Read/listen to the Red Rising series first. This book is about one of the characters and might spoil the story a little bit if you haven’t read those books first. I loved hearing about Fitchner and the interview with Pierce at the end. Unfortunately no tv show in sight yet. The story play was great, sound effects and all. It was like a movie in my mind!

Interesting at the beginning and at the end. The middle part is a bit long. The dystopian world is very well crafted. Many characters. Open ending, it is known that it's a saga that continues. Lots of strategy and twists. I recommend it 100%. (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5

It's pretty good, and I really like the darkness of the narration, a bit of the rawness. It's the same world as The Hunger Games but much better than those who tried it. (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

Wow, it's been a long time since a dystopia grabbed my attention so much, I don't even know where to start, I just know that even though the beginning didn't catch me as much, from the second part on, it made me not want to let it go.
In conclusion, I loved it and I can't wait to read the continuation. (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

The worldbuilding is amazing. I loved almost everything about this book. It has made me want to destroy that society too, excellent help. (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

... At first I said, "Come on, this is interesting": an underclass with ideas of rebellion, war, and justice starting their struggle to overthrow the system. A protagonist who loses a lot, transforms, and sets in motion the plan to infiltrate, and I was like: Yes! Come on, I want more!... (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5

I really liked this book, the friendships among the characters and how they fight for power.
I also found it interesting how the world created by the author is structured, his way of describing things and landscapes, his imagination...
This book is a quick read that will leave you very intrigued and eager to read the next one. I recommend it and it gets 5/5⭐ without a doubt :) (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5

A story I read thanks to the opinion of ALEXELCAPO, which made me discover an unparalleled saga, one that captivates and is different from the others. Although in some parts the translation is not entirely correct and it could get a bit confusing. The truth is that I recommend this saga 100 percent.

Possibly the best dystopian novel to date. It conveys from the first page the anguish, fear, and feeling of revenge... of the characters. It takes it a step further. 100% recommended. (Translated from Spanish) - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5
