    He’s a favourite of mine as well. Have you read Cage of Souls? It breaks your sapience mold, and of his books I liked it best until he wrote The Final Architecture trilogy.

    It’s almost fantasy-like in plot, but the world is shown through a lens of “lost technology” rather than “magic”.

      I haven’t. It’s not for sale as an ebook in the US, sadly.

      I’m working my way through City of Last Chances right now and am really enjoying it. It’s straight fantasy.
