Red Rising - The Definitive Modern Sci-Fi

Welcome to the Rising!

This is a spoiler-free introduction to the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown. This is an action-heavy and just plain cool sci-fi, that still has incredibly deep themes, philosophy, and insight into humanity and the future.

We'll look at all 6 books, discuss some of the clever writing techniques on display, and even discuss the rise and fall of evil regimes. Hope you enjoy!
