In the Courts of the Sun by Brian D’Amato
In the Courts of the Sun is an interesting novel, built Frankenstein’s-monster-like from the elements of a Michael Crichton techno-thriller, Gary Jennings’ Aztec series, and one of Stephen Baxter‘s unique spins on time travel.

The story is heavily character-driven, led by Jed DeLanda,
