When heroic people do stupid things, and red herrings predominate the plot. I like the bones of the story, but the whole goreydamned thing reads like an old 30s serial with dire cliffhangers at the end of every third chapter. It got old fast. The 518 page story should have been 300. In any case, it did bring the story of Darrow of Lykos to a putative end in the trilogy until book 4, Red Rising: The Search for More Money was published. I'll stop at the end of the trilogy, thank you very much.
