Sinister Syndicate of Space
Sinister Syndicate of Space by John C. Wright
Book 8 of Starquest.
Plots thicken -- and converge. Spoilers ahead for the earlier works.
An old rebel appears to aid the new generation. Athos, King of the Pirates, must juggle his position with his duties as the Vindicator -- and his role as one of the Secret Seven. The Syndicate of Space does indeed feature significantly and in its own role, which brings in Nightshadow's plot. And Lyra's.
It includes an urge to forgive, the old Pirate Code, a tailor robot, a sword that Athos can draw but not wield to use on living flesh, and more.
