In this BookBites episode of Reader’s Table, we explore Red Rising by Pierce Brown—a brutal blend of dystopian sci-fi, Roman empire, and mythological storytelling. We discuss Darrow’s journey from oppressed Helldiver to Gold, the novel’s fascinating worldbuilding, and the deadly Institute that recalls The Hunger Games while forging the rulers of a future empire.
We also dive into the book’s roots in Greek and Roman history, its themes of class, identity, and rebellion, and what makes Red Rising such a compelling start to the saga.
⚠️ Contains minor spoilers up to Act II of Red Rising.
