Review of the book "Red Rising" by Pierce Brown

Image
Red Rising is the first book in a series of the same name. It is an epic Science Fiction Fantasy book that is hard to put down. In this future all people are part of a caste society where your color presetermines your destiny. The problem is that the main character's color has been led to believe that they were working away to make Mars habitable for humanity. Mining below the surface for generations. It turns out it was already finished long ago. This leads to a massive uprising and an involved plot that is well thought out. I looked forward to the next book as soon as I finished this one. I recommend this series highly. The first 4 books are on RB digital so enjoy. By Rick Vetsch OKelly Memorial Library

DVD "THE TRIAL" ( and book by Robert Whitlow ) starring Mathew Modine This movie sets a pace that is driven by the determination of a lawyer whose life has been upended by a tragedy in his life where he lost his wife and sons in an auto accident while he was driving. Soon thereafter he is approached to work on a case as a defense attorney. He is defending a man accused of murdering his true love by drugging her and then killing her, protecting himself by drugging himself as a coverup. The opposing attorney is as scrupulous as they come. The viewer begins to wonder if the defendant is innocent or is he guilty. I was pulled into the movie immediately, and now I want to read the book to get all the details not divulged in the movie! This was a good one that I recommend. by S.M OKelly Memorial Library Associate
