Harbinger of the Storm by Aliette de Bodard

Sequel to Servant of the Underworld

4.0

Acatl, High Priest of the Dead, returns in this sequel to Servant of the Underworld. This time he must solve the murder of a councilman killed on the night of the death of the Emperor. As he delves into what originally looks like a murder to influence the choice for the Emperor's successor, he finds that much more is at stake.

This historical fiction, fantasy and mystery all rolled into one has plenty of action, angry gods, murdering star demons and magical rituals to keep the story moving quickly. It's definitely a page turner and highly recommended.
