Red RisingBook 3 of 7
Morning Star
The unputdownable third book in the Red Rising series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author.
Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Golds demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his people. But Darrow is determined to fight back.
Risking everything to transform himself and breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive cutthroat rivalries, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution.
Finally, the time has come.
But Darrow and his comrades face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy. Among them are some Darrow once considered friends. To win, Darrow will need to inspire those shackled in darkness to break their chains, unmake the world their cruel masters have built, and claim a destiny too long denied - and too glorious to surrender. The heart-pounding and high-octane third book in a spectacular series that combines the drama of Game of Thrones with the epic scope of Star Wars.

Ratings and reviews
I blew through all three of these books. Would probably have read all of them within a week if I didn’t have to adult - I had to take the last one with me on vacation I couldn’t put it down. There is constant action, heart stopping situations, and internal dialogue from Darrow. I can say there has been several points throughout that I my heart wanted to break, or that I wanted to throw my book in frustration (figuratively , because I would never). The last thirty or so pages of this one nearly gave my a heart attack and I was ready to write several people off . Thankfully, though there are parts that will never be made right because it’s war there were redemptions and multiple surprises I was not expecting. I can’t wait to start the next book.
