There’s a real version of Ricken’s book from Severance, and you can download it for free now
InSeverance, Mark’s brother-in-law, Ricken, is unknowingly something of a deity for theInnies, with his self-help book becoming famous in the Lumon building.
Mostly, the majority of appreciation for Ricken’s revolutionary book comes fromDylan, who sees the author as something of a hero of his after the book falls into his hands. In reality, Ricken isn’t quite as big of a figure in the outside world.
To Mark, he’s simply his oafish brother-in-law, and is tolerated at best. There, his book isn’t a manifesto for readers, but rather Ricken’s forgettable fifth book.
However, for those looking to seek a little guidance from Dr. Ricken Lazlo Hale (PhD), you’re able to get a free download of eight full chapters right now.
