Земля умирает, и только колонизация ближнего космоса дает человечеству шанс на спасение. Пять веков назад в опасные марсианские недра спустились люди, чтобы добыть драгоценный гелий-3, необходимый для терраформирования планеты. Эта каста, называющая себя алой, верит, что ее подвиг не пропадет зря и потомки будут жить наверху, как в раю. Однажды Дэрроу узнает, что все это неправда. Поверхность Марса давно благоустроена, на ней уже сменилось несколько поколений золотой касты. Этот факт тщательно скрывается от алых, которых золотые считают безмозглыми рабочими муравьями, обреченными рождаться и умирать на подземной каторге, чтобы обеспечивать…

Продолжение мирового бестселлера-антиутопии «Алое восстание». Подобно горным гномам из легенд, в недрах веками трудится народ, называющий себя кастой алых. Ценой невероятных лишений он добывает гелий-3, надеясь накопить его достаточно, чтобы однажды покинуть марсианские норы, окружить планету оболочкой из воздуха и воды, создать на поверхности условия для человеческого существования. И вдруг выясняется, что Марс уже терраформирован, это сделала каста золотых тайком от добытчиков гелия, причем себя золотые считают господами, алым же отвели роль рабов. Чтобы вызволить угнетенный народ и добиться справедливости, организация Сынов Ареса…

В Солнечной системе идет яростная борьба между высшими и низшими кастами Сообщества, разделенного на цвета. Дэрроу из Ликоса, предводитель алых повстанцев Марса, схвачен и после страшных пыток брошен в темницу, из которой выход один: бесславная смерть. Золотые правители, используя новейшие технологии, имитировали его казнь и транслировали ее по всем каналам Вселенной. Посланцы Сынов Ареса, врагов верховной правительницы из касты золотых, освобождают узника, необходимого своему народу. Но дух Дэрроу уже сломлен. Близкие успели оплакать его, соратники утратили веру в победу, и кажется, нет ни единого шанса поднять новую волну восстания...

Десять лет назад планеты Солнечной системы были ввергнуты в хаос войны между высшими и низшими кастами Сообщества, разделенного на цвета. Но раскол в Сообществе гораздо глубже кастовых противоречий. Дэрроу, бывший шахтер-проходчик, а ныне лорд-император республики, сталкивается с предательством в тот момент, когда его чествуют как победителя. Сенат выдвигает ему серьезное обвинение, сильные союзники отступаются от него. Увенчанного лаврами полководца ждет арест, а возможно, и нечто худшее. Неужели его предал кто-то из близких соратников или друзей? Кто пытается манипулировать им? Дэрроу слишком дорога его свобода, и он решается…

He broke the chains. Then he broke the world…. A decade ago Darrow led a revolution, and laid the foundations for a new world. Now he’s an outlaw. Cast out of the very Republic he founded, with half his fleet destroyed, he wages a rogue war on Mercury. Outnumbered and outgunned, is he still the hero who broke the chains? Or will he become the very evil he fought to destroy? In his darkening shadow, a new hero rises. Lysander au Lune, the displaced heir to the old empire, has returned to bridge the divide between the Golds of the Rim and Core. If united, their combined might may prove fatal to the fledgling Republic. On…

The Reaper is a legend, more myth than man: the savior of worlds, the leader of the Rising, the breaker of chains.

But the Reaper is also Darrow, born of the red soil of Mars: a husband, a father, a friend.

Marooned far from home after a devastating defeat on the battlefields of Mercury, Darrow longs to return to his wife and sovereign, Virginia, to defend Mars from its bloodthirsty would-be conqueror Lysander.

Lysander longs to destroy the Rising and restore the supremacy of Gold, and will raze the worlds to realize his ambitions.

The worlds once needed the Reaper. But now they need Darrow, and Darrow needs the people he loves—Virginia, Cassius, Sevro—in order to defend the Republic.

So begins Darrow’s long voyage home, an interplanetary adventure where old friends will reunite, new alliances will be forged, and rivals will clash on the battlefield.

Because Eo’s dream is still alive—and after the dark age will come a new age: of light, of victory, of hope.

Darrow was born a slave. He became a weapon.
He ended centuries of Gold rule, broke the chains of an empire, and now he's the hero of a brave new republic. But at terrible cost.
At the edge of the solar system, the grandson of the emperor he murdered dreams of revenge.
In his hidden fortress in the oceans of Venus, the Ash Lord lies in wait, plotting to crush the newborn democracy.
And, at home, a young Red girl who's lost everything to the Rising questions whether freedom was just another Gold lie.
In a fearsome new world where Obsidian pirates roam the Belt, famine and genocide ravage Mars, and crime lords terrorise Luna, it's time for Darrow and a cast of new characters from across the solar system to face down the chaos that revolution has unleashed.

He broke the chains
Then broke the world...
A decade ago Darrow led a revolution, and laid the foundations for a new world. Now he's an outlaw.
Cast out of the very Republic he founded, with half his fleet destroyed, he wages a rogue war on Mercury. Outnumbered, outgunned but not out thought. Is he still the hero who broke the chains? Or will he become the agent of the world's destruction?
Is it time for another legend to take his place?
Lysander au Lune, the displaced heir to the old empire, has returned to the Core. First he must survive Gold backstabbing, then Darrow. Will he bring peace to mankind at the edge of his sword?
And on Luna, Mustang, the embattled sovereign of the Republic, must save both democracy and her exiled husband millions of kilometres away.
The only thing certain in the Solar System is treachery. And that the Rising is entering a new Dark Age.

In viitor, populatia lumii e impartita in clase avand functii strict si clar definite, iar fiecarei clase ii corespunde cate o culoare. Darrow e un Rosu si un Sondor al Iadului care lucreaza in adancul minelor de pe Marte pentru a face suprafata planetei locuibila. La fel ca toti cei din neamul lui, trudeste din greu pentru a oferi un viitor mai bun generatiilor urmatoare.

Darrow va descoperi insa destul de repede ca umanitatea ajunsese demult sa populeze planeta Marte, iar cei ca el sunt tinuti drept sclavi de o clasa conducatoare decadenta, cea Aurie. Singurul mod in care se poate face dreptate in aceasta societate abuziva este ca Darrow sa se infiltreze in mijlocul Auriilor, devenind unul dintre ei.

From the world of the best-selling YA series Red Rising comes a story of love and loss and rage!

In the future, when mankind has spread across the stars, the hierarchy of man is dictated by the color of one’s caste. The Golds rule all, but what will happen when one falls for a lowly Red? See how a forbidden love will set the course of events for the future and lead to the formation of the formidable Sons of Ares!

Written by author Pierce Brown (The Red Rising Trilogy) and Rik Hoskin (Heroes of Skyrealm, Brandon Sanderson’s White Sand), with art by Eli Powell (Yakuza Demon Killers, The 13th Artifact), comes the in-continuity story of revolution and Red Rising!

Darrow is a Helldiver, one of a thousand men and women who live in the vast caves beneath the surface of Mars, generations of people who spend their lives toiling to mine the precious elements that will allow the planet to be terraformed. Just knowing that, one day, people will be able to walk the surface of the planet is enough to justify their sacrifice. The Earth is dying, and Darrow and his people are the only hope humanity has left.
Until the day Darrow learns that it is all a lie. That Mars has been habitable - and inhabited - for generations, by a class of people calling themselves the Golds. A class of people who look down at Darrow and his fellows as slave labour, to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought.
Until the day Darrow, with the help of a mysterious group of rebels, disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their society.

'I'm still playing games. This is just the deadliest yet.'
Darrow is a rebel forged by tragedy. For years he and his fellow Reds worked the mines, toiling to make the surface of Mars inhabitable. They were, they believed, mankind's last hope. Until Darrow discovered that it was all a lie, and that the Red were nothing more than unwitting slaves to an elitist ruling class, the Golds, who had been living on Mars in luxury for generations.
In Red Rising, Darrow infiltrated Gold society, to fight in secret for a better future for his people. Now fully embedded amongst the Gold ruling class, Darrow continues his dangerous work to bring them down from within. It's a journey that will take him further than he's ever been before - but is Darrow truly willing to pay the price that rebellion demands?
A life-or-death tale of vengeance with an unforgettable hero at its heart, Golden Son guarantees Pierce Brown's continuing status as one of fiction's most exciting new voices.
