Iron Gold (Part 1 of 2) (Dramatized Adaptation)

Red Rising, Book 4

By: Pierce Brown

Narrated by: Jenna Sharpe, Alex Hill-Knight, Todd Scofield, full cast, John Kielty, Stewart Crank, Richard Rohan, Melody Muze, Jon Vertullo, Elena Anderson, Ian Putnam, Christopher Tester

They call him father, liberator, warlord, Slave King, Reaper. But he feels a boy as he falls toward the war-torn planet, his armor red, his army vast, his heart heavy. It is the tenth year of war and the thirty-third 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 all 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.

Red Rising was the story of the end of one universe. Iron Gold is the story of the creation of a new one. Witness the beginning of a stunning new saga of tragedy and triumph from masterly New York Times bestselling author Pierce Brown.

Worth the wait!

I have been excited to hear this book acted out for months and I was not disappointed in the slightest. wonderful narration and sound effects. As much as I love the normal version of this audiobook, this takes the cake and delivers many improvements.
Keep an ear out for extra context or jokes in the background. Absolutely excellent.

Depressing

This is easily the most depressing book series I have ever read. It has it’s moments but soooooo many people die

so far

Part one is great!
it did take me a minute to get into and that is because this one is told in 3or 4 different characters timelines and I dislike going into books without knowing that. Makes them harder for me to understand.
but once I figured that out and the normal characters were still involved then I was good.
Everything is still incredible with this series.

Better than ever

Everything had been finely tuned and perfect with this adaptation! I can not wait for the part 2 and the other books to get the same treatment! Break the chains!

It's perfect

everything, the voice actors, the sounds, the entire thing is great. now if we could just have party 2.

Can't wait for part 2!

So much more enjoyable and enthralling than the normal audio book. I highly recommend all of the Red Rising graphic audio books so far. I think my only compaint with this one would be Lysander's narration. Compared to the other narrators, his narration feels so much more rigid and monotone. His dialogue is thankfully done much better though. Still a great experience overall and I can't wait for part 2!

An absolutely incredible cast

Love this series! This audio book helped me understand the book way more than when I first physically read it in my hands.

Didn’t like the new characters at first but man did they add so much to this book

Performances were great as always. I would say iron gold is a bit more of a slow burn. Excited for the next adaptations!
