Master Chieve
Finished Gideon the Ninth
Master Chieve
It’s good
Master Chieve
A fun read with a HELL of an action packed finale
Master Chieve
Only problem I had was I had a bit of trouble keeping the characters straight because they introduced the main duo and then a bit later they introduced 15 more characters at once
Master Chieve
The structure of the story was kind of like a mystery novel
Master Chieve
Or maybe a thriller
Master Chieve
Very “one of us is the killer!”
Master Chieve
There was a stretch towards the beginning that was kind of weirdly meandering but the individual characters were entertaining enough that they held my attention through that part
Master Chieve
Okay spoiler wall but you should read it it’s good
Master Chieve
Master Chieve
I saw the ending coming
Master Chieve
Not the epilogue but
Master Chieve
It was super clear that the only way to beat a lyctor was with another lyctor
Master Chieve
I didn’t correctly guess the murderer though
Master Chieve
I also looked at the cover of Harrow the Ninth
Master Chieve
And on that, Harrow has a big two handed sword strapped to her back
Master Chieve
Which, if you’re paying attention, is a huge spoiler
Master Chieve
That Harrow and Gideon become a lyctor
Master Chieve
I don’t think Gideon is just GONE, though
Master Chieve
There’s still a bunch of unanswered questions about who she is
Master Chieve
I still have many questions
Master Chieve
What did the Undying Emperor DO?
Master Chieve
Who is the Empire fighting?
Master Chieve
Why were people talking about Gideon ten thousand years ago?
Master Chieve
What’s up with the River?
Echo
Yeah, I think you're gonna like the next book. 
Echo
Also, remember that meme from a while back where I said your favorite character would be either Gideon or Camilla? I'm curious, how correct was I?
Master Chieve
I don’t remember that but you were right it’s Gideon
Master Chieve
Camilla was a BIT too dry in personality but she was definitely cool
