I really liked Red Rising, and the other two books in the original trilogy. I also read the first book in the follow-up series, but found it a bit too dark for me (and I usually like dark!) I won't be bothering with the rest of them, but I might re-read the trilogy at some point.
It really took a turn to another plot I wasn't expecting at all. The beginning of the book set it up to be a revolution, I was not expecting eugenic battle royale... Whats worse, they never even addressed the original plot started with Eo, it was just sort of used as a setup for book two.
