Red Rising is a 2014 dystopian science fiction novel by American author Pierce Brown, and the first book and eponym of a series. The novel, set in the future on Mars, follows lowborn miner Darrow as he infiltrates the ranks of the elite Golds. Red Rising has received generally positive reviews. In 2014, Universal Pictures secured the rights for a film adaptation, but the project was eventually scrapped. Brown began developing Red Rising as a television series in 2018, and later announced that the potential series had a director and a showrunner with either Netflix, Apple TV+, Disney+, Amazon Prime or HBO interested in adapting the series as of September 2021. A six-issue prequel comic book series, Red Rising: Sons of Ares, was published in 2017.

      I’ve started balancing reading one fiction and one non fiction book concurrently. I find it’s different kind of mental activity that they don’t tend to interfere with one another, but of course there’s also the matter of actually having the time. :)

        Yep, that’s what I did until I fell behind on Capital, trying to catch back up. About 2/3rds into volume 2 right now, when the reading group just started volume 3. Once I get all caught up I’ll go back to balancing fiction and theory, I agree, it’s really helpful!

          Yeah, Capital is a difficult read I find. It’s very dense and takes a lot of mental energy to unpack.

            Yea, and volume 2 even moreso than 1, as it has less fun metaphor and is more dry.
