This was weird and fun, takes a bit of patience to follow the convoluted narrative but definitely worth it.

Honestly, I loved the first book in this series. It was a pretty obvious YA mystery thriller. But the characters were fun and the magic system had an interesting twist. Plus the high magic/ scifi combo added a little extra flavor. Over all, I would recommend it. This book, not so much. The story isn’t really confusing it just feels unnecessarily convoluted. The switches in perspective of the story teller just don’t feel that well written and don’t seem to add much. I respect the author trying to make it new and fresh, and I think the idea was fine, the execution just wasn’t there this time.

Incredible :)

this is the unreliable narrator trope done absolute justice, tamsyn muir is a genius and i will read whatever she puts out. also the narrator, as for gideon, is Fantastic!!

A challenging yet wonderful story where the payoff is more than worth the journey.

A brain bending adventure with high re-readability that further develops Tamsyn Muir's universe of Gideon the Ninth and the place of the Nine Houses within it. Highly recommend. Moira Quirk is a genius with voices.

The dialog was really slow. DNF

Love this series

Great listen, the narrator is fantastic, her consistent voice acting of the myriad of character is impressive and really help you get into the book. As for the book, the story is really entrancing but beware of the strange and mind boggling narration. It's part of the book strong points tho. Trying to unravel what happened, the true from the false, reality from illusion.

The first person writing is deeply frustrating and makes the book so much harder to follow. as good as Gideon the Ninth is, is how mediocre Harrow the Ninth is.

I was confused in places, but it didn't matter. Thrilling story and excellent characters. I was disappointed with the ending but I'm drooling for the 3rd book. When I heard it wasn't coming out until 2022 I almost cried. If your a fan of this genre, this is a must read series.
