Golden Son has many gripping moments where you do not want to put it down. I missed appointments and meetings because I could not stop. It made me furious, excited, cry, and question everything existential.

This book made me laugh and feel enraged, feel hopeful and then have that hope repeatedly shattered
In the interim, until I have the time to put together a better review, this is a good book. My only comment would be to read it closely after finishing Red Rising. I waited a year which was too long and left me scrambling to remember characters and storylines from the first book...which is only a fault of my own. I will continue on with this trilogy.
My second comments are as follows; Although I am enjoying these books they are overall (likely) better suited towards the male readers (and hey with all the chic lit out there why can’t a series like this exist). I have seen many women reviewers disregarding these books based on the innumerable chauvinistic male characteristics of Darrow and others. It’s a trilogy of Gods and followers. Of War and politics. Good and evil. The women are characterized by God strengths as well, to be noted along with their femininity, so it’s a tit for tat argument. Worth the read.
