Red Rising. Book 1 - Pierce Brown - 9781444758993

Pierce Brown’s heart-pounding and high-octane debut is the first book in a spectacular series that combines the drama of Game of Thrones with the epic scope of Star Wars.

Darrow is a Helldiver. A pioneer of Mars.

Born to slave beneath the earth so that one day, future generations might live above it.

He is a Red – humankind’s lowest caste. But he has something the Golds – the ruthless ruling class – will never understand.

He has a wife he worships, a family who give him strength. He has love.

And when they take that from him, all that remains is revenge . . .
