The Emperor needs necromancers.<\/p>\n

The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman.<\/p>\n

Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead nonsense.<\/p>\n

Tamsyn Muir\u2019s\u00a0Gideon the Ninth<\/em>, first in The Locked Tomb Trilogy, unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap off the page, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy.<\/p>\n

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. She packs up her sword, her shoes, and her dirty magazines, and prepares to launch her daring escape. But her childhood nemesis won\u2019t set her free without a service.<\/p>\n

Harrowhark Nonagesimus, Reverend Daughter of the Ninth House and bone witch extraordinaire, has been summoned into action. The Emperor has invited the heirs to each of his loyal Houses to a deadly trial of wits and skill. If Harrowhark succeeds she will be become an immortal, all-powerful servant of the Resurrection, but no necromancer can ascend without their cavalier. Without Gideon\u2019s sword, Harrow will fail, and the Ninth House will die.<\/p>\n

Of course, some things are better left dead.<\/p>\n
