About this listen

This special audiobook edition features behind-the-scenes commentary by author Steve Berry after some chapters.

The Knights of the Golden Circle was the largest and most dangerous clandestine organization in American history. It amassed billions in stolen gold and silver, all buried in hidden caches across the United States. Since 1865 treasure hunters have searched, but little of that immense wealth has ever been found.

Now, one hundred and sixty years later, two factions of what remains of the Knights of the Golden Circle want that lost treasure - one to spend it for their own ends, the other to preserve it.

Thrust into this battle is former Justice Department agent Cotton Malone, whose connection to the knights is far deeper than he ever imagined. At the center is the Smithsonian Institution - linked to the knights, its treasure, and Malone himself through an ancestor, a Confederate spy named Angus "Cotton" Adams, whose story holds the key to everything. Complicating matters are the political ambitions of a reckless Speaker of the House and the bitter widow of a United States Senator, who together are planning radical changes to the country. And while Malone and Cassiopeia Vitt face the past, ex-president Danny Daniels and Stephanie Nelle confront a new and unexpected challenge, a threat that may cost one of them their life.

From the backrooms of the Smithsonian to the deepest woods in rural Arkansas, and finally up into the rugged mountains of northern New Mexico, The Lost Order is a perilous adventure into the dark past of the United States, and a potentially even darker future.

Another page turner with brilliant narration by steve brick - he is Cotton Malone. I’m making my way through all of steve berry’s Cotton Malone series each one better than the last…. And I learn so much historical fact in the process…. Love these books.

Another very enjoyable Cotton Malone adventure. This time he's on the hunt for lost Confederate gold, but unsurprisingly so are a few others...
Great to see Danny Daniels get more of a starring role in this story - he really is a great character.
The Lost Order can be enjoyed as a standalone novel, however you would benefit from having knowledge of the various character relationships which have grown in the earlier books of the Malone series.
Another flawless performance from Scott Brick. I'm already looking forward to the next Malone instalment!

This is highly recommended - a thoroughly great enjoyable dash across the US, with plenty of action and intrigue.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Not really, irritating that after each chapter the author comes in with comments, sorry Mr Berry but hate it!! annoying and distrating and take away from the enjoyment of the book so much so I am going to return it. Had I known I would not have picked this book, we were unfortunately not allowed to download the previous book as apperently we would have known. I love the Cotton Malone books we have all of them, but will not be taken them without hesitation any more.

I two starred the narrating this is not due to Scott Brick (Hegets 5 from me) but the authors stuff inbetween.

The story is not great either, but I am thinking if this is because of the narrating in between or it is not good.

Make up your own mind on this but for me nah not a listen I recommend.

What will your next listen be?

Maxwell and King by David Baldacci

Would you be willing to try another one of Scott Brick’s performances?

Yes love Scott Brick he would get 5 stars from me

Could you see The Lost Order being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

nope

Any additional comments?

enough said, sorry but very dissapointing.

Weak story and hate the narroting by the author
