About this listen

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.

Another Banger

The second of the series, Golden Son is equally as good, if not better than the first. No longer confined to the institute, this book is much larger in scope, and the action all the bigger for it. The narration is again, top notch, with clearly defined voices for each character, and excellent dramatic flair for emotional or terse moments. Highly recommended.

Intense!

The second book in the series continues with masterful development of characters. The ending is a classic format to reach for the next book in the series.

SO good

Absolutely gripping. My only complaint, is I’ve completely neglected the rest of my commitments in real life; sitting and listening, my heart racing late into the night.
