Dark Age by Pierce Brown

entropyseeker's review against another edition

adventurous challenging dark tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

4.5

I dropped this series 8 or so years ago because Darrow's decline from a man of the people into a man of war made my heart too sad. Picking this book up after so many years later and I forgot just how gruesome the Red Rising series can be. I know it's called Dark Age, but goddamn, read the content warnings. Once again, characters you love die and things only get worse for our cast. Fingers crossed that it eventually looks up.
