Darrow is a Helldiver, one of a thousand men and women who live in the vast caves beneath the surface of Mars, generations of people who spend their lives toiling to mine the precious elements that will allow the planet to be terraformed. Just knowing that, one day, people will be able to walk the surface of the planet is enough to justify their sacrifice. The Earth is dying, and Darrow and his people are the only hope humanity has left. Until the day Darrow learns that it is all a lie. That Mars has been habitable - and inhabited - for generations, by a class of people calling themselves the Golds. A class of people who look down at Darrow and his fellows as slave labour, to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought. Until the day Darrow, with the help of a mysterious group of rebels, disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their society. Review: *respect* Sevro was bloodydamn awesome till the very end - A saga has ended. I am speechless. (No reference to The Jackal intended.) Pierce Brown spun a world under his fingers. A world so vast yet brimming with detail. He created so many characters each with its own set of flaws and strengths and put them in impossible and heartbreaking situations and watched them climb right back up, beg for mercy, fall on their swords or embrace death with pride all the while snickering in his room above his parent's garage. *respect* Sevro was bloodydamn awesome till the very end. So was my goodman, Ragnar. Darrow was not the center of the universe of this novel. The Reaper had grown enough in the last two novels but the Reaper cannot goryhell do anything without the people around him. The people he loves: Mustang, Sevro, Ragnar, Victra and even Cassius and Roque. If nothing else the betrayal stings Darrow as of a friend under hypnosis and he wants to snap them awake so they can see the world as he sees it, as Eo saw it, and strive to make it a reality. I have to admit I predicted the plot-twist, it made a lot of sense. But that didn't make it any less fun to read. If anything it made me jump and scream, "I KNEW IT! I BLOODYDAMN KNEW IT". There is no series in the world that is capable of matching this one. It juggles around, teases a little and then satisfyingly hits goryhell home. Pardon my tongue, my goodman, its effect may last a while. The book was delivered before time and the quality and packing was decent. Review: As Great - Great ending to the Trilogy. Still The second book is the Best. Although this book's ending leaves you satisfied . Good work

Best YA book with amazing ending
I picked up this series because book 3 here was on Good reads best SciFi book of 2016. Every review of the book compared it to the hunger games which I loathe so much. There cannot be a worse book than that. Red rising series on the other hand is well written and meaningful. Morning star gives a satisfying end to the series without any cliched deaths or over the top protagonist. The character development is marvellous and the way they handle destroying the color hierarchy seems realistic. The author did a fantastic job with all the characters.

Awesomeness Redefined
This book is one of the best books I have ever read. It has all the elements to make it one of the best books of all time. Red rising trilogy can easily be considered to be in the league of great trilogies like LOTR. I just can't wait to see it translated into a movie.

Packender Abschluss der Red-Rising-Trilogie
Inhalt Darrow hätte in Frieden gelebt, doch seine Feinde brachten ihm den Krieg. Als Roter war Darrow dazu bestimmt, sein Leben in den Minen von Mars zu verbringen. Doch die Hinrichtung seiner große Liebe führte dazu, das Darrow als Goldener wiedergeboren wurde. Erfolgreich infiltrierte er die goldene Gesellschaft und gewann schließlich die Schlacht um Mars. Doch der Moment, der Darrows größter Triumph sein sollte, wurde zu seiner schrecklichsten Niederlage: Verraten von ehemaligen Freunden, befindet er sich in der Gefangenschaft seines grausamsten Feindes. Doch trotz des vernichtenden Schlages, der Darrow und den Söhnen von Ares zugefügt wurde, lebt die Revolution noch immer. Als Darrow endlich frei ist, findet er die Revolution im Zerfall vor, während seine mächtigen Feinde gnadenlos und ohne Skrupel handeln. Um zu gewinnen muss Darrow einmal mehr die im Dunkeln Gefesselten dazu bringen, ihre Ketten zu sprengen und die Welt umzustürzen, die ihre grausamen Meister geschaffen haben. Kann Darrow die Revolution hinter sich vereinen und zum Sieg führen? Meinung Was ich schon an den vorherigen Bänden mochte, wird hier nun ganz deutlich: Es gibt keine strahlenden Helden, an ihrer aller Händen klebt das Blut. Zudem ist der Grat zwischen Revolution und Terrorismus ein nur zu schmaler. Darrow beweist sich im dritten Band als Realpolitiker und schreckt nicht davor zurück, seine eigenen Leute zu opfern oder „false flag“-Operationen durchzuführen. Es gibt Führungskrisen und Meutreien, die ungewöhnliche Lösungen erforderlich machen. Und natürlich immer wieder wunderbar ausgebuffte Pläne, die für einen Plottwist nach den nächsten sorgen. Im Vergleich zu den vorherigen Bänden werden hier verhältnismäßig wenig neue Charaktere eingeführt, dennoch hat Pierce Brown auch dieses Mal einige faszinierende Figuren geschaffen. Während Darrow in den ersten beiden Bänden die Verbündeten scheinbar nur zu zuströmten, muss er zudem in diesem abschließenden Teil hart dafür arbeiten, Neue für sich zu gewinnen und Alte an seiner Seite zu halten. Denn je größer die Revolution wird, desto fragiler wird das Gleichgewicht zwischen den Lagern. Insgesamt gibt es auch im finalen Band wieder all die geschätzten Zutaten, die schon die beiden Vorgänger so groß machten, genannt seien halsbrecherische Aktionen, wagemutige Diplomatie und epische Weltraumschlachten. Was ich besonders an der Trilogie liebe, ist der Realismus: Statt eines einsamen Helden ist die Zusammenarbeit vieler nötig, um das Imperium zu stürzen – und mehr als einmal scheint Darrow alles um die Ohren zu fliegen, bevor es zur finalen Schlacht kommt. Auch der Schluss gefiel mir gut: Es herrscht nicht eitel Sonnenschein, sondern es ist allen bewusst, dass dies nur ein Etappensieg war. Ich verbeuge mich an dieser Stelle vor Pierce Brown, denn mit dieser Trilogie hat er aus meiner Sicht ein Meisterwerk geschaffen. Ein Meisterwerk, dass Krieg in all seiner Grausamkeit zeigt und was der Kampf für eine gerechte Sache kostet. Diese Trilogie ist am Puls der Zeit. In einem Satz Der epische Abschluss einer fantastischen Trilogie, die selbst auf den letzten Metern noch immer wieder Plottwists vollführt. 5 Sterne

Better then Book 1
This series was recommended by a friend. Book one was great but I felt the story drag a bit. Not a problem with book 2! The pace of progression keeps you on your toes and easily gets you lost within the pages of the book. Great character development and an exciting ending that leaves you yearning to know what will happen next! This is a great page-turning series, and one that will easily leaves you saying "just one more chapter"

Un final de saga a la altura de las expectativas
Un final de trilogía absolutamente explosivo que no decepciona. Pierce Brown cierra la saga Red Rising con una historia llena de acción, emociones y giros inesperados que mantienen enganchado hasta la última página. Lectura obligatoria para los fans de la ciencia ficción distopíca.
