**I received an electronic ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for honest review.**

The Red Rising Saga has been one of my most favorite series in recent years, and I am not disappointed with the prequel graphic novel series, Red Rising Sons of Ares.

This is difficult to discuss without spoilers, but I will say that I love seeing Pierce Brown’s storytelling in a visual format. My one critique for the artwork would be that I wish the facial expressions were more clear and realistic than are represented by this art style. I very much enjoy the use of color and the use of the art style in building the world.

I will absolutely pick up any future works in this series, and recommend any fans of Red Rising pick up this welcome expansion to the universe.
