Demon in White

Book Three

By: Christopher Ruocchio

Narrated by: Saul Reichlin

The third 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.

Hadrian and his Red Company have been serving the Empire in military engagements against the Cielcin, the vicious alien civilisation bent on humanity's destruction. And they've been successful: a cult-like fervour building around following a particularly impressive victory. but popularity comes as a price: an assassination attempt, triggered by those within the Imperial government who are scared of his rise to prominence.

Now the Empire has turned dangerous, Hadrian and his crew leave to pursue his true interest: a search for a long-rumoured connection between the first Emperor and the Quiet, the ancient, seemingly long-dead race. And he will find the next key to unlocking their secrets in a massive library on a distant world.

The coordinates for their origin planet.

A planet that no longer holds life, but may still contain answers.

Epic !

Masterclass again, from volume to volume the story just got better and more incredible. The change of reader for the next volumes is to bad though, this narrator was perfect on all aspects.

Masterclass

Listening to Demon in White was an absolutely incredible experience. The story captivated me from start to finish, with its epic scope and deep character development. Hadrian Marlowe’s journey felt more vivid and intense than ever, with the narration truly bringing the characters and world to life, making the emotions and action feel so real. This audiobook was more than just a listen—it was a full immersion into an unforgettable story. I was completely hooked, and it left me eagerly anticipating the next chapter in the series.

Amazing book

I feel that in this volume the entire saga finaly hits its stride. The plot realy thickens and every chapter has weight, intrigue and consequence.
Feels like this is what I have been wanting when I stared the series.
The previous slow books have paid off.

Tedious and uninspired

I gave this serie an honest try but won't go any further. It's too slow paced, the author truly lacks imagination, the lore is paper thin, characters are one dimensional, dialogs are cringe, there are a tons of repetitions... Space opera Wish edition
