The end is nigh. It has been nearly two hundred years since Hadrian
Marlowe assaulted the person of the Emperor and walked away from
war. From his Empire. His duty. From the will and service of the
eldritch being known only as the Quiet. The galaxy lies in the grip
of a terrible plague, and worse, the Cielcin have overrun the
realms of men. A messenger has come to Jadd, bearing a summons from
the Sollan Emperor for the one-time hero. A summons, a pardon, and
a plea. HAPSIS, the Emperor’s secret first-contact intelligence
organization, has located one of the dreadful Watchers, the
immense, powerful beings worshipped by the Pale Cielcin. Called out
of retirement and exile, the old hero—accompanied by his
daughter, Cassandra—must race across the galaxy and against time
to accomplish one last, impossible task: To kill a god. Praise for
the Sun Eater series: 'Space opera fans will savor the rich details
of Ruocchio’s far-future debut, which sets the scene for a
complicated series.... Readers who like a slow-building story with
a strong character focus will find everything they’re looking for
in this series opener.' Publishers Weekly 'With the scope of Dune
and a confessional, first-person voice that puts us into the mind
of a possible madman, this is space opera at its most riveting and
grandiose.' B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Review
