Ciaphas Cain: Choose Your Enemies by Sandy Mitchell (Ciaphas Cain #10, Link to the storygraph page):

Summary: Commissar Ciaphas Cain returns! After putting down an uprising on a mining world, he finds evidence that the corruption might have spread to other planets, and the forge world of Ironfound could now be at risk…

Thoughts: Warhammer 40K is famous for being a grimdark dystopian scifi setting. The Ciaphas Cain series is relatively lighthearted and accessible entry from a Everyman's POV. It can feel a bit formulaic as it reached the tenth book, and my favourite Valhallan 597th characters are sidelined, but I appreciate the introduction of eldar as a new faction. Their hit-and-run strategy and planning for the long game makes them a legitimate threat with their agenda.
