Book Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The bestselling author of Morning Star returns to the Red Rising universe with the thrilling sequel to Iron Gold.
 
“Brown’s plots are like a depth charge of nitromethane dropped in a bucket of gasoline. His pacing is 100% him standing over it all with a lit match and a smile, waiting for us to dare him to drop it.”—NPR (Best Books of the Year)

He broke the chains. Then he broke the world….
 
A decade ago Darrow led a revolution, and laid the foundations for a new world. Now he’s an outlaw.
 
Cast out of the very Republic he founded, with half his fleet destroyed, he wages a rogue war on Mercury. Outnumbered and outgunned, is he still the hero who broke the chains? Or will he become the very evil he fought to destroy?
 
In his darkening shadow, a new hero rises. 
 
Lysander au Lune, the displaced heir to the old empire, has returned to bridge the divide between the Golds of the Rim and Core. If united, their combined might may prove fatal to the fledgling Republic. 
 
On Luna, the embattled Sovereign of the Republic, Virginia au Augustus, fights to preserve her precious demokracy and her exiled husband. But one may cost her the other, and her son is not yet returned.
 
Abducted by enemy agents, Pax au Augustus must trust in a Gray thief, Ephraim, for his salvation. 
 
Far across the void, Lyria, a Red refugee accused of treason, makes a desperate bid for freedom with the help of two unlikely new allies.
 
Fear dims the hopes of the Rising, and as power is seized, lost, and reclaimed, the worlds spin on and on toward a new Dark Age.

  • All I can say is. Wow

    An absolute gem of an entry in the series. Riveting from cover to cover. It’s hard to tell where this book starts and iron gold ends. I almost feel like they could have been one massive story. The way they flow together is masterful. Up until this book Golden Son was my favorite in the series. This one takes the cake and all the other desserts with it. The battles are nail biting. And the revelations in this book and the history that comes back keeps you turning pages. The way he takes characters that I had a hard time caring about in iron gold to Ephraim being my second favorite character in the entire series is beyond what I thought the sequel trilogy had in store for me. 2 thumbs way up. 5 stars. Whatever you want to call it. Don’t miss out on this fantastic novel
  • GoT, Dune, Hunger Games, Eragon, LotR all made a baby

    This book is everything you could ask for from a future among the stars love story of “GoT” meets “Dune” level proportions. The only word on your mind throughout this entire series is what’s next!
  • Darrow & Pierce Do it Again

    Possibly better than Morning Star; made me weep, made me laugh, and most of all made me thirst for more of this world. Cannot wait for Light Bringer. If you love sci fi, Howlers, Darrow, and to see all your heroes be truly tested this is the booo for you. I can’t stress enough just how much one takes the franchise to the next level.
  • Best so far

    So far the best book in the series. If you thought Golden Son was great you need to read this one. Pierce improves his updated narrative of using multiple POV characters. Looking forward to see how Lightbringer adds to the Red Rising sequel series!

    Honestly, it’s ok and at times good but for the most part it is not worth your time. It’s almost like it was written by someone else.
