New Space Opera ‘Cacophony Of Separation’ Follows Two Broken Souls Through a Galactic Empire Built on Subjugation

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Bryan P. Harty has a new novel out: "Cacophony Of Separation," a dark space opera depicting a future in which Earth’s dominant leaders control alien races and subjugated worlds through force. Studio CarryOnHarry received an announcement of the release, published through Newman Springs Publishing.

The book follows two central characters. Boer, a disgraced addict, seeks redemption by facing trials the publisher characterizes as impossible. Rebecca has lost her memory but is driven by vengeance. According to the announcement, the two are on a collision course that will determine whether humanity’s empire survives its own corruption, with ancient powers maneuvering behind the scenes throughout.

The publisher describes Harty’s work as centered on morally ambiguous protagonists and unresolved consequences, with the author’s stated approach avoiding tidy endings in favor of choices that carry lasting weight. The novel’s advertised themes include addiction, redemption, transformation, and the fracturing of empires built on subjugation.

Harty framed the book’s central question in his own words: "This novel asks what we’re willing to become in pursuit of redemption, and whether the cost is ever worth the price. Boer and Rebecca exist in a galaxy that doesn’t forgive weakness, yet both must find strength in the wreckage of their former selves. I wanted to create a space opera that refuses to look away from the brutality of power and the hunger for transformation."

Retail listings describe the book similarly, pitching it as a dark, unflinching look at power, addiction, transformation and the cost of redemption, with cover copy inviting readers to "step into a galaxy where nothing — and no one — is what it seems." The novel is listed for sale in paperback and Kindle editions, alongside Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.

Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching to see whether Harty’s promise of unresolved, morally messy storytelling holds up as more readers weigh in, given how heavily the announcement leans on that distinction.
