I liked him a lot for his quiet, morbid ways in the first two, but felt he became a bit of a pompous loudmouth in the last one and preferred when he wasn't so love-struck :). I also felt that him challenging Darrow for alpha-male over his wolfpack was a bit meh. I would prefer if his gang was only loyal to Sevro, but Sevro was always loyal to Darrow rather than their weird power struggle in the middle of the third book.

Unless book 6 wraps up like book 3, I’m afraid I’m going to hate the whole second era. Are the books good? Yeah, totally 5 stars, but they hurt my feelings 😭. The Red Rising series is easily my second favorite series of all time after the Stormlight Archive- and I’ve read A LOT of books, so that’s saying something.

I really enjoyed the first book, but I was NOT prepared for the second and third ones. Holy stinkin' crap balls, I LOVED this trilogy!!!!!! I laughed, I cried, and even over a year after finishing it, it still sticks with me. I read a LOT, so I don't keep many books after finishing them or else I would be on my third or fourth storage unit by now, but this trilogy was a keeper. I'm so glad you stuck with it after the first book, and thrilled that you enjoyed it as much as I did! Great review, and lovely covers by Juniper. ❤️

My favourite character by far (in probably all of the books I’ve read) is Darrow. He grows so much, and he does what’s necessary. He isn’t afraid of violence or killing and he’s willing to sacrifice the people he loves for the greater good (I hate characters that sacrifice the entire fate of the world for a random character I don’t care about) and he’s just....Darrow is perfection. But in the next trilogy...oh my god will your heart break. It’s like the older brother of the Red Rising trilogy. It’s more political, but IT HURTS SO MUCH. I actually didn’t used to like Mustang, but then I saw her POV in the second trilogy and I absolutely adore her now.

I love how the first series sets up Darrow as the legendary epic hero, seeing his ascension to that (nearly) Messiah level role. And then the following books do their best to tear Darrow down back to his mortal roots. He's still impressive and dangerous, but you no longer feel like he's this walking deity who can just smite his foes with his wrath. You see the broken man who never really figured out how to put down the sword and accept peace, and it calls into question many of the things you like about these characters.

I hope that it's an understood factor though, that Juniper sending you the covers "personally" might result in conflicting motivations from not wanting to burn any bridges. In terms of integrity and since a coupon code is included, it might be worth acknowledging the thin line between review/unboxing/advertisement.

I just finished this series in the last few months. It was so good. Red Rising was his first book he ever wrote, which is insane. His writing gets better as the series continues but that first book is pretty dang good for a first attempt. Sevro's storyline on forgiveness got me hard in the feels. I was listening to that part while on a run and I had a little bit of a hard time running while crying. I am surprised you didn't mention some of the BRUTAL stuff Darrow does in this book. Speaking of the Moon Lord's of Jupiter....

I actually don’t think this is correct. I believe he wrote 7 or 8 books (not sure exactly but several) before being published. I remember a conversation Pierce had with VE Schwab where he talked about his 100’s or rejections and the fact that he once wrote a unicorn book he considered “terrible”.

This is truly one of my all time favorite series. Glad to see you enjoyed it as much as I did. Hope you're ready for another Rollercoaster with Iron Gold. Scary that there is multiple perspectives.

Pierce Brown is an extreme pantser, he has zero outline. V.E. Schwab did an interview with him and was amazed how insane his method it.

Daniel is like the guy who does detail maps of a new area. Cool. I also watch Becky M. She has exactly the same taste as Daniel, but more science fiction, except she like a scoot in new area. No detailed maps, but she point out where were to look for the gold.

The praise of the prose hooked me man. Also an interesting series to look at would be The Book of the New Sun series if you haven’t already.

I love the sound effects Daniel. Your channel is growing so much and the creativity you put into it is a big factor of that. The disheveled goblin hoard shall rise
