Calico JesseStarted listening to Princess Floralinda and the forty flight tower, and I’m already disappointed that no gamer fan has seen fit to map out the tower and its monsters yet.
It would make an excellent adventure. Fun book.
Space Catitude 🚀Finished reading "Gideon the Ninth" (Tamsyn Muir, 2019).
I *was* reading this because I thought one of the later books in the series won the Hugo, but apparently, just nominated.
Still, that's a good recommendation, and also this is a book my daughter had bought already.
Without spoilers, I can say I was a little miffed at the ending. It's a bit gross, emotionally, IMHO.
But that was probably part of the point. Metaphor for abuse or something. Perhaps the later books will build on that.
Essentially fantasy, with a bit of eldritch horror, set in a far-future. Major murder-mystery plot through much of it.
And SO MANY characters to keep track of.

Juha HaatajaEn enää muista minkä takia tulin lainanneeksi tämän opuksen kirjastosta. Kovin oli erilaista kuin mitä yleensä luen, välillä tuntui kuin joku selittäisi tosi omituisen tietokonepelin juonenkäänteitä. Mutta luettua tuli.

It’s always tricky to talk about a second book without spoilers, so for those who want more details, my spoiler review is on Goodreads! (Jane_asmo)
No spoiler Review :
Gideon the Ninth was funny, fresh, and an absolute blast to read. So when I picked up Harrow the Ninth, I was incredibly apprehensive—the first book had left me with so many emotions, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready.
I can say that I absolutely loved this book.
It felt like emotion under a microscope—a powerful, overwhelming sense of longing that lingers, holds your hand, and follows you through every page. Always accompanied in your solitude. Feeling a presence, turning around, and finding nothing.
I loved not understanding, I loved feeling lost, I loved questioning everything as I turned each page. And most of all, I loved the journey—because for me, nighttime journeys are always the most beautiful.
I didn’t realize just how much I loved Gideon in the first book until this one, and it hit me hard.
So if you’re hesitant because your fragile heart is still recovering from the first book, just read it. Don’t overthink it, just do it.
You’re in good hands—hands that will hurt you again, but with such talent.

lownMany have accused Tamsyn Muir of not explaining anything, of leaving readers confused and bewildered, of obfuscation for its own sake. This is unfair and uncalled for. She has given us a very clear recipe for soup.
