Red Rising is an extraordinary story! I went in blind and I am not a dystopian sci-fi girly but Pierce Brown makes it so easy to understand complex sciency things! The story is from Darrow’s perspective, a Red (the lowest on the totem pole) whose have been wronged and he needs to fight with the enemies (the high colours) strategically to make the worlds a better place. There is always so much happening that I could not put it down and. High chance this will become my all time favourite series cause never have I ever had my heart beat out of my chest from reading a book.
