About this ebook
Ender's Game meets The Hunger Games in MORNING STAR , the second in an extraordinary series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising.
**********
'I'm still playing games. This is just the deadliest yet.'
Darrow is a rebel forged by tragedy. For years he and his fellow Reds worked the mines, toiling to make the surface of Mars inhabitable. They were, they believed, mankind's last hope. Until Darrow discovered that it was all a lie, and that the Red were nothing more than unwitting slaves to an elitist ruling class, the Golds, who had been living on Mars in luxury for generations.
In RED RISING, Darrow infiltrated Gold society, to fight in secret for a better future for his people. Now fully embedded amongst the Gold ruling class, Darrow continues his dangerous work to bring them down from within. It's a journey that will take him further than he's ever been before - but is Darrow truly willing to pay the price that rebellion demands?
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.

Sequels are so tricky, especially following a fantastic opener like Red Rising, but Golden Son exceeds expectations brilliantly! Can't believe I have to wait another year for the final book - it's going to kill me!

Amazing 2nd part of a wonderful trilogy. The first person style
relentlessly adhered to makes one feel every dark & bitter sweet moment our
protagonist Darrow faces. On to the 3rd novel - it's only been 2 weeks
since I started the 1st!

I absolutely love this series. It is so well written and I'm usually skimming through boring parts of books to get to the interesting stuff but not at all with this one!
