Show Notes

On this bonus episode of the podcast, we take a tour through another type of magically driven story, as we take a break from Motherland: Fort Salem to explore Tamsyn Muir's wonderful novel Gideon the Ninth.

We break down all the things we loved about Gideon, from the genre mashups, to the swarthy, swordwielding useless lesbians. We discuss the fascinating take on necromancy and delve into the central mystery of the novel. Finally, we answer some questions about the book from our fans.

"Lesbian necromancers explore a haunted gothic palace in space!" doesn't begin to scratch the surface of what this book has in store for you, so join us in exploring the ins and outs of all things Gideon, Harrow, and the Nine Houses of the Empire.

Pick up a copy of Gideon at your favorite independent bookstore. And as always, hit us up on Twitter and talk with us about the book! You can find us at @FSWitchingHour or @mad_typist and @DJaedyxe. Please rate and review the show on iTunes, and tell your friends all about us.
