Darrow and his family have spent their lives mining beneath the surface of Mars. They are "Reds," the lowest caste in a new world strictly divided by "color," where upward mobility is impossible. To help humanity escape an Earth depleted of resources and colonize other planets, they serve as the most basic and hardest-working Reds, full of hope that their hardships are but stepping stones to a brighter future.

Until one night, Darrow loses the reward he toiled for—and his beloved wife—and nothing can stop him from giving up his life and the endless, sunless drudgery.

Yet, Darrow's plea doesn't bring peaceful death: the mysterious revolutionary group "Sons of Ares" brings him to the surface, revealing the cruel truth: a good life is no longer a slogan, but something Reds and other lower castes are simply not allowed to enjoy. The Sons of Ares want Darrow to undergo a transformation to infiltrate the highest echelon, the "Golds," and overthrow this injustice—but why Darrow? What is the "Sons of Ares"? And where will the trials Darrow must face lead him?

If they stand too high to hear our cries—

Then I will go up and tell them, or pull them down.

You think you've read dystopian stories before? Don't fool yourself!

You think you've seen evil future regimes? No!

Compared to what's in this book, they're just flat villains in cartoons.

You think you know how corrupt humanity can be? You haven't seen anything yet!

I wouldn't call this "the next 'Hunger Games'," because it's more than that—author, after I've finished "Red Rising," what else can you expect me to read besides the sequel?
