In this week’s recap of Chapters 7-8 of Gideon the Ninth, we arrive at the First House and get introduced to some of the other necromancers and cavaliers! And what fun introductions they are. Then Kabriya puts Baily’s linguistics knowledge to the test in a game about the naming conventions of the nine houses, before we jump into a discussion of memes and Internet culture references in the Locked Tomb series—the ones that made us laugh and the ones that made us groan. * SPOILER ALERT * We reference events from GTN and HTN in this podcast, as it’s intended for readers who’ve already finished both books.
