I've really enjoyed the Emperors Edge series, and Republic is a great conclusion. Have also read the related Decrypted/Encrypted books about Admiral Starcrest and Dr. Komitopis in their early years together. I'm not typically a fantasy reader, but the combo of steampunk on some unknown world timeline that includes "mental sciences" aka magic is a good combo. This world has a rich and deep history, my only suggestion is that the author could have framed the "magic" as a result of nanites in the ambient environment that remain from some ancient human technological singularity or the "aliens" responsible for so much tech here.
