    About LIGHT BRINGER
    The Reaper is a legend, more myth than man: the savior of worlds, the leader of the Rising, the breaker of chains.
    But the Reaper is also Darrow, born of the red soil of Mars: a husband, a father, a friend.
    Marooned far from home after a devastating defeat on the battlefields of Mercury, Darrow longs to return to his wife and sovereign, Virginia, to defend Mars from its bloodthirsty would-be conqueror Lysander.
    Lysander longs to destroy the Rising and restore the supremacy of Gold, and will raze the worlds to realize his ambitions.
    The worlds once needed the Reaper. But now they need Darrow, and Darrow needs the people he loves-Virginia, Cassius, Sevro-in order to defend the Republic.
    So begins Darrow’s long voyage home, an interplanetary adventure where old friends will reunite, new alliances will be forged, and rivals will clash on the battlefield.
    Because Eo’s dream is still alive-and after the dark age will come a new age: of light, of victory, of hope.
    Don’t miss any of Pierce Brown’s Red Rising Saga:
    RED RISING • GOLDEN SON • MORNING STAR • IRON GOLD • DARK AGE • LIGHT BRINGER

    Pierce needs to do this for Light Bringer before the release of Red God! 😂

    I implemented a new rule for reading series of any genre. Do t start until all books are written and available to purchase. I’m tired of trying to remember shit

    Red Rising books are very good indeed, but Pierce needs to study up on physics and the military some. Some of his verbiage and prose shows a lack of understanding of both. Two examples......he never attempts to rationalize the acceleration experienced by humans fired out of spit tubes (flesh would be ripped from bones and the floating brain within the skull would liquefy) or how Mercury, or the Moon for that matter, could ever be terraformed with a dense atmosphere. He calls weapons magazines "clips", a classic error that immediately exposes someone's lack of knowledge of the military or weapons. Attention to details like these are what separate masterful science and military fiction from the merely excellent. ;-) I believe this also exposes a strong desire create a Hollywood-ready book series destined for TV, where 90% of viewers are less critical or simply younger and don't give a hoot.

      @RM-gc8lx I am not disagreeing merely stating that Pierce should go through the trouble of explaining what you just did. The great science fiction writers would. The novels have excellent character development but Brown focusses more on the fiction than the science. Which tells me he is writing the books with a screenplay in mind. If he knew more about science and engineering, and he states gravity can be manipulated, he would be able to extrapolate better.

      As a phycisist, I believe that might be plausible to think that in centuries they were able to change the conditions of the planets. When it comes to acceleration, perhaps the armors they are wearing are prepared for it. However, the acceleration they reach is not that big (Velocity reached is tho). I don't know about military vocabulary, not even in my native language, so I cant justify that part. (Although I suppose you could say that the names might have changed slightly with time).

      So the Clip and Mag thing is a but jarring, but otherwise I don't think these are too bad. Red Rising is more space opera than science fiction anyway. It isn't about the science. Like Star Wars. In that Star Destroyers fall down in zero g, earth-like planets all have just one biome, there is sound in vacuum, etc.. and yet Star Wars is still awsome.
      And yeah, you can poke holes in RR science all day long, starting with Helium-3, on which the entire premise of terrafroming is built, an element that by definition is bogus, scince having 1 proton is what makes helium helium, 3 would just be Litihium.
      But it dosen't matter as long as the story is awsome.

      @@hunacean Helium-3 is definitely not bogus, it's a stable isotope with 2 protons and 1 neutron, and it's thought to be a desirable future energy source because nuclear fusion of 3He is a neutronic, it doesn't release dangerous radiation. The presence of 3He under the surface of Mars IS bogus, but the element itself and its use as fuel is completely believable. Also, 3He isn't primarily used in terraformation, it's used as fuel (which the terraforming machines also use).
      Also clips/magazines is a bit redundant as language evolves and the terms are often used interchangably in spite of the technical definitions. That's equivalent to moaning about the fact they spell Demokracy with a k.
