ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A USA Today Best-Selling Novel, and one of the Best Books of 2019 according to NPR, the New York Public Library, Amazon, BookPage, Shelf Awareness, BookRiot, and Bustle WINNER of the 2020 Crawford AwardFinalist for the 2020 Hugo, Nebula, and Locus Awards "Unlike anything I've ever read. " ―V.E. Schwab "Lesbian necromancers explore a haunted gothic palace in space " ―Charles Stross "Brilliantly original, messy and weird straight through." ―NPR The Emperor needs necromancers. The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman. Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead nonsense. Tamsyn Muir's Gideon the Ninth, first in The Locked Tomb Trilogy, unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap off the page, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. 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. Of course, some things are better left dead.
Morphological photo-collages: an experiment in digital image manipulationAmerican photographer Gideon Bosker draws on an archive of more than 100,000 photographs captured by him over the past 15 years, systematically deconstructing and reconstructing the images by manipulating their raw files to generate novel sequences and heavily layered compositions.

The gifted artist Gideon Kiefer makes his debut with painterly work in this book. Kiefer's inspiration comes from his grandfather's art books that he read as a child, with prints of work by masters such as Rubens, Caravaggio and Repin. He selects and reinterprets details that intrigue him. Small additions, such as handwritten text or small anecdotes, betray a piece of the personal content hidden in each work, just as they expose the artists' growing concerns about the current climate crisis. The text is by cultural journalist Eric Rinckhout. "Gideon Kiefer’s work balances on the cusp between beauty and horror, tradition and trash, sweet memories and apocalyptic visions, encapsulating his unwavering belief in the power of art and the solace of beauty. He wields his brush, waging war against darkness." - Eric Rinckhout Published to accompany an exhibition in Cultuurcentrum de Werft in Geel (Belgium) from 15 January to 17 March 2022. Text in English and Dutch.
