Light Bringer: Red Rising Series, Book 6 by Pierce Brown
In Pierce Brown's highly anticipated sequel to "Dark Age," the Red Rising series continues with "The Reaper." Darrow, the legendary figure known as the Reaper, is more than just a symbol of hope; he is a man, a husband, a father, and a friend. After a devastating defeat on the battlefields of Mercury, Darrow is marooned far from home, longing to return to his wife and sovereign, Virginia, to defend Mars from the bloodthirsty ambitions of Lysander.
Lysander, determined to restore the supremacy of Gold and destroy the Rising, will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, even if it means razing entire worlds. As Darrow embarks on a long voyage home, he must rely on the people he loves—Virginia, Cassius, Sevro—to defend the Republic.
In this interplanetary adventure, old friends will reunite, new alliances will be forged, and rivals will clash on the battlefield. As Eo's dream of a better future continues to inspire, Darrow and his allies strive to bring about a new age of light, victory, and hope after the dark age that has plagued their world.
