I recently started reading *The Devil's Colony* but unfortunately, I couldn't finish it. I got about 20% into the book, and I found the storyline difficult to follow, especially with the multiple points of view. This could very well be a personal preference, as I tend to struggle with books that shift perspectives frequently.

That said, I can recognize that the writing itself is beautifully articulated. The prose is rich and vivid, which suggests that the book has a lot to offer. The intricate world-building and character development might appeal to readers who enjoy complex narratives. However, for me, the difficulty in keeping track of the different POVs ultimately made it hard to stay engaged.

I believe *The Devil's Colony* is probably a good book, but sadly, I just wasn't able to connect with it. It might be more suited to readers who enjoy layered storytelling and can navigate the shifts in perspective with ease.

I appreciate NetGalley offering me this book as an ARC.

An original and compelling new take on The Lost Colony with just the right amount of gore and suspense to make this book impossible to put down. Growing up in OBX, I've read or heard just about every theory on the mystery of Roanoke and this one was an instant favorite. Lestrange has managed to write for buffs and newbies alike! I loved everything about this ARC, wouldn't change a thing (I do not agree with Footnote 11)!

I honestly haven't read a book before based on/within Roanoke. The book seemed like it had an interesting premise. The Devil's Colony is well written, and an engaging story. It is definitely a page turner, and I would recommend this book to anyone who has even a passing interest in Colonial America, or Roanoke.

Unable to give proper feedback as it was vert difficult to read due to errors in the text.
I hope the published copy will have the errors corrected.
