Red Rising Saga
On a colonized Mars ruled by a rigid color-coded caste system, sixteen-year-old Darrow of Lykos works as a Helldiver in the underground mines, believing his people are pioneering an uninhabited world. When he discovers the truth about the Society’s hierarchy and the suffering it imposes on Reds, he is drawn into a dangerous plan that will require him to infiltrate the ruling Golds. The central conflict is Darrow’s struggle to survive and challenge the system from within while holding onto his identity and purpose.
