— CHARACTER NAME, SHORT STORY NAME
Tales of the Sun Eater, Volume 1 is the first collection of short stories in the Sun Eater series by Christopher Ruocchio. First published exclusively in Ebook format on April 16, 2021, the collection follows characters, both novel and familiar, in events that are preceded by Howling Dark and succeeded by Demon in White.
Because Traditional publishing generally will not publish small volumes of shorts stories, the Tales of the Sun Eater collections will continue to be released exclusively in Ebook format. However, Highmatter Books has plans to release a printed master collection for fans who want a physical copy of the short stories. No date has been given.
For details on the Novellas and the other Tales of the Sun Eater, see Novellas and Short Story Collections.

Synopsis
Seven stories from the universe of the Sun Eater written by award-winning author Christopher Ruocchio and collected here for the very first time.
A new horror comes to a centuries-old war... A machine witch on trial for crimes against her own humanity... Pirates in the black of space… Here are tales of the far future, of a time where mankind reigns across the galaxy: a time of war, of great evil, and of greater heroes. Here are tales of the Sollan Empire, and of the barbarians who dwell in the cracks between its stars. Here are tales of strange, far worlds. Tales of battle, of desperation, and holy law. And here, too, are tales of a man who will change the fate and future of the galaxy as a whole. Tales of the Sun Eater, of Hadrian Marlowe himself.
