About the author

Hello. I'm Pierce Brown, the author of the Red Rising Saga, a NYT #1 bestseller.
I figured I'd write you myself than have corporate copy pasted below my totally natural author photo.

In my books you'll find stories of men and women finding their inner strength when all seems lost. You'll also find me exploring themes of love, violence, hope, and power--what it means, why people seek it, and how they hold onto it.

This book has to be one of the best books I’ve ever read and lives up to the title of dark age. There was some moment in part 3 that I had to put the book down because of how sorrowful it was! 😭😭

This series is too much. I can’t cope.

You know it’s good when you have to message your friend whose read it every 5 mins when there’s a new plot twist your brain can’t handle or when Lysander is being such a c**t you just can’t contain your rage.

So much death. But somehow I still loved it. Now I just need to decide whether to wait it out for light bringer GA or listen/read the boring version 😩

This is an incredible story with countless amazing and heart breaking moments. Be warned its called Dark Age for a reason.
