I've been reading the Fifth Millenium series, or part of it. It's complex: seven or eight novels, two which were revised and republished; three different authors. I'd probably like the character Shkai'ra better if I hadn't started with Snowbrother, which is solely by S.M. Stirling. There's canon F/F, but also lots of nastiness and gore. And cannibals, because Stirling.

Then Saber and Shadow, now Shadow's Daughter which is about the childhood (so far) of one of the two main characters.

There's a related short story by Stirling in a 1990s anthology, so I've ordered a copy, since the story hasn't been reprinted.

Any mention of the Fifth Millenium series is quite buried in Stirling's website, maybe because the books are long out of print and were co-authored.
