So I started reading the Red Rising Series about two weeks ago. Naturally, I burned through the first 3 books in that time because they're great. I was lucky enough to get free digital copies from my library. Now I'm anxiously awaiting Iron Gold (I'm number 11 on the waitlist right now). Judging by how quickly these lines typically move, it'll probably be at least a month until I get my copy.

However, I can get the audiobook for free now. I am generally a fan of audiobooks for things like historical biographies, political books, etc. but I don't typically do it for fiction.

My question is whether you'd suggest waiting for the written book, or listen to the audiobook?

IB4 just buy it.
I have plenty of free books to read so I can't justify paying, so that's not an option.

TIA

I'm still on my re-listening of the first trilogy so I can't speak directly to Iron Gold, but I can say that Tim Gerard Reynolds (narrator) is one of the big reasons why this is one of my favorite recent series that I've read.

From what I've seen Iron Gold has multiple POVs and I believe there may be multiple narrators. But with how good the first three audiobooks have been I don't see how Iron Gold won't be just as good in production quality.

So I say go for it.

There are 4 POVs and all are told in first person. I don't know if that changes anything in regards to getting the audio book or not, but I thought I would clarify. I'm about 150 pages into my Kindle version.

The 4 POVs and different narrators are awesome. The female POV narrator was particularly good, as there was just something about her Irish lilt that conveyed the desperation her character experienced.
