Description: Praise for the Sun Eater series " Empire of Silence is epic science fiction at its most genuinely epic . Ruocchio has made something fascinating here, and I can't wait to see what he does next." --James S.A. Corey, New York Times -bestselling author of The Expanse novels "Christopher Ruocchio's Empire of Silence is epic-scale space opera in the tradition of Iain M. Banks and Frank Herbert's Dune , without being a clone of either of them. His is a welcome new voice in science fiction." --Eric Flint, author of the bestselling 1632 series " Empire of Silence has the sweep and political complexity of Dune (though no sandworms). It builds to a blazing climax, followed by a satisfying conclusion. I recommend the book." --David Drake, bestselling author of the RCN Series " Empire of Silence is a rich tapestry of future history and worldbuilding , a galactic-sized story of a hero, a tyrant, but portrayed as a man." --Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times -bestselling author of The Dark Between the Stars " Empire of Silence packs in action and erudition in equal measure . This is a gripping first installment in a space opera that delivers both high-adrenaline thrills and hard-earned wisdom about the human spirit." --D.J. Butler, author of Witchy Eye "A richly imagined epic, briskly and vividly told ." --R.M. Meluch, author of the Tour of the Merrimack series " A craftsman of rare ability , Christopher Ruocchio lures you into a future filled with danger, action, irony, vaulting prose, and a few, precious dollops of hope." --David Brin, author of Earth and The Postman "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 "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 "Although stretched across a vast array of planets, the story line is often more focused on the intimate than on the expanse, giving it a wonderful emotional punch. This wow book is a must for fans of Pierce Brown and Patrick Rothfuss ." -- Library Journal (starred review)
