Dark Age is a 2019 science fiction novel by American author Pierce Brown, the second book of a trilogy which continues the story of his Red Rising trilogy (2014–2016). Dark Age takes place immediately after the events of Iron Gold (2018), as the remaining Society forces aim to take back Mercury from the Solar Republic.

Summary[edit]

Darrow of Lykos and his legions are barricaded from all sides on Mercury from the forces of the Ash Lord's daughter Atalantia and Atlas au Rau, the Fear Knight. Lysander au Lune and the Rau family meet Atalantia aboard her vessel the Annihilo to broker an alliance between The Rim and The Core to defeat Darrow and give rise to a new Society. Lysander and his former friend Ajax au Grimmus participate in an Iron Rain and slaughter Darrow's armies, but Darrow fights back with a Storm God: an ancient weapon hidden by Octavia au Lune that can create and control massive earthquakes. In the chaos, Lysander loses an eye and his companion Seraphina au Rau is killed; Ajax betrays Lysander and leaves him to die in vengeance for Lysander's favorable position with the family as a child. Darrow kills his pilot Orion, who has gone out of control and uses the Storm God to annihilate the planet. Darrow's forces narrowly manage to win the battle by seizing control of Mercury's center of commerce Heliopolis with the arrival of the Morning Star.

Virginia au Augustus struggles to keep her power as the Sovereign with her allies growing increasingly hostile due to her continued support for Darrow's agenda. She suspects treachery from her allies in the Forum, especially Publius cu Caraval. Having managed to locate Sevro au Barca, Virginia kidnaps the Duke of Hands and attempts to pry information on The Syndicate's Queen and the location of their missing children. The Duke of Hands is subsequently mind-wiped. On the day where Virginia is to give a speech to the Solar Republic giving one last plea of help to free Darrow, Sevro tracks down The Syndicate Queen on Earth. Virginia is betrayed when her closest allies are all poisoned and a mob kills her friend Daxo au Telemanus before kidnapping her. The Syndicate Queen arrives and is revealed to be Lilath au Faran, who has gave birth to a clone of Virginia's deceased brother Adrius au Augustus, better known as The Jackal. Virigina manages to sow confusion in the 10-year-old Adrius and escapes, but is forced to leave Sevro and several Howlers behind with Lilath.

Ephraim ti Horn, Pax au Augustus, and Electra au Barca are kidnapped by the Obsidians led by Sefi Volarus. Sefi hopes to lead the Obsidians into a new age and secure their freedom across the galaxy. They start by taking over several areas of Mars including Cimmeria. Sefi reveals to Ephraim that Volga, his former apprentice, is the last surviving daughter of Ragnar Volarus and is the heir to the Obsidian throne. Ephraim, feeling he has been reformed from his ways as a thief, refuses to help Sefi. In Olympia, Ephraim encounters a giant Obsidian named Volsung Fá, the ancient leader of a pirate tribe called the Ascomanni. When Sefi does not believe him, Ephraim and the children escape.

Lyria of Lagalos and Volga are imprisoned by Victra au Barca, but manage to break free of their captivity when Fá's Ascomanni lay siege to their ship. They flee to Mars, where they discover that Victra has also survived and where Lyria gets a parasitical power called The Figment from its previous owner Fig. Victra gives birth to a son, Ulysses. They are betrayed by the Red Hand, who kills Ulysses and kidnaps Victra and Volga. Lyria infiltrates a Red Hand slave trafficking ring and with the help of other girls kill their captors. Lyria rescues Victra and Volga, and they kill the Red Hand leader Harmony. Ephraim arrives on Mars after hearing a distress call from Lyria and is able to subdue the remaining Red Hand forces. After tearfully reuniting with Volga, Ephraim returns to Olympia to once again ask for Sefi's help; Fá arrives and claims that he is Sefi and Ragnar's father. After killing Sefi and those loyal to her, Fá reveals that he intends to find and indoctrinate Volga. Ephraim attempts to kill Fá with explosives but Fá survives and eats Ephraim's heart.

On Mercury, Lysander makes a deal with Atlas that involves the infiltration of Darrow's legions in Heliopolis. With the aid of a master maker named Glirastes, Lysander uses a massive widescale EMP charge to subdue all electronics in the area including the Morning Star. Darrow arrives to confront Lysander but finds his army overwhelmed when Lysander's army fights back atop a legion of thousands of horses. Darrow and the surviving members of his army narrowly escape with the arrival of Cassius au Bellona, who had been kept alive by the Rau family and managed to escape to Kavax.

In order to secure a Society-led future Lysander is forced into an engagement to Atalantia, who he previously discovered from the late Kalindora au San (The Love Knight) to have to arranged his parents' deaths. Virginia and Victra reunite with Pax and Electra. Lyria sets off to discover the secrets of the parasite in her brain while Volga leaves to confront Fá. Lysander makes a deal with Apollonius au Valii-Rath, the Minotaur, to lay siege to Mars.
