I read Suneater #1, Empire of Silence, a few weeks ago and needed something different before going to #2. So I'm now 3/4 through Project Hail Mary and what do I find? Things eating the sun. There's no escape, folks. 😀 PS. Both extraordinarily imaginative and fast paced books.
Glad you loved it. Agree with what you said here. I think it feels like the spiritual successor to Howling Dark with structure/pacing like DiW. I've decided it's my favorite Sun Eater book
If you havent yet read The Dregs of an Empire, check it out. Its the story of what happened to Lorian between Disquiet Gods and the previous book. Its a great look into Lorian as a character imo.
@WordsinTime Definitely read it if you like Lorian. It developed his character more than any other book in the series, in my opinion. Which I suppose should be obvious since it's a book solely centered on him lol.
To be fair you should also consider the 3rd option. Which is that both you and the book are insane, at least that would probably be applicable for me anyway :)
I've heard so many great things about this book, I'm just not sure I want to commit to a 7 series tale. Electric Forest, Way Station and Hot House are 3 books I cannot find out in "the field".
It is a commitment, but for me it has been worth it, and I say that as someone that doesn’t read a lot of long series. I loved Way Station, and I’ve heard good things about Hot House. Hopefully I enjoy Electric Forest!
The series is told in a manner where Hadrian gives you the ending on page 1 of the first book and the series is about how he came to be the Sun Eater. Otherwise all I said about Hadrian is that he has ups and downs, which is pretty vague, and I didn’t mention a single other character name. As far as reviewing something that is book 6 in a series I feel like I did my best to avoid spoilers.
@@WordsinTime got it, thanks, should have assumed that. on a related note, maybe an interesting video idea would be to explore what is and isn't a spoiler.
@@avantgardenovelistspoiler is completely subjective…I mean there are objective spoilers but Plenty is subjective and people will still complain about anything and everything. IMHO, if you don’t want any spoilers, stay away from all content related to said topic…as best you can anyway.
