A terrific ending to this trilogy. The author has done a terrific job of combining complex military strategy in space, with lots of political intrigue and back-stabbing, while providing even further character development (A hard thing to…

I have read science fiction since the 1980s from authors whose works date as far back as the 1930s. Brown's entire trilogy meld together seamlessly to create a vivid world, one with excellent character depth, plot twists, socio-political…

Lots of fairly vague spoilers. This is all over the place...but I had a lot of feelings. :) I decided not to finish after getting 13 hours and 53 minutes into the audiobook. I usually like books that have quite a bit of internal…

With many fantasy, dystopian book series, there is always the concern that the finale and the resolution will not live up to what you expected or won’t leave the characters where you would have liked them to end up. With this final…

last book of the Red Rising trilogy. I had a hard time getting into this last story. It is the final battle in the war started by Darrow to free his people. Just ok for me but I did enjoy the trilogy overall

Definitely a trilogy worth reading!!

Wow. This one I feel dragged a little in the middle, so it took me a little longer to finish. But all the twists and turns at the end were jaw-dropping! I did see the very last reveal coming a mile away - like pretty near from the…

A powerful conclusion to the Red Rising trilogy. Full of twists and turns, non-stop action, and some truly heart-wrenching moments, Brown's finale is as strong as the first book.

I really enjoyed how the trilogy was ended. Unexpected plot twists kept the book exciting all the way through!

This book is a must read. It a bit slower paced but it wraps up the trilogy really well. After reading Iron gold I realized how well this book got everything together. This series create a world easily remembered.

Pierce Brown is incredible. Twists around every corner, a challenging message and a sliver of hope through it all. Really, though, this book is for the hardcore sci-fi fan. The series was lauded as 'The Hunger Games all grown up,' but…

Strong conclusion to an excellent trilogy. I enjoyed the other two books a bit more, but that's simply because this one was very war-focused and that's not my favourite topic. I do, however, understand why that was necessary within the…

The fast-paced conclusion to the *Red Rising* trilogy sweeps the galaxy into full scale civil war. Obviously the lowborn Darrow is a huge part of this book, but I was pleased to find the story shifting to include more about Darrow's…

​​The thrill ride comes to an end. I read through this book expecting to find something that would let me down. It's rare to find a trilogy where at least one entry doesn't fail to live up to the other books. This is one of those rare…

I thought it was a great series! It ended as best it could, although the third installment was not quite as prone to making me pump my fist in the air. I did enjoy the theme that his community and relationships are what gave Darrow his…

Mostly just a denouement that should have been in the second book of the series. Along with far too much narration and story-telling with no purpose. Seems to me a person could read the second installment of the series and shrug, go on…

An interesting end to the trilogy, although it felt much more subdued than the first two installments. Hopefully we get to see more of this universe even though we've reached the end of the reaper's journey!

This final installment wasn't quite as tight as the first two (the plot meanders a tad), but it was still awesome. I loved this series, and the finale didn't disappoint.

All in all, the whole trilogy was fantastic. The ending to Morning Star wraps up the series nicely, and should leave few people disappointed. Three thumbs up!

I absolutely loved this trilogy! I first picked up "Red Rising" based on a review posted here. I am so grateful to others who post their comments because they have led me to so many great reads that I might have missed otherwise. This…

“All deeds that last are painted in blood” Page 5 Pierce Brown was able to capture my imagination, and my heart, with Red Rising and Golden Son. At each turn I worried that the books and the characters I adore would end up flat lining…

Like most authors Mr. Brown is happy to kill literally millions and still expect the reader to take a personal interest in the few main characters in his narratives. No one should ever write a book about war unless they have actually been…
