Feral Colony is the second novel in the Peregrine Outpost series. Feral Colony is a post-apocalyptic, space-colonization adventure, filled with danger, narrow escapes, memorable characters, witty robots, and turbo-paced thrills. Perfect for fans of Lost In Space, Interstellar, and Raised by Wolves.
Ember, Seven, and their companions survived the apocalypse, but that was easy compared to the challenge they face now. These six improbable heroes must find a habitable world for twelve thousand people being held in stasis—the last remaining humans on Earth.
The clock is ticking. Ember and the others are dying from contamination, and their only hope for a cure is to get the job done. With several terraformed worlds to choose from, the first was a bust. Sure, that planet was pleasant enough, until a solar eclipse occurred and billions of flesh-eating bugs emerged from hiding.
With no time to rest, the team jumps to the second world, Coratune. Terraformed centuries ago and seeded with humans and other Earth life forms, Coratune seems promising. But the humans here haven’t progressed as planned—they’ve gone feral. Forced by a dysfunctional robot into a harrowing journey across a hostile landscape, Ember and her companions find a glimmer of hope… but can hope endure in the midst of appalling savagery?

Here are a few of my favorite reviews of Feral Colony:
"Survivors, spaceships, robots, AI and all things needed for a first class world building. A very fun and action filled story from Stan C. Smith that didn't let me put it down. Interesting characters in wild landscapes make for unexpected turns and surprises."
- Miguel on Amazon
"I love Stan C. Smith’s writing! The perspective he brings to his science fiction material resonates on so many levels, and his Feral Colony story is no exception. This second book in the Peregrine Outpost series delivers a gripping storyline. The characters are a perfect blend of vulnerability and moxie. Bound by mutual trust and brilliant alliances, the team plunges headlong into a dangerous new world on planet Coratune. Smith does not disappoint, weaving in a bit of humor and romance with a multifaceted tale that creates a down-to-the-wire adrenaline rush. Jump on board and enjoy the incredible ride."

"I was pleasantly surprised. It has complexity, great action and a combination of pleasant and not so pleasant characters. I read this in two settings. It gave me much pause for thought. And it was fun."
