Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

In a corporate-dominated spacefaring future, planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. Exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own safety. But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isn’t a primary concern. On a distant planet, a team of scientists are conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied ‘droid—a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to itself (though never out loud) as “Murderbot.”

At just 15, Eskara Helsene fought in the greatest war mankind has ever known - and lost. There is only one place her enemies would send a Sourcerer as powerful as her: the Pit, a prison sunk so deep into the earth the sun is a distant memory. Now, she finds herself stripped of her magic; a young girl surrounded by thieves, murderers, and worse. In order to survive she will need to make new allies, play the inmates against each other, and find a way out. Her enemies will soon find out that Eskara is not so easily broken.

The port city of Hainak is alive: its buildings, its fashion, even its weapons. But, after a devastating war and a sweeping biotech revolution, all its inhabitants want is peace, no one more so than Yat Jyn-Hok, a reformed-thief-turned-cop who patrols the streets at night. Yat has recently been demoted on the force due to “lifestyle choices” after being caught at a gay club. She’s barely holding it together. When she stumbles across a dead body on her patrol, two fellow officers gruesomely murder her and dump her into the harbor. Unfortunately for them, she wakes up.

The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

Publisher's Summary
Harrow the Ninth, the sequel to the sensational, USA Today best-selling novel Gideon the Ninth, turns a galaxy inside out as one necromancer struggles to survive the wreckage of herself aboard the emperor's haunted space station.
She answered the emperor's call.
She arrived with her arts, her wits, and her only friend.
In victory, her world has turned to ash.
After rocking the cosmos with her deathly debut, Tamsyn Muir continues the story of the penumbral Ninth House in Harrow the Ninth, a mind-twisting puzzle box of mystery, murder, magic, and mayhem. Nothing is as it seems in the halls of the emperor, and the fate of the galaxy rests on one woman's shoulders.
Harrowhark Nonagesimus, last necromancer of the Ninth House, has been drafted by her emperor to fight an unwinnable war. Side-by-side with a detested rival, Harrow must perfect her skills and become an angel of undeath - but her health is failing, her sword makes her nauseous, and even her mind is threatening to betray her.
Sealed in the Gothic gloom of the emperor's Mithraeum with three unfriendly teachers, hunted by the mad ghost of a murdered planet, Harrow must confront two unwelcome questions: Is somebody trying to kill her? And if they succeeded, would the universe be better off?

Enjoyable but mixed
Good for people who enjoy wild flights of imagination, theoretical gymnastics, conspiracies and gore. The plot is really confusing for most of the book and does drag in places, you have to let go and roll with it. Enjoy the mental exercise. By the end it will be mostly explained and made worthwhile. The characters are almost all raging ar**holes with no redeming features. But...there is beautiful heart and revelation at the close. Have courage.

Not what I’d normally read but brilliant
Twists turns an intrigue, there are parts of the story that ramble a bit but the performance from the narrator raises the piece as a whole.

insanely brilliant
I can't thank you enough, Tamsyn, for an insanely brilliant piece of work. The intentionally confusing style, subject and complex narrative has forced me to read the series at least twice; the fact I took the time to do that is a testament to your brilliance. I am hooked and eagerly await the conclusion.
I would also like to thank Moira for the passion that went into the narration. With a wide range of voices, it was easy to tell who was speaking and the mood they were in at the time. Inclination and cheekiness helped immensely with the engagement.

It does what a film cannot.
A curious story that ducks and weaves. I’m left not quite understanding the epilogue (I’ve listened 3 times now), thinking I understand what’s going on but not sure of it.
The writer reminds me of someone who attends a creative writing class that everyone quickly realised has much more skill than the teacher.
I can’t decide if it’s brilliant writing and Tamsyn Muir will be this generations James Joyce or if just another potboiler author.
I’m definitely up for book 3 because I really want to know if Muir is Joyce or just a necromantic BV Larson. Deep down I hope that she’s a Joyce or a new Ursula Le Guin but we will have to wait and see.
I read the reviews before listening and this book with its myriad tossing and turning and requirement that you have read the first book or it would throw you off was still a very interesting place to lose myself.
I doubt they could make this into a film without destroying it and I like that about the writing. It’ seems writing wise to be a bit of an FU to Hollywood but they wouldn’t give it a try i suspect. Too busy recycling last decades underperforming imaginations and making new screenplays with everything seen before..
The edges in this book, tho subtle are too sharp for Hollywood and that’s interesting.

Mental whiplash with a satisfying climax
The start of this novel completely took me off guard and I felt as thought I had hallucinated the first novel. Without getting into spoiler majority of the first books history is “rewritten” with an almost omniscient third/first person perspective.
It took me a few attempts to get into the book but once I got over the first few chapters and was reintroduced to the world and God - I was hooked. I absolutely love the world and post apocalyptic magic that let humanity live on.
It was a little scattered in its pacing but I throughly enjoyed getting to know other characters that didn’t get much time on the first novel. Moira Quirk is an absolute standout and powerhouse for narrating this series and would highly recommend if you enjoy her cadence.
Overall I loved getting back into this world but felt as though I was swimming through the river in a few moments that spoiled the fun.

Just as good as the first
Muir is brilliant - the second installment brings new characters and new mysteries, with plenty more twists and turns.
Quirk's narration, like the first book, brings the characters to life in such a wonderfully compelling way - truly brilliant performance.

Entrancing complex, nuanced and sometimes funny
Great imaginative leap into a sci-fi necromancy. Characterisation is superb, dialogue a poetry of the mundane and metaphysical, imagery a florid arrangement of gore. Compelling.
