A Call to Arms, by Loren L. Coleman, is the second book in the new Dark Age era.

From the back cover

When the planet falls under siege by yet another splinter group, the Steel Wolves, who are intent on capturing the HPG station, Raul is called to active duty. But when the Swordsworn desert Archenar in its time of need, Raul discovers that there's little honor in the subtle nuisances of treachery and the brutal realities of war...
