Golden Son by Pierce Brown, Book #2 in Red Rising Series



Like Red Rising, Golden Son is an epic Science Fiction Novel. Darrow has grown in this book, but again he still has much to learn. I like the effort the author makes in this book to fill in additional details about lesser characters. I also enjoyed the banter between Darrow and his "crew". Stakes are rising and the dynamics are playing out. The complexity of the plot really begins to shine in this second installment as we see Darrow meeting with more intellectual and physical conflicts than ever before. As with many sequels this book moved a bit slower than the first, but was in no way a disappointment. Again the audio-book was awesomely rendered. Same reader as the initial novel, so if you liked the first book in audio, go ahead and spring for this one too.

I give Golden Son 4 out of 5 Stars

I give the Audio 5 out of 5 stars
