Summary
Centuries after the Conquering, the solar system has completely fallen under the dominion of the Gold and their authoritarian Society. Heroes rise and fall, attempting to contest the cruel hierarchy, yet still the monolith reigns supreme. Yet, for the first time in a long time, there is a glimmer of hope for the rebel forces: Red is Rising. Guerilla warfare and intricate plots attempt to undermine the ironclad grip of the oppressors. Throughout the worlds, countless people claw for a freedom they have never had.
But there is still one man that remembers the halcyon days of mankind's glory. A man that struggled against the Conquering, and came closer than anyone since to triumphing over the Society. Buried deep below the surface of the moon, locked in a cryogenic sleep, John Merrywater still lives.
He hasn't fallen yet.

Summary
Two hundred years after Mars was first colonized, Luna has become a center of commerce of the Solar System. She stretches against the reins of the American Empire and China, and whispers of freedom creep across her mottled face.
Desperate to keep the peace, negotiators work out contracts between the United Nations and Luna. All seems well on the surface, but deep down, the young bioengineered humans are fuming. Bubbling. They have withstood hundreds of years of abuse, and they will not take much more.On Earth, another fight plays out. Presidential candidate John Merrywater battles Nigerian smear campaigns and Indian hacks as he attempts to maintain the integrity of an election he knows he needs to win. As a current Naval Space Officer, he senses danger on Luna, and sitting president Miller won't let him act. As the election draws nearer, Merrywater's desperation grows.
What happens when gold stops bending?
