Urzeala Tronurilor întâlnește Jocurile Foamei...în spațiu! Cam așa aș putea descrie pe scurt acțiunea din Red Rising, de Pierce Brown. Nu am fost o mare fană a cărților SF pana am dat de această serie, și pot spune cu mâna pe inimă că m-am îndrăgostit cu adevărat de acest gen. Pierce Brown creează o poveste extraordinară, cu personaje complexe și intrigi neașteptate. Și chiar dacă terminologia folosită în general în genul SF, sau principiile pe baza cărora funcționează tehnologia universului creat, sunt greu de înțeles în multe opere, poate chiar ușor intimidante, Brown reușește să creeze o lume ancorată în realitate și ușor digerabilă pentru toți cititorii. Am rămas profund impresionată de ușurința cu care întâmplările din carte ar putea deveni realitate în scurt timp, dacă omenirea continuă ascensiunea tehnologică în același ritm alert ca și până acum. Brown nu irosește absolut niciun cuvânt. Lupta pentru supraviețuire a personajului principal, Darrow O Lykos, ne este dezvăluită încă din primul capitol al primei cărți, și va continua pe tot parcursul trilogiei. Condus de răzbunare, Darrow va cunoaște ce înseamnă adevărata durere, amara trădare, dar și prietenia, poate chiar iubirea, venită din partea persoanelor care trebuiau să îi fie dușmani. Oare va reuși Darrow să dea la o parte ura și prejudecățile pentru a avea o viață normală, sau adevărații săi dușmani vor împiedica acest lucru și îl vor obliga să preia un rol pe care nimeni nu și l-ar dori, sacrificându-și însăși propria persoană? Vă las pe voi să aflați. Recomand din tot sufletul această trilogie, precum si continuarea!

Recenzii

Fast-paced, gripping, well-written-the sort of book you cannot put down. I am already on the lookout for the next one
Ender, Katniss, and now Darrow: Pierce Brown's empire-crushing debut is a sprawling vision
[A] spectacular adventure . . . one heart-pounding ride . . . Pierce Brown's dizzyingly good debut novel evokes The Hunger Games, Lord of the Flies, and Ender's Game. . . . [Red Rising] has everything it needs to become meteoric
[A] top-notch debut novel . . . Red Rising ascends above a crowded dystopian field
Pierce Brown has done an astounding job at delivering a powerful piece of literature that will definitely make a mark in the minds of readers
A story of vengeance, warfare and the quest for power . . . reminiscent of The Hunger Games and Game of Thrones
[A] great debut . . . The author gathers a spread of elements together in much the same way George R. R. Martin does
Compulsively readable and exceedingly entertaining . . . a must for both fans of classic sci-fi and fervent followers of new school dystopian epics
Reminiscent of . . . Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games . . . [Red Rising] will captivate readers and leave them wanting more
Very ambitious . . . a natural for Hunger Games fans of all ages
A Hollywood-ready story with plenty of action and thrills
Pierce offers a Hollywood-ready story with plenty of action and thrills
Pierce Brown's relentlessly entertaining debut channels the excitement of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card.
RED RISING is what The Hunger Games should have been.
Incredible Sci-Fi Cross Between 'Hunger Games' And 'Enders Game' Pulls It Off
It has hints of Harry Potter and Hunger Games, but it is its own animal. And it is not YA. The writing is excellent and the story is better. This is one terrific fantasy book, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
With all of the tension of The Hunger Games and heady dose of savagery that lives somewhere in the space between The Lord of the Flies and ancient Greek mythology that revels in the violent deeds of the deities of old, RED RISING is compulsively readable and exceedingly entertaining. The blend of familiar and unfailingly effective machinations that clash with the stark new reality Brown has created make this tale a must for both fans of classic sci-fi and fervent followers of new school dystopian epics.
RED RISING wouldn't exist without the countless classics it takes its cues from, but this great debut builds a formidable fortress upon their familiar foundations, making such interesting alterations along the way that its piecemeal parts are essentially rendered unrecognisable. Like mankind has in the past, Pierce Brown reaches for the stars, and mostly hits that monumental mark.
The heart-stopping excitement of the Hunger Games meets the pulse-pounding majesty and complexity of Game of Thrones, all wrapped up in the visionary beauty and melancholy of Blade Runner... A shot of adrenalin for your imagination.

Descriere

***The first book in the incredible New York Times bestselling series***

The Earth is dying. Darrow is a Red, a miner in the interior of Mars. His mission is to extract enough precious elements to one day tame the surface of the planet and allow humans to live on it. The Reds are humanity's last hope.

Or so it appears, until the day Darrow discovers it's all al lie. That Mars has been habitable - and inhabited - for generations, by a class of people calling themselves the Golds. A class of people who look down on Darrow and his fellows as slave labour, to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought.

Until the day that Darrow, with the help of a mysterious group of rebels, disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their command school, intent on taking down his oppressors from the inside. But the command school is a battlefield - and Darrow isn't the only student with an agenda.

Break the chains. Live for more.
