Agent Cormac, book one

When a portal to other planets explodes on Samarkand, thousands are killed and a terraforming project is obliterated. Earth Central Security suspects sabotage and assigns a legendary investigator. But Agent Ian Cormac has his own problems. Years spent mentally linked to the Polity's AI network have eroded his humanity, and this gridlink has to be severed or hell die. Without it, he has only his wits (and Shuriken, a throwing star with a mind of its own) to rely on. Cormacs disastrous last mission also haunts him as a psychopath and a murderous android track him across the galaxy, seeking revenge. Meanwhile, the ice-bound planet of Samarkand hides deadly secrets beneath its surface... secrets Cormac is about to disturb
