Last year, Tamsyn Muir absolutely owned the lesbian-necromancers-in-space genre.

You know how sometimes people say, It's like everything you loved about the first book, only MORE. You don't have to read the first book in this series to dive right into the second. I promise I will not describe my dinner in undying detail (it is chicken soup).You know how sometimes people say, Oh, it's okay. I'll be answering questions from 11 AM EDT/4 PM BST/3 AM NZST (sorry mum), so feel free to start posting and I'll get to them after lunch.ĮDIT 7.31 PM GMT: Thank you for all the questions, am taking a break! If I do not eat dinner soon I will die, but I'm hoping to get back to them afterwards - everyone has been enormously kind and funny and there's loads of questions I'm hoping for a chance to answer. I've been doing some freelance game stuff ever since, as teaching plus finishing my third novel doesn't mix. Previously I'd worked at a Blockbuster Video just before Blockbuster got shut down, so I may be the common factor here. I quit teaching last year in order to take on my first games writing job, working for Fogbank Studios (the guys doing the fantastic Storyscape series) but just as I was finishing up on Season One of my game, we got shut down early this year. I'm a graduate of Clarion and have been publishing sci-fi, fantasy and horror short fiction since 2011.

in space, so it is going to be a real pain in the ass when the third book takes place entirely in a haunted gothic Georgie Pie.Īs for me, I'm a Kiwi writer currently living and working in England (the classic 'teacher with a massive student loan' gambit) - I came over here a couple years back, but otherwise spent almost my entire life in New Zealand apart from a brief mistake on my part where I got born in Australia. Its follow-up, HARROW THE NINTH, can be described as lesbian necromancers DON'T explore a haunted gothic space station. GIDEON THE NINTH needs no introduction cos the blessed u/cstross notoriously gave me one for the rest of my life ( Lesbian necromancers explore a haunted gothic palace in space). Kia ora r/Fantasy and thanks for having me! I'm Tamsyn Muir, author of GIDEON THE NINTH (9/19) and HARROW THE NINTH (8/20 - just out!), which constitutes two thirds of the Locked Tomb trilogy published by Tor.com.
