{"product_id":"9781473218260","title":"Empire of Silence","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn the wrong planet, at the right time, for the best reasons, Hadrian Marlowe started down a path that could only end in fire. The galaxy remembers him as a hero: the man who burned every last alien Cielcin from the sky. They remember him as a monster: the devil who destroyed a sun, casually annihilating four billion human lives--even the Emperor himself--against Imperial orders. But Hadrian was not a hero. He was not a monster. He was not even a soldier. Fleeing his father and a future as a torturer, Hadrian finds himself stranded on a strange, backwater world. Forced to fight as a gladiator in a war he did not start, for an Empire he does not love, against an enemy he will never understand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Christopher+Ruocchio\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eChristopher Ruocchio\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Christopher Ruocchio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47376663511203,"sku":"9781473218260","price":325.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781473218260_3ea596b7-c816-4797-8e05-cebef035d1a8.jpg?v=1776544401","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781473218260","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
