This week I am waiting on
Iron Gold (Red Rising Saga, #4) by Pierce Brown
Publication Date: January 16th, 2018
Goodreads Summary
They call him father, liberator, warlord, Reaper. But he feels a boy as he falls toward the pale blue planet, his armor red, his army vast, his heart heavy. It is the tenth year of war and the thirty-second of his life.
A decade ago, Darrow was the hero of the revolution he believed would break the chains of the Society. But the Rising has shattered everything: Instead of peace and freedom, it has brought endless war. Now he must risk everything he has fought for on one last desperate mission. Darrow still believes he can save everyone, but can he save himself?
And throughout the worlds, other destinies entwine with Darrow’s to change his fate forever:
A young Red girl flees tragedy in her refugee camp and achieves for herself a new life she could never have imagined.
An ex-soldier broken by grief is forced to steal the most valuable thing in the galaxy—or pay with his life.
And Lysander au Lune, the heir in exile to the sovereign, wanders the stars with his mentor, Cassius, haunted by the loss of the world that Darrow transformed, and dreaming of what will rise from its ashes.
Confession, I’ve still not finished the Red Rising trilogy. *hides in shame* I actually completely forgot about it until I saw this book. I feel like I’m going to have to do a re-read of the trilogy because it’s been so long since I read the first two books in the series that I’ve forgotten some details. Once that’s done I can jump into this series, but I am excited to see how the events of Red Rising have impacted the world.
What’s your most anticipated book?
Ahh I can’t wait for this!! Yeah it definitely sounds like a good idea to reread the other books before getting to the last one (cos they’re awesome 😉 ) I really hope you like it!!

I can’t wait for this book! You can catch up on the third soon but, yes, you might need to refresh. There’s a lot going on in these books. I love this series so much! Thanks for the reminder!

I had every intention of reading Morning Star the minute it came out, but I just wasn’t in the mood to do so. I definitely need a re-read soon.

It’s such an intense series and so incredible. I need to finish the third book, but I think I’m going to re-read the series from the start.
