Dynamite has announced the hotly anticipated third and final book in the Red Rising: Sons of Ares graphic novel series from New York Times bestselling author Pierce Brown, coming out this March.

A prequel to the smash hit Red Rising novel series, Pierce Brown’s graphic novel trilogy comes to an epic finale with Forbidden Song. The Sons of Ares saga is an indispensable cog in the grand machine of Brown’s storytelling. Volume three, Forbidden Song, is co-written by Rik Hoskin and drawn by Kewber Baal.

The last two entries had protagonist Fitchner on his heels and on the run. Initially, he was driven by love and desperation to save his wife Brynn before her execution at the hands of the Board of Quality Control. Then Fitchner went head to head with Arturius and Quicksilver, both former trusted allies. His wrath left the former dead and set back Quicksilver’s dreams of expanding exploration and human habitation to other stars. Now in Forbidden Song, Ares may not always be in control, but he has a plan…

One part Ocean’s Eleven, one part Les Misérables, Red Rising Sons of Ares: Forbidden Song sets and ignites the fuse for the rising that Darrow will inherit in the series of novels that follow this essential prequel tale. The 120-page hardcover original graphic novel is available to preorder now.

Pierce Brown’s Red Rising Sons of Ares: Forbidden Song will be released March 2023.
