We fought the invading New Men to a standstill in “C” Quadrant and defeated the planet-obliterating Destroyer sent to the Solar System.

The worst should be over, but it’s not.

Now, androids impersonating high-level officials make trust almost impossible. Worse, the New Men appear to have found allies, ones armed with an ancient stealth technology.

This time, however, Earth isn’t going to wait for an attack. Star Watch is sending a Grand Fleet under Admiral Fletcher to “C” Quadrant. He’s supposed to free the captured planets and find the enemy’s homeworld. What he isn’t supposed to do is die.

Captain Maddox isn’t going this time. He’s come under a cloud of suspicion for reasons beyond his control. That isn’t going to stop him, though. He’s found a critical clue. Now, he needs Starship Victory—an ancient, alien spacecraft—the AI Galyan, Dana, Sergeant Riker and the others to help him tear the greatest secret of all from the enemy.

Unless Maddox and his misfit crew succeed, all of humanity’s hard won victories will be drowned in a sea of human extinction.

THE LOST COLONY is the fourth book in the LOST STARSHIP SERIES.

Earth needs a miracle. Out of the Beyond invade the New Men, stronger, faster and smarter than the old. Star Watch sends a massed battle fleet to stop them.

It’s a disaster. Admiral Fletcher barely escapes annihilation by heading at sub-light speed for a nearby star system. His battered ships are running out of food, fuel and missiles. He knows the New Men will use jump gates, waiting for him six months from now at his destination.

Star Watch Command frantically searches for a way to rescue the vessels. Earth has an ancient alien starship in the Oort cloud, with a suspicious AI refusing to cooperate with the scientists. The vessel has powerful weapons—if anyone could figure out how to make them work after ten thousand years.

Star Watch summons Captain Maddox, an unorthodox Intelligence officer who makes things happen. He is given command of Victory and told to fix the ancient weapons, rescue Fletcher’s ships and help them battle home again.

We fought the invading New Men to a standstill and defeated the alien Destroyer sent to obliterate Earth.

The worst should be over, but it’s not.

Perfect android replicas are impersonating high-level officials so trust is failing. Worse, the New Men have found allies with an impenetrable stealth technology.

This time, however, Earth is going on the offensive. Admiral Fletcher is headed to “C” Quadrant with a Grand Fleet. He’s to liberate the captured planets and find the enemy homeworld. What he isn’t supposed to do is die.

The only one who can save humanity has been grounded. Captain Maddox is under suspicion because he’s half New Man. But he’s not going to stop. He’s found something unbelievable. Now, he needs Starship Victory—an ancient, alien spacecraft—the AI Galyan, Meta, Sergeant Riker and the others to help him tear the greatest secret of all from the enemy.

Maddox and his crew must succeed or humanity will drown in a sea of human extinction.
