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

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A duel between two legendary warriors may decide the fate of worlds in this harrowing science fiction adventure. Darrow, who has risen from a lowly Martian miner to become a revolutionary leader known as The Reaper, knows it’s time to leave the war he started in the hands of others. Yet, when a mission to rescue a friend turns out to be a trap set by an old enemy, Darrow finds himself once again fighting for his life. Author Pierce Brown infuses this instalment in the Red Rising series with elements of Greek and Roman mythology, creating a vivid world that we found both immersive and unique. We loved hearing Darrow, much like Homer’s Odysseus, come to realize that every adventure comes with the potential for both victory and tragedy. Narrator Tim Gerard Reynolds’ pacing is perfect, especially as the plot ramps up—and he has a firm grasp on the characters, letting us feel Darrow’s pain as his past choices come back to haunt him. Light Bringer is a sci-fi odyssey you’ll want to embark on.
