the depths of tiredness and despair it only made me despair of being able to finish the book!

Monotonous

The narrator doesn't do male voices very well, so all the men sounded to similar to distinguish. A lot of the details were hard to buy, at least for me. That said, the plot and characters were good and believable. no Mary Sue chrs here.

good story, but a little bit contrived

The story was very compelling. At a certain point I couldn’t stop listening because I had to finish the book and find out what happened. At times, it was really hard to hear what they went through and I almost wished I hadn’t read it. In the end, I was glad I did though.

Wow, finished it as quickly as I could

I like the reader and storyline. I did wish that some of the voices had more difference as some were very similar and hard to distinguish while listening. Overall good story though.
