About this listen

Darrow is a Red, a member of the lowest caste in the color-coded society of the future. Like his fellow Reds, he works all day, believing that he and his people are making the surface of Mars livable for future generations. Yet he spends his life willingly, knowing that his blood and sweat will one day result in a better world for his children. But Darrow and his kind have been betrayed. Soon he discovers that humanity reached the surface generations ago. Vast cities and sprawling parks spread across the planet.

Darrow - and Reds like him - are nothing more than slaves to a decadent ruling class. Inspired by a longing for justice, and driven by the memory of lost love, Darrow sacrifices everything to infiltrate the legendary Institute, a proving ground for the dominant Gold caste, where the next generation of humanity's overlords struggle for power. He will be forced to compete for his life and the very future of civilization against the best and most brutal of Society's ruling class. There, he will stop at nothing to bring down his enemies...even if it means he has to become one of them to do so.

Seems a slog at start for quite some time. Okiish and character can have more depth n meaning. Story leaves you with many characters n clans a bit confusing

Had high expectations

A very well written book that kept me engaged from the first word to the last. Easy language, beautiful flow and well-paced. The narration was simply masterful! Recommended.

Brilliant, Frantic and goes down easy

The theme, the story and the realistic representations of us humans are fleshed out so well.
I especially loved the main winter song with the narrator's tune, wouldn't have sung it like that myself.
Looking forward to finishing the series.
Parts of it makes you think twice.
Thank you for keeping it in audible plus catalogue.

There is too much gore for my liking but I understand why many will love this book. The story is well spun, amazingly imaginative and hovers somewhere between fantasy and sci fi. I wish the narrator was more closer to the age of the protagonist so it would seem more real.

Its a really good book though not for me

The story drags on for the first couple of hours after that it gets very interesting!
Giving it a 5Star

Slow Start, stick with it

You know story is good and naration is awesome.. but recording is slipping some phrases and sentences every couple of paragraphs.

Nearly an Abridged version...

This audiobook adds a layer of awesomeness to this incredible story, and it has certainly opened my mind to the possibility of other books narrated by Tim, that I might enjoy listening to.

If the Red Rising series which depicts an amazing dystopian world and it's adventures grabs you, (I'm sure it will if you give it a chance) it won't let you go until there's no more to listen.

Amazing Story!.. Spellbinding Narration
