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.

What a let down compared to the first book. Pretty awful in most places . I can't recommend it at all.

Fantastic book. Brilliantly read.
I didn’t think I’d be satisfied with a new series coming off the back of Gentleman Bastards and First Law but boy was I surprised.

So much better than the last one!
Right, I feel very strongly about these books. Full disclosure, I have now read all three in the trilogy and am having a small break before I start the next trilogy for Darrow.
This has been the best series I have read in a while.
This book is so much better than the last one, and the last one was absolutely awesome already. Red Rising was an amazing entry into this universe of different types of humans, and different planets, with strange weapons and armour that you just love to know about. But Golden Son is another thing entirely.
Strengths and weaknesses.
Well, strengths. Thats everything. The characters are great, and we see old loyalties tested and brought back in. The plot, oh my god, the plot of this was perfection. Every twist and turn felt real, every bit of it made sense, all of it earned. It was pacy, it was gritty, it was dark, so dark. Much darker than the last in many ways. I couldn't put it down, I couldn't stop reading. I loved every second of this.
Darrow has grown into an incredible character, and the world expands massively. So much happens in this book, which is a refreshing change from quite a few series that I've read recently that just felt like not a lot occurred. Again Pierce Brown hits a home run. Issues with prose and pacing are gone from this one. Prose are very stylistic, but I love the style and at the end of the day, I LOVE DARROW, and I love all of the people he has around him.
Another incredibly high recommendation from me for these ones. I can not sing the praises of this book and series strongly enough. And, oh my word, what an ending! Broken, utterly broken.

Darrow enters the real War
What a cliff hanger, bait taken. A splendid sequel, expanding Darrow's universe, and bringing all the drama and turns you'd expect.
