If you haven't read Ruthless or Theodicy, you certainly do not know what you are missing. If you have read these two novellas, you have an idea of what to expect in his forthcoming EVE novel.
However, not too much is known about the man writing and helping expand the stories that make EVE a living and breathing universe. Now's your chance. TonyG has written a Dev Blog introducing himself and also shares some thoughts about Life, the Universe and Everything.

Oh that is great news, i read everything (almost i think) from chronicles to your 2 short stories. I liked them alot and find them too short. We need more on the history of the 5 empires.
Thank you and will hope for the eve novel.

And yet by comparison, Eve is relatively restrained for a far-future Space Opera setting.
There is no large-scale use of nanotech visible to pilots, neutral rigs are possible only inside sealed pods, and so on. And its science is based - even loosely - on currently established theories (such as the casimir effect for warp drives).
I myself have tried to write a few stories for Eve, but in all honesty I was often stymied by the LACK of post-Human elements to the stories. Now that...a true post-Human element has been introduced to us for the first time (the...ahh, Dark Jove, not gonna TRY and spell it) it'll be interesting to see how things turn out.

Loved the novellas, absolute masterpieces and the thought of a pending novel is most excellent.
Question about the last novella. Is it over? Do we find out what's going to happen with all the characters and events leading to the end of chapter 7? I still think about them and wonder their fates.

heh tbh I quite like the golden age style of eve science fiction. Its all very Isaac Asimov and E. "Doc" Smith and grand old ideas of giant space empires and heroic space fleets clashing in 4 colour imagery and thats pretty much a good thing sometimes. Some of the recent scifi trends although very interesting admittedly do take away some of the grandeur of old style sciencefiction visions (and here I'm talking about nanotechnology and exotic energy forms and transcendent artificial intelligences as deux et machina etc etc). Sometimes its very refreshing to see the universe in terms of nuclear powered dreadnaughts and atom lasers clashing in golden-age warfare across the cosmos.
Of course given our corp background we can blame all that IC on the corrosive influence of imperialist memetics and enjoy being the countercultural opposition to the big ideas government and territorialist regression
