Synopsis

The Reaper has come. And he's brought hell with him.

The unputdownable third book in the explosive global sensation from Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author Pierce Brown.

Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Golds demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his people. But Darrow is determined to fight back.

Risking everything to breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive cutthroat rivalries, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution.

Now the time has come.

But Darrow and his comrades face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy, including 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.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

[quote]

Darrow is the Reaper of Mars.
Born to toil, carved to fight, destined to lead.
But he is a broken man.
Exposed as a Red in a world ruled by Golds, he has been captured and tormented until he is something less than human.
And yet, he is humanity's last chance.

In facing a godlike, ruthless enemy, he must call on every last ounce of strength to prove that loyalty, friendship - and love - are a more powerful than any coldhearted machine of war.

He has been first Red, then Gold. Now, he must transcend them all. He must become the hero his people believe he is.

'You could call [Pierce] Brown science fiction's best-kept secret. In Morning Star, the trilogy's devastating and inspiring final chapter . . . he flirts with volume, oscillating between thundering space escapes and hushed, tense parleys between rivals, where the cinematic dialogue oozes such specificity and suspense you could almost hear a pin drop between pages. His achievement is in creating an uncomfortably familiar world of flaw, fear, and promise' Entertainment Weekly

À propos de la deuxième de couverture

Darrow is a Helldiver, one of a thousand men and women who live in the vast caves beneath the surface of Mars, generations of people who spend their lives toiling to mine the precious elements that will allow the planet to be terraformed. Just knowing that, one day, people will be able to walk the surface of the planet is enough to justify their sacrifice. The Earth is dying, and Darrow and his people are the only hope humanity has left.

Until the day Darrow learns that it is all a lie. That Mars has been habitable - and inhabited - for generations, by a class of people calling themselves the Golds. A class of people who look down at Darrow and his fellows as slave labour, to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought.

Until the day Darrow, with the help of a mysterious group of rebels, disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their society.
