Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The Gold overlords 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 the cutthroat rivalries that breed Society's mightiest warriors, climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution that will tear the hierarchy apart from within.

For a decade, Darrow led a revolution against the corrupt color-coded Society. Now, outlawed by the very Republic he founded, he wages a rogue war on Mercury in hopes that he can still salvage the dream of Eo. Lysander au Lune, the heir in exile, has returned to the Core. Determined to bring peace back to mankind at the edge of his sword, he must overcome or unite the treacherous Gold families of the Core and face down Darrow over the skies of war-torn Mercury. But theirs are not the only fates hanging in the balance.

Ten years after the events of Morning Star, Darrow and the Rising are battling the remaining Gold loyalist forces and are closer than ever to abolishing the color-coded caste system of Society for good. But new foes will emerge from the shadows to threaten the imperfect victory Darrow and his friends have earned. Pierce Brown expands the size and scope of his impressive Red Rising universe with new characters, enemies, and conflicts among the stars.

The Reaper is a legend, more myth than man: the savior of worlds, the leader of the Rising, the breaker of chains. But the Reaper is also Darrow, born of the red soil of Mars: a husband, a father, a friend. The worlds once needed the Reaper. But now they need Darrow. Because after the dark age will come a new age: of light, of victory, of hope.

Alright, where were we? Let's see… There's a whole bunch of Scrap Rats. So obviously Ren, the cowardly alchemist, who's now become Super Ren, caught in this whole progressive fantasy mess of towers and time travel. Mira, a Cryopyre Mage, who runs the Guild—classic LitRPG fire-and-ice power combo.

These are side quests. Parallel threads. Moments and consequences that don’t fit neatly into Ren’s forward march, but still matter to the world. You’ll see what other guilds are doing. How districts react. What happens in the gaps between major events. Deals made off-screen. Conflicts that ripple outward instead of upward. This is not required listening to follow the core series. You won’t miss plot beats if you skip it. But if you’ve ever caught yourself thinking: What happened to that faction? How did this situation actually play out? Why does the world feel like it shifted here?

The wall just didn’t look right. Alex has been trying to cope. Life after his deployment had been rough. His ex-wife thought he needed to stop disappointing their daughter. She was right. He would try harder. With six hours before his little girl’s fourth birthday party, he saw the anomaly. One wall was too short. Plenty of time to tear out a panel and look behind it. He found a brick wall. His house wasn’t made of brick. Behind that was another just like the first. He still had time. When the second wall came down, Alex stood and stared at the shining doorway.

Here you are, Book 4. You wanted more dragon action? You’re getting it—bigger, nastier, and ready to burn the world down. Ren’s getting richer, Herald’s in the mix, and the District Historical Society just picked the wrong alchemist and professor combo to mess with. Expect more worldbuilding, nastier politics, and answers to questions nobody wanted—like where the hell a gloom sprite even came from. Oh—and mounts are back. Cheddar the Furious, Muenster of War, and Cheezenado lead the charge in a full-on rat cavalry stampede.

In Book 2 of the Towerbound series, the Scrap Rats finally have a home base—and a target on their back. Dungeon spawn are shifting, guilds are sending spies, and the in-game economy is breaking down. Ren isn’t a hero. He’s a regressor with a potion empire, a bunch of orphans to protect, and just enough foresight to stay one step ahead.

Book 3 of Towerbound cranks everything up. The Scrap Rats are rising—and so is a world-ending dragon. Ren was just a cowardly alchemist hiding behind potions and excuses. But when a global event drops a world boss into their lap, the guild needs more than a healer—they need Super Ren.

As the cosmos reels, the precarious balance of BuyMort is on the brink of collapse. The Sleem have fallen, leaving a power vacuum that echoes across the multiverse. New threats loom as the Church initiates a desperate crusade, not just for dominance but for survival. Facing them? Tyson Dawes, the Windowpuncher, Warlord of Nu-Earth, and CEO of Silken Sands. Meeting the relics of the Church with relics of his own, tricking, baiting, and battling the tremendous power of the Beholders, some say he has gone too far.
