8 Great Questions with Pierce Brown

Sci-fi author Pierce Brown, best known for his Red Rising trilogy, answers our most pressing questions.

By Abbe Wright • 4 years ago
Pierce Brown

When we ran into Red Rising trilogy author Pierce Brown at Comic-Con in San Diego, we had to ask him a few things, like what book has stuck with him since he first read it, the book(s) he would tell everyone to read and what his favorite word is. He surprised us with a few of his answers, including his favorite genre, which isn’t science fiction!

If you’re a fan of the Red Rising trilogy, or if you’re eagerly awaiting Brown’s next novel—Iron Gold, out in January 2018—watch below to get his personal reading recommendations.
