“A zany cast of slaves, ex-slaves, capitalists, opportunists, inventors, and just plain regular folk lead the way through this colorful and delightful tale. . . .” –VOYA
 
In The Red Menace, the much-awaited second installment of The Lost Colony series, the beloved and not-so-beloved islanders confront war profiteering, the Indian Wars, and other unwelcome visitors to their hidden realm.
 
Grady Klein cooks up a fresh serving of shocks and delights in this one-of-a-kind take on American history.  Along with magic potions, stage tricks, and farting contests, be prepared for tragedy, controversy, and even shameful secrets.  And of course, plenty of reasonably priced merchandise. 
 
It’s wintertime on the island, and The Lost Colony explodes with intrigue in a chilly palette of pastel shades, splashed with the patriotic red, white, and blue.  In this continuing feast for your eyes and mind, human nature plays out in all its grim hypocrisy and hilarious contradiction—and just like most things on the island, the Red Menace itself isn’t what it seems.
