The Killing of Worlds, Westerfeld. Yes. The conclusion of The Risen Empire, it's largely indistinguishable in quality from the prior work. The overall work is somewhat disappointing in plot-related ways. Not Books of Lost Swords disappointing, but it perhaps underscores the difficulty of constructing a plot that justifies the sweep of space opera.
