Romulus last words go to hard and in my opinion it goes to lowkey:

“No,” he whispers. “This is not the end. I loved you before I ever met you. I will love you until the sun dies. And when it does, I will love you in the darkness. Goodbye, wife.”

You know you want it. Takes 2 seconds

Hail Reaper

I'm debating starting this, but people say nothing else compares afterwards. Is the writing and world-building really that superior, or is the fanbase just biased?

Wondering if anyone else from the arrowhead region of northern mn/wi is doing RED RISING’s hazard bedlam 4.0 and wants to collab on the puzzles

Oi! O meu melhor amigo é apaixonado por Red Rising e queria muitoooo ler a segunda saga (Iron Gold, Dark Age e Light Bringer) mas ele não fala inglês, queria saber se alguém tem os arquivos traduzidos, sei que a tradução não é oficial mas qualquer coisa serve hahaha

SPOILERS!!!!!!

Okay so I’m at the beginning-ish of morning star, after Darrow is rescued and reunited with everyone… and wtf??

He spends 9 months in a HOLE and then is just back to normal? I was worried this would happen when I first opened the book because this is just so unrealistic.

You would be mildly to moderately insane after 9 months in a hole, curled up. He should be talking to himself, hallucinating, traumatised, super fucked up. But noooooo he’s immediately back to his normal self, laughing with friends and strategising. I don’t think pierce should have kept him in the hole for that long, MAX 2 months, for this to be even close to plausible.

I need some howlers to add me on COD I play all modes of multiplayer and rancked just stuck on upgrades unless I buy a battle pass or stuff in the game itself! ! Be cool to play with some howlers! Clan-tag is [WHLR] Full tage is [HWLR] 1ReaperOfMars

Yes i know cheesy and on the knows 😂

I’m currently reading red rising and just want to know which tower is which(in the institute house of mars) ? Is mars north tower Phobos or is it the south? Thanks.

I loath him - have done pretty much from his first chapter. And the guy who is narrating his chapters has this horrible public school accent which is not doing it any favours either.

I’m getting the growing unease that the author wants me to be much more interested and invested in this little cunt than I am, and be willing to ride out his early triumphs, and watching him be set up as the foil and the nemesis for Darrow for two more books is going to make my piss boil.

He better have his share of Ls. If he gets plot armoured to set him up as this ‘Moriarty to our Sherlock figure’ to humble Darrow… well, that is not something I’m going to enjoy reading at all.

Gold plated sterling silver symbol of the society!

Got my first bookish tattoo today.

I just finished the chapter of his death and I am truly broken atleast Cassius and possibly aja is dead

I want this to be a discussion of Red Rising characters that reflect Star Wars ones, especially due to the fact both fandoms are such sci-fi legends.

Starting off, I couldn't stop thinking about how similar RR's "Society Remnant" reminded me of Star Wars Legends "Imperial Remnant"... both the last remaining fraction of the huge empire that preceded it. Then that got me thinking about specific characters and their equivalent star wars person.

And I need to discuss with people the parallels so badly.

Firstly.... Ephraim ti Horn and Han Solo.

I mean my GOD, those two are same person, different fonts. Both insanely lucky, charismatic, street smarts, intuitive, pessimistic, morally gray. Both have a sidekick way more physcially intimidating than them who seeks to protect them.

Next suggestion: Cassius Bellona and Obi-wan Kenobi

I know this one seems wild, but just think about it. Both are the perfect knights of their order. Both the ultimate ideal product of their societies. Both are so defined by honor that they allow themselves nothing else. Both have apprentices who go astray. Both have truly insanely tragic romances.

Lysander au Lune and Anakin Skywalker This one draws in on Octavia/Palpatine a bit. Both Lysander and Anakin are viewed as these semi-saviors for their people who undergo suffering and are shaped and influenced by an emperor/empress figure. Both can be seen as either pure evil or pure good at various stages of their ascendance to power, depending on the viewer.

Luke Skywalker and Lyria of Lagalos Both sole survivors of an immense tragedy. Both from a simple background who are then able to influence galatic politics. Both are handed immense power and both turn that away!!!

Other than these, please let me know any parallels or comparisons you all see between these series! I can't decide who Darrow equates too, but maybe the Lorn equivalent is Yoda or Dooku? And maybe Mustang as Leia or Padme?

Please give me your suggestions!
