Summary

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.

Brutal Gripping Carnage

My favourite series by a mile. I love the Red Rising series, expertly crafted edge of the seat action. Read all the books, so was pleasantly surprised when the dramatised audio books were released. Can’t wait til the next one. Hail Reaper

Absolutely Fantastic

Been a fan of RR series since I stumbled on it during a book search and have the copies on kindle and Audiobook. Initially I was sceptical about a version that had a full cast with sound effects etc. couldn’t have been more wrong. If anything these have elevated the audio experience far beyond what I enjoyed.
Special mention to Jenna who plays Mustang as she sounds exactly as I had her pictured in my head. After the normal Audiobooks this is a step above and hopefully before long someone will see the potential for a movie(s) or TV series.
Hail Reaper!
