The Emperor needs necromancers. The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman. Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead nonsense. 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.

A very entertaining little novel that focuses on a mystery whodunit with quite a bit of action. The worldbuilding was great and sparked my interest immediately. The characters were enjoyable, even if a bit obnoxious at times, with quite a few personalities among them. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 was the fact that the first half just dragged quite a bit. I found it hard to keep interest and the setting in almost every scene was very repetitive. The second half very much helped bring it all back together for me though, with a very descriptive and exciting ending. I definitely plan on rereading it at some point.

I couldn�t get into this book. It was hard to follow and read. I would not recommend this book. I honestly couldn�t even tell you what that book was about.
