Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

5.0

 I thought the first book in this series was mind-blowingly epic, but this one takes the cake.

I can tell you that this book is written in 1st, 2nd and 3rd perspectives but that's not going to matter. Experiencing the elegance in the authors masterful writing abilities is going to be like nothing you've read before.

Harrow wasn't one of my favorite characters from the first book, but this book changed my perspective on her as a person. As we discover what it really means to be apart of the Emperor's team, we also get a deep dive into her childhood, and the events that shaped her.

Once we hit the 75% part I about fell out of my chair. Exactly what I was hoping for happened, and it was epic, amazing, all the keywords. But the ending left me in wtf land. Now with the announcement of a 4th book in this series, I'm just reeling at all the possibilities for where this story is going to go.

Tamsyn's necromancers are A+, one of the best renditions I've ever come across. The darkness in the world building, the multi-dimension aspects, the political intrigue, all of it, so fantastic. This book lacked no where.

You're going to love this book if you like different from the norm scifi, sarcastic characters, double crossing, and the strange and unusual.
