Notes
- From the series record (The Tyrant Philosophers): A sequence of loosely connected novels following the Palleseen, a militarised empire of ideological "perfectionists", as their occupation spreads across a series of very different cities. Each book largely follows new viewpoint characters in a new setting, tied together by the Palleseen war machine and a recurring cast of officers and agents rather than one single continuous plot.
