První díl bestsellerové sci-fi ságy z prostředí Marsu v novém českém překladu Darrow je ve svých šestnácti letech čerstvým ženáčem a také nejvýkonnějším horníkem kolonie Lykos na Marsu. Je to tvrdý život, celý den se koupat ve vlastním potu v neoprenovém skafandru a řídit obří rypadlo v podzemních štolách plných smrtonosných důlních zmijí a výbušných plynových kapes. Darrow nezná nic než otrockou dřinu, skrovné příděly jídla a přísné zákony, nemilosrdně vymáhané nejvyšší kastou Zlatých, ale po boku své životní lásky Eo si nestěžuje. Koneckonců dělá důležitou práci — on a miliony dalších horníků, techniků, vědců a dalších průkopníků připravují Mars pro budoucí přesídlení lidstva, které dnes živoří na ekologicky zpustošené Zemi. Jednoho dne mu však tragická událost převrátí život vzhůru nohama a Darrow začíná pomalu odhalovat strašlivou pravdu. Rudý úsvit je celosvětový bestseller, který nevídaným způsobem kombinuje prvky fantasy, dystopie, starořímské mytologie a space opery. Vychází ve více než 20 světových jazycích Přes 600 000 hodnocení na Goodreads ––– Brownův příběh je neúprosný a dobře vystavěný, s množstvím skrytých plánů a morálních nejednoznačností, které čtenáře nutí k zamyšlení. Nepřetržitá napínavá jízda s velkolepými, propracovanými postavami a vygradovanými zápletkami, které rozproudí vaši fantazii. — Grimdark Magazine Tipl bych si, že spousta lidí tuto sérii přirovnává k Hunger Games, ale podle mě je to pro ni medvědí služba. Rudý úsvit má mnohem hlubší, bohatší svět, promyšlenější postavy a komplexnější zápletku. — Patrick Rothfuss, autor série Kronika královraha Nesmírně čtivá a mimořádně zábavná kniha. Nezbytnost jak pro fanoušky klasické sci-fi, tak pro zaryté příznivce dystopických eposů nové školy. — Examiner

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.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Red Rising thrilled readers and announced the presence of a talented new author. Golden Son changed the game and took the story of Darrow to the next level. Now comes the exhilarating next chapter in the Red Rising Saga: Morning Star. ITW THRILLER AWARD FINALIST • “[Brown’s] achievement is in creating an uncomfortably familiar world of flaw, fear, and promise.”—Entertainment Weekly Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Gold overlords 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 the cutthroat rivalries that breed Society’s mightiest warriors, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution that will tear the hierarchy apart from within. Finally, the time has come. But devotion to honor and hunger for vengeance run deep on both sides. Darrow and his comrades-in-arms 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. Praise for Morning Star “There is no one writing today who does shameless, Michael Bay–style action set pieces the way Brown does. The battle scenes are kinetic, bloody, breathless, crazy. Everything is on fire all the time.”—NPR “Morning Star is this trilogy’s Return of the Jedi. . . . The impactful battles that make up most of Morning Star are damn near operatic. . . . It absolutely satisfies.”—Tordotcom “Excellent . . . Brown’s vivid, first-person prose puts the reader right at the forefront of impassioned speeches, broken families, and engaging battle scenes . . . as this interstellar civil war comes to a most satisfying conclusion.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “A page-turning epic filled with twists and turns . . . The conclusion to Brown’s saga is simply stellar.”—Booklist (starred review) Don’t miss any of Pierce Brown’s Red Rising Saga: RED RISING • GOLDEN SON • MORNING STAR • IRON GOLD • DARK AGE • LIGHT BRINGER
