THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES

The heart-pounding and high-octane first book in a spectacular series that combines the drama of Game of Thrones with the epic scope of Star Wars.

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY, BUZZFEED, GOODREADS AND SHELF AWARENESS.

'I would have lived in peace. But my enemies brought me war.'

Darrow is a Helldiver. A pioneer of Mars.

Born to slave beneath the earth so that one day, future generations might live above it.

He is a Red - humankind's lowest caste. But he has something the Golds - the ruthless ruling class - will never understand.

He has a wife he worships, a family who give him strength. He has love.

And when they take that from him, all that remains is revenge . . .
