Red Rising fans have waited patiently for the seventh and final installment of the series, titled Red God, and there was some hope recently that the wait would be over. However, author Pierce Brown has come out of what he refers to as his cave to dispel some rumors.
While rumors circulated that Red One was almost complete and would be released in summer 2026, Brown had to make sure that his readers were aware that they were not true. This isn’t even a case of getting the wrong season or wrong year. Instead, he wanted to make it clear that he has no idea when his book could come out.
It’s clear from an interview with Maude Garrett that Brown is frustrated with the rumors that are circulating. Because of that frustration, he needed to share the disappointing update. Red God is nowhere near completion, and he hasn’t even told his publisher that it could be coming soon. Once he gives his own deadline, it’s pretty set in stone, and he doesn’t want to put that pressure on himself just yet.
This is an epic 225,000 word novel that’s to come, and it needs to complete the series. However, Brown notes that it’s not the pressure of the ending that he’s struggling with. The novel just isn’t speaking to him like others have, and he needs to find the soul of it before he can really commit to finalizing everything.
Wrapping up the storylines is also important, which Brown does note, but it’s also the fact that this is the end. He knew that this would be a seven-book series with Darrow, and once it comes to an end, his time with Darrow comes to an end. This is a character he has known longer than most of his friends, and it’s fair to say that it’s not easy for him.
Where the ‘Red God’ Rumors Started
During the interview, Brown went into why so many people have speculated that the Red Rising series novel will be out in the summer. It came from an older interview, where he hoped that it would be ready by summer 2026.
He does understand the fear of the novel never being released. Game of Thrones and Outlander fans have all expressed their own fears of not getting the final installments of the epic series. However, Brown notes that he is working hard, and he only came out of his cave to update fans rather than leaving everyone wondering and hoping.
He does have around 1,000 pages written already, so it's not like he isn't doing the work. The end will arrive when it arrives, and it’s definitely not going to be this summer.
