Publisher's summary

The Deliverance has arrived.

The planet is beautiful, lush, teeming with life and perfectly suited to the colony’s needs. It should be a paradise.

Instead, it’s a nightmare.

Caleb knows the truth. The ship’s real mission has nothing to do with settlement. The plan is much more sinister than that.

Now the race is on to prepare for the coming storm, to secure the colony, and find the enemy before the enemy finds them.

But when fear leads to a desperate betrayal, will it be the innocent who pay the ultimate price?

Desperation - Great 3rd book of Forgotten Colony Series

just like the first two books, this one is also non-stop combat action but there is now much more lying and treachery among the humans who should be united against the common foe. The city folk of the ship have turned against the guardians. Very good read. Definitely recommend.

High thrills and chills in a fun series

This third book in the Delivery series is the proverbial rollercoaster ride of action and danger we've come to love Forbes' writing. It will not disappoint!!!

desperation is a very good title

I felt like this book definitely captured the weariness of the main characters how they had to go from situation to situation desperate to just move on and be at peace.

Best series!!

This book series and the other series in the same universe are easily my favorite audio books I’ve listened to. Well written and great character development. I’m hooked every time. I sometimes want to be there with Caleb or Sheriff Haden Duke fighting the trife and saving humanity. Also discovering the reasons behind it all. I love it!!!
