Publisher Description
The Reaper has come. And he's brought hell with him.
The unputdownable third book in the explosive global sensation from Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author Pierce Brown.
Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Golds demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his people. But Darrow is determined to fight back.
Risking everything to breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive cutthroat rivalries, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution.
Now the time has come.
But Darrow and his comrades face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy, including some Darrow once considered friends. To win, Darrow will need to inspire those shackled in darkness to break their chains, unmake the world their cruel masters have built, and claim a destiny too long denied - and too glorious to surrender.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
in the excellent closing book of Brown's Red Rising trilogy, revolutionary Darrow is given a second chance to overthrow the government of a class-based future society obsessed with Ancient Rome and segregated by color-coded functions. Red-born Darrow's attempt to incite revolution while hiding among the godlike Golds, rulers of the Solar System, has failed, but it inspired an open revolt. Darrow struggles to figure out whom to trust; uniting an interplanetary uprising requires unstable and unpalatable alliances. His decisions often make him barely better than the oppressors he seeks to overthrow, blowing apart the all-too-overused trope of a plucky good-hearted band overcoming a corrupt oligarchy. Brown's vivid, first-person prose puts the reader right at the forefront of impassioned speeches, broken families, and engaging battle scenes that don't shy away from the gore as this intrastellar civil war comes to a most satisfying conclusion.
