His Staying Hand — Paul Smith

Unrest spreads across the Arc Sea in the wake of the invasion of Kharpal. Ikari flees the Myson, but help is at hand from unexpected quarters. Meanwhile, on the island of Faeron, Rivan's immortal benefactor prepares to lead the Orphans to war. And on the streets of the Floating City Mark must continue to tread that fine line between friend and foe as he attempts to maintain peace between his Circle and the Imperial usurpers. Sex, drugs and political scheming. The party continues, come join the fun. * This edition also includes Timo and Ikari's 'Journey to the Dragon's Graveyard'. With a style variously described as Armistead Maupin meets Philip Pullman, and reminiscent of Richard Morgan, this is character driven fantasy with just a hint of cyberpunk. Look out for part one, 'The Orphans Revolt', also available on Amazon.
