Lives of Bitter Rain by Adrian Tchaikovsky
Kind of cheated. This is a novella set in the Tyrant Philosopher's world. It's kind of the cliff notes to the main character in Tchaikovsky's last book Days of Shattered Faith. I was about halfway through the 160 pages when I realized it was the same character. The novella does flesh out the world more. You get some insight into the Pals and how they operate. But the Novella ends basically where Days of Shattered Faith starts.
It was diverting, but I felt a little cheated we weren't entering another odd city in this world.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
