Light Bringer

Red Rising, Book 6

By: Pierce Brown

Narrated by: Tim Gerard Reynolds

Darrow returns as Pierce Brown’s New York Times bestselling Red Rising series continues in the thrilling sequel to Dark Age.

“The measure of a man is not the fear he sows in his enemies. It is the hope he gives his friends.”—Virginia au Augustus

The Reaper is a legend, more myth than man: the savior of worlds, the leader of the Rising, the breaker of chains.

But the Reaper is also Darrow, born of the red soil of Mars: a husband, a father, a friend.

The worlds once needed the Reaper. But now they need Darrow. Because after the dark age will come a new age: of light, of victory, of hope.

Good story, miss the VA’s

The story was overall pretty excellent but I really miss Moira Quirk, James Langton and Rendah Heywood.

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!!!

The story is so well written, and coupled with Tim Gerard Reynolds narration, it’s an awesome combination.
I was not initially a fan of the multiple voice actors in the prior two books, but after multiple relistenings of the whole series, they grew on me. That being said, all you people complaining that they should have had more than one voice narrating. Take your Bloody Damn opinions and shove them up your fart hole, as Sevro would say. Tim Gerard Reynolds is an artist, and did an excellent job as Darrow, Lysander, and Lyria.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to start this one over again to see what I may have missed the first read through.
“BREAK THE CHAINS!”

BEST BOOK IN THE SERIES YET

I say this everytime but slag it, this is Pierce Brown's best work yet. absolutely powerful and transformative experience.

Also I don't get the complaints about the voice acting, I personally loved it.

Fantastic in all ways

Story? Great
Voice? Superb
Writer? Phenomenal
Tears? Shed
Hail? Reaper

In all, easily in my top 3 favorite books of all time. I usually can't be bothered to write reviews for anything, but this is the first purchase I've felt truly deserves it.

Per aspera, ad astra.

Another masterpiece!

Another great work by Pierce Brown, only flaw in the audio version is the voices used for the different characters altered slightly from the previous books.

Great story, great addition to the saga.
