Loved Empire of Silence so much, so far this story feels made for readers like me, who love a good space opera and the blend of Science/Fantasy. Book 1 reads to me like The Name of the Wind and Dune had a baby, and that baby grew up watching Guardians of the Galaxy and Thor Ragnarok. Maybe that's crazy, but it makes sense to me lol.

Not only is this first book absolutely phenomenal so far IMO. (And I hear it's the weakest in the series) These covers are stellar looking, and I love that the spines have a smaller cut out of the cover art. They look great on the shelf! So excited to continue my journey with Hadrian, as it's been a blast so far. Very much feels like Dune meets the Name of the Wind in tone and style. Reads more like Rothfuss in prose and style, but with the intergalactic setting, science, and politics similar to Herbert's Dune.
