Story
Leo Graf was just your average highly efficient engineer: mind your own business, fix what's wrong, and move on to the next job. But all that changed on his assignment to the Cay Habitat, where a group of humanoids had been secretly, commercially bioengineered for working in free fall. Could he just stand there and allow the exploitation of hundreds of helpless children merely to enhance the bottom line of a heartless mega-corporation?

Young, pregnant Fawn Bluefield has just fled her family's farm to the city of Glassforge, where she encounters a patrol of the enigmatic soldier-sorcerers known as Lakewalkers.

What she does not know is that the Lakewalkers are engaged in a perilous campaign against inhuman and immortal magical entities known as "malices".

Really fun
Kind of reminds me of the Hornblower series. Love the characters and the humour that underpin the crazy and complex situations they blunder through, using wit and guile to win the day (mostly).

read in sequence
I lost the plot. Too many characters and complicated politics. I think it would have been easier if I had read the previous volume
