This is a cyberpunk series, it's just not obvious from the start since they have real royalty instead of corpo royalty. The main character knows what is up and acts exactly like cyberpunk MCs should act (but never do for some reason). Respect authority, keep your head down, make friends in high places. While still being quite human. It's good stuff if you like characters that are morally grey in a non cliche way, without just being basic antiheros. Lacks polish but it's great stuff at its core.
