About this listen

Darrow returns as Pierce Brown’s New York Times bestselling Red Rising series continues in the thrilling sequel to Dark Age.

“The measure of a man is not the fear he sows in his enemies. It is the hope he gives his friends.”—Virginia au Augustus

The Reaper is a legend, more myth than man: the savior of worlds, the leader of the Rising, the breaker of chains.

But the Reaper is also Darrow, born of the red soil of Mars: a husband, a father, a friend.

The worlds once needed the Reaper. But now they need Darrow. Because after the dark age will come a new age: of light, of victory, of hope.

Completely Epic

Pierce Brown this is for you. Don’t have an end to this series. I will buy every hard copy and audio book you ever make in this series. I’ve read and listened to the greatest writers and story tellers of our time. The red rising series is LEVELS above anything ever produced. Exciting, emotional, heroic, action packed and riveting. Thank you for allowing me to live this world though your words.

The audio performance is incredible. Hats off to a masterpiece.

Great book

Story is great but I found the narrator hard to pay attention to. Had to rewind often and listen again.

Another great book

I really love following the exploits of Darrow and was thrilled by this book. Expertly written and narrated. I would recommend starting the series at the start and working your way through to this point chronologically as the character development is unrivalled and the story often twists in ways that you just don't see coming.

Does not disappoint!

This series continues and does not grow old or tired. Would love to see the story line adapt to the next generation as main characters.

fantastic

Peirce, your writing has evolved so incredibly over the years. You've absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one. Side note you've broken my heart, and I won't forgive you.

Love the book, miss the voices.

Book is amazing, Tim sounds great but a bit off. I don’t think it was fair to us to have him do all 4 characters, specially after suck great casting was done for iron gold dark age

Great book!!!

Loved this book TGR did another great job. at some parts I did miss the other readers that joined in the two books. I have listened and read every book more than twice. just finished listening to this book absolutely has everything. just wish you found out what happend to Rhonna after Darrow left, hopefully in the next book. I feel sorry for Cassius who finally joined the fight. can't wait for the last book.

Another Amazing Entry in the Red Rising Saga

Narrator does a great job embodying the voices of the characters, but the previous book had different narrators for different characters which I liked. The story is awesome, if you’ve been reading Red Rising since the beginning you know what to expect from Pierce Brown and he does not disappoint in Light Bringer.
