Executive Summary: This has many of the same issues I had with the last book, but overall I liked it better.Audiobook: I really love Tim Gerard Reynolds as a narrator, and I have generally mixed feelings about multiple narrators. However this series has 3 additional quality narrators, so that makes this still a must listen to me. Mr. Reynolds is still my favorite of the bunch, but they all add their own extra something.Full ReviewMuch like the originally trilogy, I found the first book of this sequel trilogy frustrating. And again like the original trilogy I liked the second book much better. However some of my issues with [b:Iron Gold 33257757 Iron Gold (Red Rising Saga, #4) Pierce Brown https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1482475064l/33257757.SY75.jpg 49451841] have not gone away in this book. It might be that I had some time to cool down, it could simply be that I came into this book being ready to be pissed off again that makes the difference. It's hard to say.I definitely don't think the sequels are anywhere near as good as [b:Golden Son 18966819 Golden Son (Red Rising, #2) Pierce Brown https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1394684475l/18966819.SY75.jpg 26984955] or [b:Morning Star 18966806 Morning Star (Red Rising, #3) Pierce Brown https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1461354277l/18966806.SY75.jpg 26984941]. This being so deep into the series, there isn't a lot I can say about the book without major series spoilers.I am hoping considering the developments of this book that the final book of this trilogy will help redeem the last two. I guess we'll see what happens. Either way I'll be picking it up as soon as it's out, so what more can an author really ask for?
