Praise for Golden Son
Gripping . . . Both author and lead character have cranked up the emotional stakes. . . . With Golden Son, Brown avoids the sophomore slump, charging the novel with the kind of dystopia-toppling action youd expect in a trilogy ender, not a middle volume. On virtually every level, this is a sequel that hates sequelsa perfect fit for a hero who already defies the tropes. [Grade:] AEntertainment Weekly
Stirring . . . Comparisons to The Hunger Games and Game of Thrones series are inevitable, for this tale has elements of both.Kirkus Reviews
Brown writes layered, flawed characters . . . but plot is his most breathtaking strength. . . . Every action seems to flow into the next.NPR
Its a far superior sequel, in fact: one of the rare breed of reads that improves upon its predecessor in every conceivable category. . . . In a word, Golden Son is stunning. Never mind how little weve seen of 2015: Among science fiction fans, it should be a shoo-in for book of the year.Tor.com
Pierce Brown is a prodigy. As great as the first book of the Red Rising Trilogy is, Golden Son is even better. A wild ride full of suspense, intrigue, and serious ass-kicking bravado, its expertly written and emotionally engaging, with top-notch universe-building that begs for further exploration. I want more!Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Snowblind
The stakes are even higher than they were in Red Rising, and the twists and turns of the story are every bit as exciting. The jaw-dropper of an ending will leave readers hungry for the conclusion to Browns wholly original, completely thrilling saga.Booklist (starred review)
Dramatic . . . the rare middle book that loses almost no momentum as it sets up the final installment.Publishers Weekly
