Über diesen Titel

Bloomsbury presents Ashes of Man by Christopher Ruocchio, read by Samuel Roukin.

The galaxy is burning.

With the Cielcin united under one banner, the Sollan Empire stands alone after the betrayal of the Commonwealth. The Prophet-King of the Cielcin has sent its armies to burn the worlds of men, and worse, there are rumours... whispers that Hadrian Marlowe is dead, killed in the fighting.

But it is not so. Hadrian survived with the help of the witch, Valka, and together they escaped the net of the enemy having learned a terrible truth: the gods that the Cielcin worship are real and will not rest until the universe is dark and cold.

What is more, the Emperor himself is in danger. The Prophet-King has learned to track his movements as he travels along the borders of Imperial space. Now the Cielcin legions are closing in, their swords poised to strike off the head of all mankind.

The fifth novel of the galaxy-spanning Sun Eater series merges the best of space opera and epic fantasy, as Hadrian Marlowe continues down a path that can only end in fire.

I really enjoy these sun-eater books, but in the last book the breaking of the main character took a far to big part without really feeling exciting in any way.

Similarly the healing of Hadrian takes far too much time in this book without really sharing the character arch of the character. He freezes up until at one stage he doesn't.

I fear that adding to many skills and assets to the main character lead to a power level problem that the author tried to solve by breaking the character and mending him again, in a way.

It just feels that this is where the author just can't relate to both the breaking and the healing process and what it does to the mind. Obviously he then fails at making it an interesting story.

But hey, I still enjoyed the series overall and will listen to the last book when it comes out.

the second mediocre part so far
