THE FIRST BOOK IN THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES I am the Reaper and death is my
shadow. 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 . . . Pierce Brown's heart-pounding debut is the first book in a
spectacular series that combines the drama of Game of Thrones with the epic scope of Star Wars.
READERS LOVE RED RISING ' A ridiculously good book with complex world-building riveting
characters and a crazy sci-fi space school. What more could you want in a story? ' ¿¿¿¿¿
'What an intense visceral twisty story. There's a lot more of Lord of the Flies here than
Hunger Games or Ender and it just builds and builds to a heck of a conclusion' ¿¿¿¿¿ ' This
was such a clever beginning to this series! ' ¿¿¿¿¿
