She answered the Emperor's call. She arrived with her arts, her wits, and her only friend. In victory, her world has turned to ash. After rocking the cosmos with her deathly debut, Tamsyn Muir continues the story of the penumbral Ninth House in Harrow the Ninth, a mind-twisting puzzle box of mystery, murder, magic, and mayhem. Nothing is as it seems in the halls of the Emperor, and the fate of the galaxy rests on one woman's shoulders. Harrowhark Nonagesimus, last necromancer of the Ninth House, has been drafted by her Emperor to fight an unwinnable war. Side-by-side with a detested rival, Harrow must perfect her skills and become an angel of undeath -- but her health is failing, her sword makes her nauseous, and even her mind is threatening to betray her. Sealed in the gothic gloom of the Emperor's Mithraeum with three unfriendly teachers, hunted by the mad ghost of a murdered planet, Harrow must confront two unwelcome questions: is somebody trying to kill her? And if they succeeded, would the universe be better off? THE LOCKED TOMB SERIES

Amazing follow up

Harrow is the type of book that leads you down several paths all at once that don't make sense until they do. Its just as much crashing, cursing, and butt jokes as the 1st book. Awesome read
Way better than the first book!

Gideon the Ninth was an above average action--thriller, with good characters. But Harrow the Ninth is far above average compared to any book of any genre, even none fiction. It is so outside the box, and brilliant in every way that I'm at a loss for words. I seriously can't think of anything more to say. Also I take back what I said in my GtN review: this series is now solidly tied with Cute Mutants, in my 'best fantasy series ever' category.
Definitely unexpected.

I mean woah. First 50 pages I genuinely thought I was reading the wrong book. Muir how can you possibly write like this!? Fair warning this felt much different from the first book, but I was hooked the entire way through.
I don’t know how an author can even think to take us through a journey like this and I remain utterly amazed.
Muir has cemented her place as one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait for the third book.
