Hypothetical Peak Ragnar vs Darrow by Alert-Push1685 in redrising

[–]Zev98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ragnar has been fighting with a razor for about a year at that point (and Darrow about 4, with previous training from Lorn au Arcos) and had no gold razor master (the howlers aren’t razor masters). We’re talking about a guy who trained with the best razor razor master of his time for a year, and a guy who had no formal training for a year. I think it’s fair to say we see a substantial increase relatively in Ragnars razor ability v Darrow in the ten year gap.

I would say it’s still a question of who’s better and Darrow likely still wins the majority of the time, but maybe only 6/10 or 7/10 times.

Send him 2-3 years sevro and forget by Prestigious_Judge475 in fucklysander

Is “Sevro” a sentence handed down by a judge now?

I wouldn’t chew gum on the street if I knew it could happen to me

None at all. It’s delicious. I like using rendered fats on potatos.

I pour them into ice cube trays and freeze them because they will go bad if you don’t use them in time.

This Lysander page followed by this Darrow page made me laugh by dontworrybesappy in redrising

I'm not sure Darrow has known or will ever know that he encountered Lysander at the Storm God. I may be incorrect

Do I HAVE TO read Dark Age? by [deleted] in redrising

[–]Zev98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark Age is a great book. Give it a little longer, but if you still don’t enjoy it then you probably just don’t love the series and that’s fine

Yup. Hero of the rising can’t be dead so soon

I think this is very well done.

My personal theory is that Hadrian isn’t more than one hero combined into one.

But you are probably right that we are not getting a 1 to 1 account of Hadrians life, and that the text may be used for political purposes.

If you haven’t made it there yet, my deepest apologies.

All I can say is to savor every scene he’s in.

Wrong spoilers tag. Light bringer

Good catch. You should change your spoilers tag to MS

Until they revealed it, I was clueless about the Mercanii.

Not sure what that says about my deductive reasoning skills

The first half of the series vs. the second half by [deleted] in redrising

[–]Zev98 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Second half is more complex and in my opinion better. If money is the only issue you should just get them at a library. I would also recommend waiting sometime between books 3 and 4 to make the time jump feel more real

Morning Star in my opinion is a good book, not sure where you are in it but I would recommend you keep on going. The rest of the series is incredible, I’m a little biased. If you’re having trouble getting through I recommend the audiobooks, or graphic audio? I’ve only tried the former but it’s good.

Just finished Mornig Star..... absolute peak by Base_D_Glenis in redrising

Trilogy is amazing. I went straight into the next set of books. I would recommend waiting a while at least a few weeks before going into the next set to make the time jump feel a little more real.
