  • Had to buy Red rising now that I read your comment, never heard about it. I recently read Hyperion as well and what made me suffer through the book was all the long ass descriptions of everything. The world is amazing and the story, but I’ll wait a while before I read the others.

    Children of Time is amazing! I’ve read Children of Ruin, the second book which is equally as great and just started on the third one. If you haven’t read it, then check out Three Body Problem. I found it better than Hyperion, although very dystopian and kinda sad. Good read though. Thanks for the recommendation.














  • Yeah. It’s crazy. But he really set up their story in a way that made me root for and feel for them. Cast unwillingly into this epic drama of species survival, it’s quite interesting. Also the story of the Gilgamesh was incredible. If you haven’t read the second book I really recommend it, I’m almost finished with it now and it’s definitely a page turner.

    Everything is linked in a way that really makes sense and there are some really cool twists that builds upon the previous book as I mentioned.

    If you have any recommendations of similar books or authors I’d really like to know!
