Disquiet Gods

By: Christopher Ruocchio

Narrated by: Samuel Roukin

Length: 31 hrs and 38 mins

Publisher's summary

The sixth 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.

The end is nigh.

It has been nearly two hundred years since Hadrian Marlowe assaulted the person of the Emperor and walked away from war. From his Empire. His duty. From the will and service of the eldritch being known only as the Quiet. The galaxy lies in the grip of a terrible plague, and worse, the Cielcin have overrun the realms of men.

A messenger has come to Jadd, bearing a summons from the Sollan Emperor for the one-time hero. A summons, a pardon, and a plea. HAPSIS, the Emperor’s secret first-contact intelligence organization, has located one of the dreadful Watchers, the immense, powerful beings worshipped by the Pale Cielcin.

Called out of retirement and exile, the old hero—accompanied by his daughter, Cassandra—must race across the galaxy and against time to accomplish one last, impossible task: To kill a god.

Great writing. l can't express how much I've enjoyed this journey.

l can't say anything negative about any of the books in this unfolding saga. Simply Wonderful.

Wow, that went all over the place.

What an incredible story. Really brought many of the plot points from the previous books forward in a meaningful way way.

Fantastic!

Another amazing book! never disappointed with this series. I need the next book now! if you see this and haven't started this series, what are you waiting for? go now!

Masterpiece!

Sure, here's a refined version:

"The Unquiet God is easily my favorite space opera of the year. Outstanding character development and heart-stopping action keep you hooked from beginning to end. The narrative builds to a denouement that cleverly hints at future epics.

Still Good, One of the Best

The Sun Eater series is one of the best. I like most everything about it. The only complaint I really have is a literary technique that CR employs perhaps far too often. He often previews a characters unveiling or the speaking of the main character as if the character is outside of himself and didn’t realize he was the one talking until later. “…and then I realized that voice was my own…” It’s no big deal but it happens so often it’s worth noting. This one got pretty complicated at times at certain revelations made it so things we thought we knew about the Sun Eater universe were negated pretty late in the game. Such is the way of the story though. Def worth a listen, it’s good.

This series is tied with Red Rising and my 2 favorite series.

After reading the Red Rising series I searched for something that would scratch the itch of a book series that felt similar and although this series isn't exactly similar it scratches the itch for me. Honestly the writing is better in a lot of ways as well. I'm now desperate for the next book!

brilliant storytelling

this series has never disappointed and continues to amaze me. An amazing story, sympathetic characters, the unraveling of an awful, beautiful history that, for all that the setting is alien, is infinitely, often painfully relatable - and at times absurdly, inappropriately funny. I cant wait for the next one!

Another great book

The story continues and did not disappoint. Great addition to the series. My only complaint is that now I have to wait for the next one. Hope it gets done soon, but hope is a cloud.

Oh man. Book 7 is a long ways off.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so bummed to see a book end I’m on the author’s mailing list and with all of his other projects vying for his limited bandwidth, as I type this Book 7 is on the back burner.
Have you ever had an audiobook that you came up with various tasks to do so you could do those tasks while also listening to the book? Every Sun Eater book is that way for me.
Now what do I do? :-)
I hope the new book comes quickly.
Samuel’s voice is velvet and perfectly suited for performing the Sun Eater books. I wish he did more science fiction/fantasy work. All I’ve been able to find is nonfiction.
Dear reader if you’re on the fence about this book and starting it then stop messing around and use up that credit. And pray the next book comes along quickly.

Masterpiece

I have listened now to every book in this series I can get a hold of and it's a masterpiece! What an excellent story, I don't remember another author that made me care for characters so. What an immersive world you have built Christopher. I don't like everything you have done in these stories, but that makes it feel all the more real, as I don't like everything that happens in life. Well done!
