Red rising for scifi

>Iron Gold
You should have stopped with the original trilogy. Iron gold shits the bed.

The first chapter or two is utter shit. The memer who shilled it to me from this general made me promise him to read on. I nearly dropped it, I couldn't take the young adult twilight divergence hunger games finger in the air shit. But it gets so much better. You have to know if you're willing to suffer through some hardship to get a happy ending.

Red rising is not a YA.

This is the last one.

>tfw Red Rising has 10 of those listed
I guess it really is YA. But how all the rape, cannibalism, incest, gay, and torture passed the quality board is beyond me.

>tfw no obsidian gf to cuddle with
It hurts lads

Iron Gold was shit. Fuck pierce

How's the gri this time round? Any cannibalism? Any more of that hand on chest/finger in air shit like the first book?

Are you the same person who praised age of myth and age of swords?
I must understand when you say the PC pandering was "that bad".

Red rising

Red Rising.
You have to read a gud way in. The start is horrendous and reads like some hunger games divergent shit. Just read till he leaves the tunnels. You have to promise us that you will do so.

The other books are GRI APPROVED.
Gay, rape, and incest. In single doses and all 3 at the same time.

Welcome brother. New book when?
Also the starting is like hunger games. It made me physically ill to read through that finger in the air / hand on the chest BS at the beginning. But the anon that shilled it said to read past that. Once Darrow dies it becomes a rollercoaster ride going straight up to the ionosphere with rockets attached

>>9732506
Brother. Are you awaiting the new book?

>he thinks people waste time making memes for shit books
It good. But you have to put up with the YAesque opening, with the finger in the air/hand on chest BS. When the hanging passes it's all up from there. You will call in sick to work to finish it(I did).
