Lady Kiva Lagos to brighten my days while swearing up a storm!

The third character is Kiva Lagos, a foul-mouthed, politically and tactically brilliant member of the House of Lagos, who stumbles into the rebellion on End. When the government freezes Kiva’s rights of trade on End under false pretenses in order to use her guild’s money to fight the rebels, Kiva has to figure out how to recoup her costs amid political upheaval… especially when it becomes clear that rival House Nohamapetan (and a trio of siblings within it that Kiva really doesn’t like), is somehow involved in the rebellion on End.https://www.tor.com/2017/04/07/scalzi-levels-up-the-collapsing-empires-characters-are-its-secret-weapon/
