GraphicAudio now lists November 20, 2026, for the first part of its full-cast Empire of Silence adaptation, with the second part due February 12, 2027.

GraphicAudio is going back to the drawing board on its full-cast adaptation of Christopher Ruocchio’s Empire of Silence after the first preview received a largely negative response from Sun Eater fans.
