Red Rising hit the ground running and wasted no time becoming a sensation. Golden Son continues the stunning saga of Darrow, a rebel forged by tragedy, battling to lead his oppressed people to freedom.
Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!
As a Red, Darrow grew up working the mines deep beneath the surface of Mars, enduring backbreaking labor while dreaming of the better future he was building for his descendants. But the Society he faithfully served was built on lies. Darrow’s kind have been betrayed and denied by their elitist masters, the Golds—and their only path to liberation is revolution. And so Darrow sacrifices himself in the name of the greater good for which Eo, his true love and inspiration, laid down her own life. He becomes a Gold, infiltrating their privileged realm so that he can destroy it from within.
A lamb among wolves in a cruel world, Darrow finds friendship, respect, and even love—but also the wrath of powerful rivals. To wage and win the war that will change humankind’s destiny, Darrow must confront the treachery arrayed against him, overcome his all-too-human desire for retribution—and strive not for violent revolt but a hopeful rebirth. Though the road ahead is fraught with danger and deceit, Darrow must choose to follow Eo’s principles of love and justice to free his people.
He must live for more.

The Graphic Audio is nice and helps build the atmosphere but a good narrator and cast does too. Unfortunately some of the casting chooses like Cassius, Sevro and Fintcher are way off. There are at times locations, objects or character names that aren’t consistently said the same way or gets changed. Sticking to the original Audible books will probably be every listeners best choice. Listening to the Graphic Audio is nice but not required especially considering they aren’t all completed yet. Many sentences to full paragraphs are skipped over entirely which gets confusing.
On the mixing side of things. I think Audible should allow increasing the mix (volumes) on character voices whether Graphic Audio or not because especially in this one with many characters talking at once, background talking, noise etc it’s extremely difficult to keep up with or be bothered with. Similar to the Dune Graphic Audio. You would have the sand and wind sounds way over power the narration. If Harry Potter can get ATMOS recording (few have the ability to play it to the fullest potential.) Having a higher quality should be the goal with Graphic Audio. Thus improving the narration levels being low or other parts being too high.
Both Audible versions are about 1 GB. Graphic Audio in multiple parts should have utilized this, increased it and allowed for far better quality. I’m curious because Graphic Audio offers a FLAC version on their website and I wonder the difference and why Audible isn’t including that to the customers that have requested higher quality downloads. As this quality is not up to value.
