Summary
On the Role of an Emperor is a book written by Edrehasivar VII Zhas (personal name Maia Drazhar) around the late 1230s AEC, though it wasn't published until after he died in 1239. It is partially a treatise on what defines a "good" emperor, and partially an autobiography discussing the process behind many important policy decisions as well as choice moments from his personal life.

Bookmarker's Notes
A thoughtful ethical analysis of one of the most striking moments in the book from Maia's perspective as a very experienced Emperor.

I’m confused at why these humans insist on performing additional work to make food when there is no lack of access to meal packs. On assignment, complaints about access to specific types of meal packs had caused a significant number of fights and productivity-costing injury.

Summary
Intra-corp politics, a SecUnit brand known for odd behavior, and a planet soaking in the radiation of a sun far too close for (human) comfort. It's no wonder that Inspector Marcelle's inspection of Muirmill's new logging installation doesn't quite go to plan.
Several years later, Assistant Supervisor Durant is determined to prove that the Can's fourth habitation block definitely isn't haunted. Unfortunately, Durant is wrong.
