Nona the Ninth

About “Nona the Ninth”

Nona's city is under siege, and zombies are returning. Despite the chaos, Nona longs for a birthday party. She lives with her family, works at a local school, and enjoys beach walks and meeting dogs. However, Nona is different—six months ago, she awoke in a stranger's body and fears she may have to give it back. The city is crumbling, with a monstrous blue sphere looming on the horizon. Blood of Eden forces have surrounded the last Cohort facility, waiting for the Emperor Undying. They want Nona to be the weapon to save them from the Nine Houses. Nona desires an ordinary life with her friends, but she knows nothing lasts forever. Each night, she dreams of a woman with a skull-painted face. This is the 2022 novel by Tamsyn Muir.
