Biographical note

Pierce Brown is the author of Red Rising, the first installment in a science fiction trilogy. Though Brown was born in Denver, Colorado, his origins are a little more diverse, having called seven states home (Colorado, North Carolina, Arizona, Iowa, Texas, Washington, and California). Now twenty-four, he splits his time between Seattle and Los Angeles.

Before becoming a full-time writer, Brown spent time working as an executive aide on a U.S. Senate Campaign, a script runner at ABC, a freelance web producer, and eventually an NBC Page. His degree from Pepperdine University is in Economics and Political Science.

Pierce offers a Hollywood-ready story with plenty of action and thrills

Publishers Weekly

Pierce Brown's relentlessly entertaining debut channels the excitement of <i>The Hunger Games</i> by Suzanne Collins and <i>Ender's Game</i> by Orson Scott Card.

Rising Shadow

RED RISING is what <i>The Hunger Games</i> should have been.

Fiction Vortex

Incredible Sci-Fi Cross Between<i> 'Hunger Games'</i> And '<i>Enders Game' </i>Pulls It Off

Idigital Times

It has hints of <i>Harry Potter</i> and <i>Hunger Games</i>, 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.

Terry Brooks

With all of the tension of <i>The Hunger Games</i> and heady dose of savagery that lives somewhere in the space between <i>The Lord of the Flies</i> 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.

Fantasy Review Barn

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.

Tor.com

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.

Star Magazine

The unputdownable third book in the Red Rising series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author.Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Golds demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his people. But Darrow is determined to fight back.Risking everything to transform himself and breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive cutthroat rivalries, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution. Finally, the time has come. But Darrow and his comrades face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy. Among them are some Darrow once considered friends. To win, Darrow will need to inspire those shackled in darkness to break their chains, unmake the world their cruel masters have built, and claim a destiny too long denied - and too glorious to surrender.READERS LOVE PIERCE BROWN'Pierce Brown paints a vivid picture of future worlds and you are carried at pace through a thrilling story.

[quote]Darrow is the Reaper of Mars. Born to toil, carved to fight, destined to lead.But he is a broken man. Exposed as a Red in a world ruled by Golds, he has been captured and tormented until he is something less than human.And yet, he is humanity's last chance.In facing a godlike, ruthless enemy, he must call on every last ounce of strength to prove that loyalty, friendship - and love - are a more powerful than any coldhearted machine of war.He has been first Red, then Gold. Now, he must transcend them all. He must become the hero his people believe he is.'You could call [Pierce] Brown science fiction's best-kept secret. In Morning Star, the trilogy's devastating and inspiring final chapter . . . he flirts with volume, oscillating between thundering space escapes and hushed, tense parleys between rivals, where the cinematic dialogue oozes such specificity and suspense you could almost hear a pin drop between pages. His achievement is in creating an uncomfortably familiar world of flaw, fear, and promise' Entertainment Weekly'It absolutely satisfies' Tor.com(pierce brown pic and bio)[thumbnail pb covers for RED RISING and GOLDEN SON]
