Özet

The Emperor needs necromancers.

The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman.

Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead nonsense.

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. She packs up her sword, her shoes, and her dirty magazines, and prepares to launch her daring escape. But her childhood nemesis won’t set her free without a service.

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’s sword, Harrow will fail, and the Ninth House will die.

Of course, some things are better left dead.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Tamsyn Muir's absorbing storytelling and Moira Quirk's immersive performance create a richly imagined fantasy world.... Quirk is at turns antagonistic, vulnerable, and hopelessly helpful as she characterizes all the participants and stewards of Canaan House.... Listeners will eagerly anticipate the trilogy's next installment." (AudioFile Magazine)

Not cause it is the best book or most original story, but for the flawless production and perfect rendering of the characters and emotions by the narrator. I don't know about you but whenever I start an audio book I am a little off balance weighing the interpretive narration with how my own inner voice might render it. I can honestly say that in Gideon the ninth and Moira Quirk I found a narrator that could match and exceed my inner narrator on all counts creating a great immersive experience, a graphic novel drawn in words

Thank you

Oh and don't let the blurb put you off. The cheap quips about lesbian necromancers underplays the twisting dark gothic scifi melange that is this book. You've never read its like.

This maybe the best audio book I've "read"

The sarcasm and swearing really made this book for me. The narrator is insanely good

Amazing

The quips in this book are as relentless as the characters. I like a good rogue, but a gay ginger rogue in space? Bloody perfection. I was wondering if the story would let me down after reading a few other reviews, but it actually caught me with a twist or two I didn't see coming! (a difficult feat in this cliche ridden genre). Add a bunch of fresh ideas, a generous dash of blood, and filter it all through an incredible performance from Moira Quirk, and it makes for a book so good that I'm absolutely furious that next installment isn't at my fingertips!

Irreverent, gory, and completely gripping

Loved the narrator, the writing. Fantastic! Really enoy the aesthetic of the book, the characters. A fun and cool ride.

Amazing

A really enjoyable book with great characters and fascinating relationships. The mix of pretentious archaic language with colourful modern expressions and insults feels very fresh and brings everything to life, despite their world being as grimdark as the likes of Warhammer 40,000. Unless colourful language offends you, I’d recommend this to anyone.

A fantastic ‘read’ that’s very well narrated
