Red Rising by Pierce Brown

5.0

Honestly, I'm surprised by the grip this book had on me. I enjoy sci-fi however I tend to watch more of it than I do read. This sat on my TBR for far too long. I thought it might be hard to follow, but it wasn't at all. The author paints a pretty vivid picture without being wordy. The character development is great. They playful banter of the fellas had me laughing at times, it was a nice addition.

If what I'm hearing is true, and this is ONLY the setup for the rest of the series, I don't know if I'm ready for Golden Son because this was FIVE fantastic freaking stars.
