Pierce Browns Red Rising: Sons of Ares Vol. 3: Forbidden Song | 
pickThe art style isn‘t my favorite, but I love that the dialogue boxes for all of the characters are the same color as the character (i.e, Fitchner‘s speech is gold, Ryanna is red, etc). It‘s the little details that make this prequel to the Red Rising series truly special. I have loved getting Ares backstory, and it reinforces the fact that I am not emotionally ready for Light Bringer. 😭 Per aspera ad astra Howlers. 🐺
pickLike his books, Brown‘s story brings the same urgency, the same tension ratcheting up with each page, the same sense of unavoidable consequences for the choices made, & the emotional toll it all takes to this comic. It‘s an entertaining read—with a fantastic, inevitable ending—that whets your appetite for the larger series and, of course, makes the wait for Light Bringer feel just a little bit longer. A good read for Howlers & fans of the series.
Ordered myself a little something to tide me over until Light Bringer releases in July. 😍 #bookmail
