PRAISE FOR THE SUN EATER SERIES:'Space opera fans will savor the rich details... Readers who like a slow-building story with a strong character focus will find everything they're looking for' —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 Book Review'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'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'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'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'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'A richly imagined epic, briskly and vividly told.' —R.M. Meluch'This wow book is a must for fans of Pierce Brown and Patrick Rothfuss."
