4. Cavalier Primarried

We’re looking at Chapters 9-11 of Gideon the Ninth this week and getting to know some of the other occupants of Canaan House! Gideon meets Magnus and the terrible teens of Fourth House, gets a moment alone with her crush in a greenhouse, and takes the chance to try out her duelling skills against the other cavaliers. Then Baily and Kabriya try to tell the difference between 1-star and 5-star reviews (harder than it sounds) and dive into a big chat about queerness in the Locked Tomb series and how it pertains to the world that Tamsyn’s created, the individual characters, and of course, the relationships. We end by discussing this week’s erogenous bone. * SPOILER ALERT * We reference events from GTN and HTN in this podcast, as it’s intended for readers who’ve already finished both books.
