In this sequel to Red Rising, Darrow falls out of favor with
his benefactor, Nero au Augustus after losing his final battle at the Academy
to rival Karnus au Bellona. Without Augustus’s support, there is no one
to protect Darrow from the bloodthirsty Bellona family. Out of options,
Darrow makes a deal with the duplicitous (and quite likely psychotic)
Jackal. Darrow also reestablishes contact with the rebel Sons of Ares –
or what remains of them. As Darrow becomes more deeply entrenched as a
leader of the Peerless Scarred, does he risk losing touch with his Red
origins?
