A Goodreads user asked this question about Morning Star (Red Rising Saga, #3):

Don't take this the wrong way, it's just a question. Red Rising is an "Over hyped" book I avoid because I have been a victim of hype several times. Not only that, but from other reviewers, Darrow is a bit of a Gary-Stu. He's perfect. While the premise for the trilogy is interesting, I am very apprehensive about reading it. Should I? Or do I just not read it?

I found the first book good. Darrow is not a Gary-Stu and shoots himself in the foot multiple times. Definitely worth a read(less)
