He then manages to make it one of the most unpredictable and thrilling of journeys for the reader. We know where Hadrian Marlowe ends up, and what he did. But as we read the books, we slowly discover the how and the why.Another aspect of this series that I’ve loved so far is that unlike most fantasy series (this is science fantasy, after all, hence the comparison), where the stories seem to be one large epic saga broken down into 3-5 books, if not more, the first two books of the Sun Eater series are actually very different from each other. Yes, they continue the adventures of Hadrian, but the stories themselves are very unlike each other. If you loved Empire of Silence, don’t worry, you’ll love Howling Dark too, but for completely different reasons.Finally, must mention the world-building itself. Epic, awe inspiring, and in certain chapters and settings in both of the books, jaw dropping as well. Once again, must give credit to the author for creating a world as epic as it can get. Also, must mention the effort the author put into creating the locations, people, aliens, linking it with our own cultures, religion, philosophy, history, etc, to make everything seem so real.Very highly recommended! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The series improves with the second book *by K***A on 18 January 2024* rating. I think it was both more and less of what I expect expected it would be based on the last book. The world building ramps up (it feels so wast and real and terrifying), the chararcters and conflict become more complex and interesting. There were some heartbreaking scenes and Hadrian is a very interesting character to follow. The few issues I had were that I struggled to fully immerse myself in the story at times, not sure why, and that the narrative being told by Hadrian himself in the far future robs me of the chance to experience and figure some things out for myself. For example, he makes a decision, which I feel is the right decision and fully support him in, and then not three sentances later future Hadrian tells us 'yeah that was a mistake'. By the end of the book I can see why, but I would have loved to have had more time to discover that for myself as I think it was made clear by the events and interractions depicted. It's little things, but it would be more impactful if the author held off on these introspections for even a few chapters as I constantly found myself stumbling over feeling one way and immediatelly being told, not shown, I was wrong.Otherwise, a great book. If Amazon allowed it, I would rate it slightly higher than the first and give it a 4.25 and with the way this ended Im hoping the next will only improve. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book. *by A***R on 12 March 2025* Fantastic book, great payoff. Really enjoyed seeing the internal struggle of the main character. The plot is great and the world building is amazing. Would highly recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - Howling Dark: Book Two (Sun Eater) - Demon in White: Book Three (Sun Eater) - Empire of Silence: The universe-spanning science fiction epic (Sun Eater) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/344335353-howling-dark-book-two-sun-eater](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/344335353-howling-dark-book-two-sun-eater) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
