By: Pierce Brown

Narrated by: Alejandro Ruiz, Richard Rohan, John Kielty, Kay Eluvian, Ian Russell, Jenna Sharpe, Stewart Crank, Andrew Colford, Jon Vertullo, Andrew James Spooner, Stephanie Németh-Parker

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 toils willingly, trusting 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 lush wilds 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.

One of the greatest audiobooks I’ve ever heard

The voice acting was excellent truly bringing to life an elite story. Their haven’t been many stories that have immersed me the same way.

A continual stunner

Excellent performances and the dramatic adaptation cast really brings the fantastic Brown story to three dimensional, Technicolor vibrancy.

Wow!

Just when I thought I couldn't love this series anymore this comes out. Mind blown. I can't wait for the next two books!

The beginning

The story gives rise to the strengths and frailties of human existence throughout the cosmos!

Amazing!

Listened to the whole story in one day, it was so good! And I really like the full cast narration and recognizing characters’ voices.
