À propos de cet audio
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

Histoire
The ice is coming. It was the last thing we expected, but the world is freezing. A new ice age has dawned. Billions have fled the glaciers. A cataclysmic war is coming. In orbit, a group of scientists are running the Winter Experiments, a last-ditch attempt to understand why the planet is cooling. None of the climate models they build make sense. But then they discover an anomaly, an unexplained variation in solar radiation...and something else. Close to the burning edge of the sun, they catch a fleeting glimpse of something that shouldn’t be there....

Dr. Tyson Klein is a quantum physicist who has dedicated his entire life to his research. At CERN, he analyses data generated by the Large Hadron Collider, the world's biggest and most powerful particle accelerator. Now, Ty believes he's found a pattern in its output. It looks like an organised data stream, being broadcast over what he calls a quantum radio. Could it be a signal from another universe? A message sent from the future? Or something else entirely?

From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

By the 3rd book the narration of some characters was flat, monotone and progressively annoying.
Good plot, and story though. Overall I enjoyed it.

The Lost colony is a story of the past, and the story of the future, a story of technology and a warning for the future
From the first page of this book, it will thrill you. It will keep you on the edge of your toes until the last page of this book. The greatest lesson that I learned from this book is that technology is a good thing, not if it harms human lives. What harms human lives is virtual reality or VR. It doesn't matter what darkness we endure, there is always a light at the other end of the tunnel. The greatest technology that we have is nature, nature is the worlds technology, and as a society, we should be getting more of it. Breathe in the fresh air, grass or sand between your toes, dirt crunching beneath your feet, this is the real world. It seems to me like more and more of us are being consumed by the virtual world, the world of technology, and that's not the world that we should be focussing on. We should be focussing on improving our world, and improving the life and happiness of others. Those are fundamental basics of what our civilization should be doing. The world of robots, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality will reck us as a species, and will lead to our downfall. That is why it is good to separate from the virtual world and engage with the physical world. The physical world matters, the digital world does not. That is what I learned from the lost colony, and it is those lessons that I learn from books which make reading worth it. That is why the lost colony gets a five star rating, is because of these lessons. There's also lots of suspense in this book. The author of the long winter trilogy has crafted a fitting conclusion to the stories of Emma and James, a life worth living for, what a good book and what a good series this has been. I highly recommend this series for everyone.

Narration
I am familiar with both these authors... however in book 3 she has adapted a form of Broadway show-acting that I dislike. This is the only book I have heard this in her voice. It has made me cringe when she starts a chapter. Normally she is awesome though.

Passable SciFi.. but too Cerebral
A.G. Riddle has crafted a quality series of books: The 'Long Winter' Trilogy is a very good exploration of some thought-provoking scenarios. In the first book ('Winter World'), humanity discovers that a climate disaster is being triggered by a hostile Borg-like entity and fights back. In 'Solar War', mankind is essentially wiped out and the remnants engage in a desperate struggle for survival - eventually abandoning the planet. In this third episode, a handful of Earth's survivors tries to establish a colony on a hostile new world 5,000 years' travel from Earth. Each book introduces interesting ideas and explores them nicely.. and each uses enough action to keep the plot moving.
Unfortunately, 'Lost Colony' is relatively weak on both counts: The action is well-paced but poorly-motivated (some of the "threats" on Eos are *ludicrous*) and the scientific conjecture is ethereal/metaphysical to the point of eyes glazing over.
[This culmination of the trilogy reminds me of the last season of the 'Battlestar Galactica' Syndicated TV series in that respect: an engrossing story ("alien" attack forcing the abandonment of a home planet) with a struggle to survive and plenty of action/combat that veers into headscratching theorizing about spirituality, prophecy, and the nature of technology, human history & evolution]
Riddle is guilty of that kind of overreach with his analysis of 'The Grid', alternative timelines, and complicated existential hypotheses. He way overthinks it.
The performances from Edoardo Ballerini and Amanda Leigh Cobb remain above-average but unspectacular (Ballerini's delivery of the voice of "Arthur" is bafflingly inconsistent, for example).. for the most part, however, the reading is great.
Taken altogether, this novel is a middling-quality Science Fiction story but if you are continuing from books I and II in the trilogy, it's worth reading. If you aren't, you could certainly spend the Credit better elsewhere. On the strength of good writing (setting/dialogue/characters) and provocative ideas, this novel rates 5.5 stars out of 10 (the first two are much better).
[Start with 'Winter War' if you're interested in reading this fairly strong SciFi series - but if you do, quitting before this one is defensible]
