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 book

Six books and I love them all the get better and better as each book comes

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!

As so it continues

I love this series and it’s excellent narration. This one blew my mind around chapter 39. I never lose interest in Hadrian Marlowe.

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!

oh the places you will go

my new favorite sun eater novel by a wide margin, absolutely blown away by the twists and turns this book took to keep the path

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.

Gripping story

I think this was solidly done, good plot twists and progression through the story. Also good blasts from the pasts

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.

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!

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!
