Space Opera
by Christopher Ruocchio · The Sun Eater series
Hadrian Marlowe, failed scholar and future destroyer of a sun, narrates his rise from disgraced noble to interstellar legend. Ruocchio's debut is Gene Wolfe by way of *Dune* — unreliable, literary, and unapologetically long, told by a man looking back across centuries at the boy who wanted to be good.
