Red Rising by Pierce Brown

Did we really need another hunger games - now on mars! Edition ? No.
But, is the book actually any good? Yes. Very good, in fact. if you take away the fact that it's very clearly ripping off hunger games in the basic story, everything else about this book is interesting and well written.
Especially Darrow, who is a great balance of call for revolution and reluctance for revolution. Also, where hunger games is let's kill each other, this one is more let's conquer each other, which is generally more politics and less shooting arrows, though there are also a few arrows.
