Pierce Brown Shared An Update On Red God (And An Ominous Tease For A Scene He’s Writing)

Light Bringer came out last summer, which was months and months ago, so we’ve surely had plenty of time to recover from the events of the sixth Red Rising book… right? Ok, fine, I’m still not recovered, but that doesn’t make me any less excited for Book 7. But when is Red God‘s release date? While we don’t have the answer to that, Pierce Brown did offer up an update on the status of Red Rising Book 7 on his Instagram stories this week.

Some (Spoiler-free) Thoughts About Light Bringer

In the process of gathering and organizing my thoughts and many feelings about Light Bringer, I’ve decided to divide them between spoilers and non-spoilers. This is the non-spoiler post. And when I say non-spoiler, I mean no specific details about what happens in the book. But I am going to be talking about general impressions, so if that’s more than you want to know about the book before you read it, now’s your chance to back out!

Pierce Brown’s Red Rising: Sons Of Ares Vol. 3 Forbidden Song Graphic Novel Releases This Year

To say that my to-be-read list for 2023 is looking both exciting and a bit daunting would be an understatement, especially when I factor in my goal to reread all five Red Rising books before Book 6 — titled Light Bringer — makes its grand arrival later in the year. And now it looks like I’ll need to add a reread of the first two Sons of Ares graphic novels to my TBR list as well, as Volume 3 is expected to arrive this year.

Happy New Year, Howlers! We certainly have som exciting things to look forward to in 2023!

Red Rising Book 6 – Light Bringer Gets A New Release Date And A Cover Reveal

This week, Pierce Brown revealed the cover for Light Bringer (Red Rising Book 6). Alas, with that bit of good news, the less good news is that we’ll be waiting just a bit longer for Light Bringer to hit shelves in 2023. It is still expected to arrive next year, but rather than the original May 2023 release date, the sixth novel in the Red Rising series will be arriving on July 25th.

A Red Rising Book 6 announcement is coming, Howlers! A few months ago, Pierce Brown hinted that “announcements” were coming in July. More recently, he specified that Book 6 news was coming on July 22nd, which just so happens to be the same day the Red Rising author is set to appear at San Diego Comic-Con. In fact, based on the schedule for the event, it looks like he’ll have his very own panel at the convention. Before we get to that…
