Pierce Brown's debut novel is a thrilling and captivating read, drawing inspiration from popular dystopian novels like "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins and "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card.
"I live for the dream that my children will be born free," she declares, speaking of her hope for a future where her offspring can live lives they choose, and inherit their father's land.
"I live for you," the protagonist responds, his tone melancholy.
Eo, the protagonist's lover, places a kiss on his cheek. "Then you must live for more," she urges gently.
Darrow, the main character, is part of the lowest caste in the color-coded society on Mars. Despite this, he willingly dedicates his life to his work as a Red, confident that his labor will make the planet habitable for future generations.
However, Darrow and his fellow Reds are eventually betrayed. He learns that humanity had already reached the planet's surface long before, and he and his people are nothing more than slaves to the ruling class.
Drivin by an inner longing for justice, and fueled by the memory of lost love, Darrow makes the ultimate sacrifice to infiltrate the Institute, a proving ground for the dominant Gold caste, where the next generation of humanity's overlords compete for power. Here, he will stop at nothing to take down his enemies, even if it means having to become one of them.
