Empire of Silence (Sun Eater): The Sun Eater: Book One: 1

“”Epic science fiction at its most genuinely epic .”” –James S.A. Corey, New York Times -bestselling author of The Expanse novels “”This wow book is a must for fans of Pierce Brown and Patrick Rothfuss.”” –Library Journal (starred) Hadrian Marlowe, a man revered as a hero and despised as a murderer, chronicles his tale in the galaxy-spanning debut of the Sun Eater series, merging the best of space opera and epic fantasy. It was not his war. The galaxy remembers him as a hero: the man who burned every last alien Cielcin from the sky. They remember him as a monster: the devil who destroyed a sun, casually annihilating four billion human lives–even the Emperor himself–against Imperial orders. But Hadrian was not a hero. He was not a monster. He was not even a soldier. On the wrong planet, at the right time, for the best reasons, Hadrian Marlowe starts down a path that can only end in fire. He flees his father and a future as a torturer only to be left stranded on a strange, backwater world. Forced to fight as a gladiator and navigate the intrigues of a foreign planetary court, Hadrian must fight a war he did not start, for an Empire he does not love, against an enemy he will never understand. —- ISBN: 9780756413002 | ISBN10: 0756413001 | ISBN-13: 978-0756413002
