Erikoisin scifi/fantasiamaailma johon olen tutustunut. Nekromansiaa, eloon herätetyt luurangot palvelijoina, kuolematon keisari, miekkataisteluita (parhaiten kuvattuja koskaan. Rapierit❤️), synkkiä salaisuuksia, yleviä puheita ja toisaalta myös melko reipasta kielenkäyttöä ja huumoria. Välillä kirja hyytyy juonitteluihin, mutta sitten tulee seuraava miekkataistelu⚔️. Loppu pakottanee lukemaan myös jatko-osat. #kirjat #books #kirjafedi #KirjaMastodon #gideonthenight #TamsynMuir

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.

Why did Gideon get the sunglasses??

"How / where from" has a straightforward answer: same place as the dirty magazines. On some of the inner planets Dominicus may still shine bright enough that sunglasses make sense and are manufactured, but on the Ninth? Out on Pluto? Maybe she just saw them in those same magazines, and thought they looked cool. Nav is a simple soul.

A Doylist explanation is that Muir needed them at the end of Harrow to hide Gideon's eyes out of Harrow's face (and Pyrra's out of G1deon's)
