Pierce Brown: Golden Son (AudiobookFormat) 5 stars

I like how the system depicted here doesn't treat anyone fairly. Not even the golds, the rulers. Because the system has no use for one that rules through consent; Those that rise because others acknowledge their near-divine wisdom and compassion are fed to the meat grinder first. A slave society lives in mortal fear of an uprising. Therefore each acceptable ruler must be able and willing to put one down with extreme prejudice.
