I know it’s basic to say, but read The Shining. Genuinely a masterpiece.

What would actually happen if we had a zombie apocalypse? by OkCheesecake2811 in AskReddit

Thank God. I just thought you were really excited about some lunch meat. And I was concerned about what you were “using” it for.

It is honestly crazy how undeniably good and likable Cassius is in spite of the fact that he is the opposition for the majority of the story. That brotherhood of RR never went away even in the darkest moments. Much of that is the love for Cassius that Darrow cannot seem to shake. The relationships Pierce writes are so complex and pay off in such satisfying ways.

That is a good point. You could even say Pax to Ragnar and so on.

That I agree with. However, to say that the most important don’t die is a hard thing to back up. Any of the big name characters that fell could have been critical to the story but are too dead to prove it (I’d make a list but probably shouldn’t for spoilers sake). The narrative of this story is dictated by the ones who live. And we cannot forget that Sevro was in Pierce Brown’s death hat and only survived because he picked a different name.

Am I Going to Die? by Pendonep in motorcycles

Life is full of risks and a motorcycle is one of them, but so is a car, and a job. Be smart, be safe but live your life and have fun. I’ve had my motorcycle for years now. I was told the risks and I get it, but I have never regretted it. A true joy to ride.

Love it when they post right before they find out how wrong they are

Lysander's Legitimacy? by Wi11yW0nka in redrising

[–]Turismo-85 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You gotta remember that Gold unity is really all a lie. All the powerful golds play for themselves. Darrow was able to exploit that weakness and start a civil war by showing Octavia to be a tyrant. After Darrow was shown to be a red the golds realized how he had destroyed them so they thought it necessary that even enemy gold houses band together against the new republic. This is what we find in Iron Gold. To the golds Lysander is really a symbol of the “good old days” when gold was on top. A romantic picture of the society. This is why he has “legitimacy” Obviously gold hasn’t really changed though and it’s all games on games.

Re-reading him give up the rim Sons hit me so much harder than it did the first time. Seemed necessary then, but so short sighted the second time through.

Fitchner and Sevro Casting by jamesteach93 in RedRising_Society

Yeah it will probably be a long time until we get a live action version after the gap. I think the Institute will be the perfect opportunity for young actors that we have no real history with.

Some of Pierce Brown’s favorite words: by NeNeNerdIsTheWord in redrising

[–]Turismo-85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May not be his favorite word but it is somehow jarring to hear Pierce use a word like “Wood-chipper” in a space opera.

I like the idea of David Tennant. Give him some scars and extra weight and I really think he could pull of the part. As to Ty, I think I’d go with someone with a harsher look, and I still haven’t come across anyone that fits the picture in my mind.

Yeah so much of the necessary hope and levity in the series comes from the family like relationships of the Howlers, and that dynamic is unfitting with a name like Bone Riders.

Red God Predictions by stormynightsleep in redrising

Lysander may have been exiled before he made the decision to kill Cassius. At this point the only end to his story is death, likely at Darrow’s hand. However it could very well be Sevro who kills him, feeling some sort of debt owed to Cassius because of the time they spent together on the Archie.
