19 posts | 21 read | 6 to read
From the world of the best-selling YA series Red Rising comes a story of love and loss and rage! In the future, when mankind has spread across the stars, the hierarchy of man is dictated by the color of one's caste. The Golds rule all, but what will happen when one falls for a lowly Red? See how a forbidden love will set the course of events for the future and lead to the formation of the formidable Sons of Ares! Written by author Pierce Brown (The Red Rising Trilogy) and Rik Hoskin (Heroes of Skyrealm, Brandon Sanderson's White Sand), with art by Eli Powell (Yakuza Demon Killers, The 13th Artifact), comes the in-continuity story of revolution and Red Rising!

I loved the books in this series and I really enjoyed getting the background information of the Sons of Ares.

I think if you hadn't read the books though you would be a little confused even though this is a prequel.

I am so excited because I joined the library of a larger, neighboring town. They have way more graphic novels than our library. I can‘t wait to start Sons of Ares! I have been wanting to read it for ages but could never find it at the book store or our library.

The art is nothing to write home about but as always, the story is engaging. This volume follows Fitchner as he cares for his son Sevro (😍) at the same time he plots revenge for the murder of his wife. Complicated politics, shifting and tenuous alliances, sacrifice and every moment bringing us closer to the formation of the Sons of Ares. If you‘re a fan of Red Rising, this comic is definitely worth a look.

Today‘s #bookmail is key to making it through the wait for the next installment of Brown‘s Red Rising series. Dark Age took a long time and I‘m expecting the next one will too so I‘m excited to have more of Fitchner‘s story for a distraction.

Finished this in what amounts to a single sitting. It‘s been a while since I read the Red Rising series, so I‘m sure I missed some things, but I still really enjoyed seeing the origins of Fitchner and the Sons of Ares. Eagerly awaiting a second volume (assuming there is one)

Graphic novel prequel to the Red Rising series. Nice to get Sevro‘s origin story, and keeps me excited for the next book.

I had surgery last week and so I haven‘t been able to concentrate a lot on reading, but I started this graphic novel today and I‘m really enjoying it! #currentlyreading

BarbaraTheBibliophage Hope the recovery‘s going well. Your brain and body must need the rest. It‘s rough, but I hope you‘ll go with it. 😍 6y
ErikasMindfulShelf Hope you‘re recovering well and getting much rest. 💕 6y
Merethebookgal @BarbaraTheBibliophage @irre Thanks! It‘s my 2nd surgery to remove Endometriosis, and while the healing part is no fun, I‘m hoping for some lasting relief this time around! 6y

ErikasMindfulShelf I hope the surgery gives you the results you want and that it‘s your last! I just had reconstructive surgery last week and just like you I‘m not enjoying the healing part but I‘m happy this is the end of the road and hopefully my last surgery. 6y
Merethebookgal @irre I hope your recovery continues to go well! 6y

I love the Red Rising books and this graphic novel was a cool adventure in that world. It gives some backstory to characters. What I liked best about it was the visualization of the world I have read so much in.

Hi Litsy! Long time no see! This month has been crazy busy for me but I found some time this weekend to read this beauty. While not as good as the Red Rising books, I still enjoyed this graphic novel about Fitchner and the
beginnings of the Sons. The art style is very gritty and the character designs don't match my mental images of Fitchner and the cities but it was a nice return to the world of Red Rising.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I opened up my Book Riot email this morning to find this as the first announcement! Maybe everyone else already knew about this but it excited me. In case you didn‘t know this is going to be the Prequel to The Red Rising series!!!!! Woooohoooo!!! Way to make a girl happy!!!! Anyone else excited about this and love Red Rising. And let‘s not forget how cute Pierce Brown is!!!! Just had to mention that! 😂😂

Bookcation74 I had the same excited reaction to that email this morning too! 6y
Maike I didn‘t get the mail but I thought the comic was out already? I‘m confused 😅 (edited) 6y
TracyReadsBooks Full run of 6 issues is already out. I‘ve read and really enjoyed them. Great backstory and if you are a fan of Red Rising, you‘ll likely enjoy it. I know the bound edition of all 6 issues together is out soon so maybe the email is referring to that. 6y

Issue #6 isn't in the database yet, but it was released this week. I'm sad that it's the last one. I hope Pierce will consider doing more of the history of the Sons of Ares before Red Rising. #1FanGirl (hashtag for @Andrew65 ) #howler4life #AresSendsHisRegards

Others have already tagged the original trilogy, so I thought I'd tag the comics for #lifeonmars. You can never have too much #redrising. #howlers

Issue #4 is out today, but not in the Litsy database. Really loving the additional backstory detail for the Sons of Ares. Still not a fan of the artwork. It's just not visually appealing to me, but the story brings me back for more. Issue #5 out next month!
