The character Ricken, Mark’s brother-in-law in *Severance*, unexpectedly becomes a revered figure among the Innies, thanks to the popularity of his self-help book within the Lumon building. This book, which has gained a cult following, particularly captivates Dylan, who sees Ricken as a personal hero after discovering his work. However, outside the confines of the fictional world, Ricken does not enjoy the same level of acclaim.
To Mark, he is just his clumsy brother-in-law, whose writing career is less impressive; to him, Ricken’s book is merely his fifth, easily forgotten publication. Nonetheless, fans of the show can access valuable insights from Dr. Ricken Lazlo Hale, PhD, through a free download of eight chapters from his book.
