![]() ![]() But her childhood nemesis won’t set her free without a service. She packs up her sword, her shoes, and her dirty magazines, and prepares to launch her daring escape. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy.īrought 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. Her characters leap off the page, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth, first in The Locked Tomb Trilogy, unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead nonsense. The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman. “ Brilliantly original, messy and weird straight through. “Lesbian necromancers explore a haunted gothic palace in space!” -Charles Stross
