Gideon la novena / Gideon the Ninth
Description:
La inclasificable novela que ha ganado el Premio Locus 2020 al debut del año y ha sido finalista de los premios Hugo, Nebula y World Fantasy a la mejor novela.
El Emperador necesita nigromantes. La nigromante de la Novena necesita una espadachina. Gideon tiene una espada, unas revistas guarras y ninguna paciencia para tonterías con los muertos vivientes.
Después de haber sido criada por profesoras antipáticas y osificadas, sirvientes vetustos y una infinidad de esqueletos, Gideon está lista para abandonar una vida de servidumbre y un más allá como cadáver reanimado. Mete su espada y sus revistas guarras en la maleta y se prepara para su audaz escapada. Pero su némesis de la infancia no piensa dejar que se libere así como así.
Harrowhark Nonagesimus, reverenda hija de la Novena Casa y extraordinaria bruja de los huesos, ha sido convocada. El Emperador ha invitado a los herederos de cada una de sus leales casas a una prueba mortal que someterá a examen su inteligencia y sus habilidades. Si Harrowhark Nonagesimus tiene éxito, se convertirá en una sirviente inmortal y todopoderosa de la Resurrección, pero ningún nigromante ha sido capaz de conseguirlo sin la ayuda de su caballero. Sin la espada de Gideon, Harrow fracasará y la Novena Casa terminará por desaparecer.
Y hay cosas que es mejor dejar muertas.

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, first in The Locked Tomb Trilogy, unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap off the page, 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.
