About this listen
For a decade, Darrow led a revolution against the corrupt color-coded Society. Now, outlawed by the very Republic he founded, he wages a rogue war on Mercury in hopes that he can still salvage the dream of Eo. But as he leaves death and destruction in his wake, is he still the hero who broke the chains? Or will another legend rise to take his place?
Lysander au Lune, the heir in exile, has returned to the Core. Determined to bring peace back to mankind at the edge of his sword, he must overcome or unite the treacherous Gold families of the Core and face down Darrow over the skies of war-torn Mercury.
But theirs are not the only fates hanging in the balance.
On Luna, Mustang, Sovereign of the Republic, campaigns to unite the Republic behind her husband. Beset by political and criminal enemies, can she outwit her opponents in time to save him?
Once a Red refugee, young Lyria now stands accused of treason, and her only hope is a desperate escape with unlikely new allies.
Abducted by a new threat to the Republic, Pax and Electra, the children of Darrow and Sevro, must trust in Ephraim, a thief, for their salvation - and Ephraim must look to them for his chance at redemption.
As alliances shift, break, and re-form - and power is seized, lost, and reclaimed - every player is at risk in a game of conquest that could turn the Rising into a new Dark Age.

Darrow is a Red, a member of the lowest caste in the color-coded society of the future. Like his fellow Reds, he works all day, believing that he and his people are making the surface of Mars livable for future generations. Yet he toils willingly, trusting that his blood and sweat will one day result in a better world for his children. But Darrow and his kind have been betrayed. Soon he discovers that humanity reached the surface generations ago. Vast cities and lush wilds spread across the planet. Darrow—and Reds like him—are nothing more than slaves to a decadent ruling class.

It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

The storyline, character development and plot twists along the way, this story kept me at the edge of my seat throughout! I just relistened to the entire series in preparation for Lightbringer!!!
Even better a second time!

A story within stories
the changing of narration and the tie in of characters was difficult at first but it's culmination into a complete story was unbelievable.

Can't get enough
Story expands and continues to unfold were events cascade upon one another to threaten the overall peace, freedom, and well being of all citizens of the Solar Republic, the Gold Society, and the Rim.
Wishing the next book will be published soon!

My favorite yet
I have loved these books since they came out, this has been one of my favorites for sure. So compelling. Can’t wait for the next two! I will say though, the guy that played lysander in the last book was much better than this guy. This actor sounds a tad older than Lysander (who would be young). Other than that small bit it’s all awesome

Interesting, engaging and unique
This story was well performed well written, and a whole lot of fun. The characters are so well developed, but it really hits you when they meet their end.

Much improved from book 4
This one definitely had a slow start but when it picked up I couldn’t stop listening. Sad some big characters died.
The audio version improved with its choice of narrators this time compared to the previous one. However the mispronunciation of Cassius truly bothered me from start to finish. Even Tim who has narrated Cassius’ name the same way the first 4 books changed how he pronounced it during this one which I just found super annoying and had a hard time connecting it with the character I know and love. Otherwise it was great!

Incredible book, incredible series
The red rising series by Pierce brown is an immaculate sci fi fantasy series that pays homage to the greats, while at the same being a phenomenal series all on its own. Pierce brown is a wonderful writer and I can’t wait for book 6
