The Lost Colony audiobook – The Long Winter, Book 3

Wrapped up in my reading space, with a gentle rain tapping at my window, I pressed play on The Lost Colony Audiobook. Almost instantly, the combined voices of Edoardo Ballerini and Amanda Leigh Cobb immersed me into the deep lore of a magical world intertwined with our own.

A.G. Riddle brilliantly constructs a narrative that delves deep into the hidden history of Ireland, the fairies, and the reasons behind their subterranean existence. But it’s the revelation about the demons, the eighth fairy family, that truly gripped me. Their thousand-year-old grudge and the looming threat they pose made the stakes higher than ever.

What really stood out to me was the introduction of a new twelve-year-old prodigy, reminiscent of a younger Artemis. Her relentless pursuit to uncover the world of fairies adds another layer of complexity to the story. The parallel between her and Artemis Fowl is intriguing and added a fresh twist to the narrative.

The synergy between Ballerini and Cobb’s narration is unparalleled. They effortlessly weave emotions, tension, and excitement, bringing every character and situation vividly to life.

Riddle’s expertise shines brightly in The Lost Colony, blending history, fantasy, and suspense seamlessly. The intricate plots, rich characterization, and the backdrop of a looming war make it a compelling listen.

For anyone who’s ventured into the world of Artemis Fowl, or even those new to this universe, The Lost Colony promises a roller-coaster ride filled with mystery, action, and age-old secrets. It’s a masterclass in storytelling and a testament to Riddle’s prowess. An experience worth every second! Highly recommended!
