Sean Williams provides examples of the following tropes:

False Friend: Ros's friend Escher in the Changeling trilogy.
Fantastic Noir: The Resurrected Man is a noir detective novel in a future world with teleporters and artificial intelligences.
Golem: Several appear in the Changeling trilogy.
Grand Theft Me: The villain of the second book in the Changeling trilogy.
I Know Your True Name: The power of true names is a recurring concern in the Changeling trilogy.
Lightspeed Leapfrog: In "On the Road to Tarsus", a group of colonists is sent by long-range Teleportation to the planet Tarsus, thirty light years from Earth, which means the teleporter signal will take thirty years to get there. While it's still en route, someone back on Earth invents FTL Radio, cutting the journey to a matter of days and allowing another group of colonists to be sent and the colony established years ahead of schedule. As the story closes, the planet is preparing itself for the imminent arrival of the original colonists-to-be.
Space Opera: The Evergence trilogy.
Teleporters and Transporters: The consequences of a particular teleportation system are explored in depth in the novel The Resurrected Man and the short stories collected in A View Before Dying.
True Sight: In the Changeling trilogy, Adi gains this after she dies and is revived, being able to see through illusions and see spirits.
