I enjoyed this graphic novel, but maybe not as much as the first one.

 I liked seeing the character development in Fitchner and I overall enjoyed the storyline and found it interesting to see how the sons of ares originated, it’s was a nice paced graphic novel and was easy to understand. And of course who doesn’t love seeing baby Sevro.

'Red Rising: Sons of Ares, Vol. 2: Wrath' by Pierce Brown and Rik Hoskin with art by Eli Powell is a graphic novel continues the story of Ares in this prequel series from the Red Rising novel series.

Ares is out for revenge on the society that wronged him and killed the love of his life. This time around he is blackmailed into working for Quicksilver, Arturius is out to get him, and his son Sevro is in danger.

The story expands on the first one, but I liked the nature of the first book a bit better because I felt like the story flowed a bit better. The art is still not my preferred style with it's looser graphic style.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Dynamite Entertainment, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
