— CHARACTER NAME, SHORT STORY NAME

Sins of the Sun Eater is the second short story omnibus in the Sun Eater series by Christopher Ruocchio. No release date has been confirmed, though Ruocchio has indicated a target of late AD 2027. The collection will contain fourteen stories, two of which are original: "Life," a short story set after the events of Shadows Upon Time, and an all-new Valka POV novelette. The remaining twelve stories will be drawn from the four prior Tales of the Sun Eater volumes, completing the short fiction coverage of those collections alongside Songs of the Sun Eater. "Life" is the first post-Shadows story released in the Sun Eater universe, and will make its debut in the Unbroken anthology via Kickstarter prior to its inclusion here. Upon publication of both omnibuses, all of Ruocchio's Sun Eater short fiction will be accounted for, with the sole exception of stories appearing in special editions, which are reserved for a planned third and final omnibus.
