Publisher's Summary

With shades of The Hunger Games, Ender's Game, and Game of Thrones, debut author Pierce Brown's genre-defying epic Red Rising hit the ground running and wasted no time becoming a sensation. Golden Son continues the stunning saga of Darrow, a rebel forged by tragedy, battling to lead his oppressed people to freedom from the overlords of a brutal elitist future built on lies. Now fully embedded among the Gold ruling class, Darrow continues his work to bring down Society from within.

A life-or-death tale of vengeance with an unforgettable hero at its heart, Golden Son guarantees Pierce Brown's continuing status as one of fiction's most exciting new voices.

Worth the ride

Gripping, faster paced than the first book since all the pieces are in place. The climax and twists are phenomenal.

Bloodydamn good

The narrator took an already amazing story to the next level. The second books in trilogy’s usually leave me disappointed as they largely serve as a filler, this novel however was fast paced and actioned action packed with a devastating ending. It’s got the elements needed for my to desperately reach for the next book as if my life depends on it.

A strong sequel

Although not as gripping as the first book, this one is good enough to keep you interested. and the narration as usual, is spot on. Definitely worth a listen.

A proper follow up of Book 1

Interesting stories with a lot of plot twists. Very ‘Hunger games’ kind of feeling but still very interesting to read and follow up.

Memorable.

The author has refined and learnt so much from his previous book that the characters, twists, ending and overall journey itself is so memorable that it left me wanting for more.
The narrator has become one of my favourites, narrating with such clarity.
On to the next book :)

Compelling Read!

This second read in Red Rising series is an improvement on Red Rising in every single facet, which I feel is quite a feat considering how much I enjoyed the first book. Pierce Brown has managed to take all the cool things one loves about action packed sci-fi, and combined them with fantastic characters and a compelling story that seems to get deeper each time I look back on it. It is magnificently written and narrated .

Just go read this book if you haven't already.
