I was the only one at book club who liked Gideon the Ninth. So it goes.
GtN amusingly sets up and then mostly ignores the standard YA team configuration. There are eight houses, each with their own theming. They have standard colors, modes of dress, cultural emphases, and personality types. Each house specializes in a form of necromancy, and it is implied that the cavaliers' off-hand weapons vary similarly.
This lines up with Hogwarts houses, Divergent factions, etc. People love to sort themselves by color, Myers-Briggs type, zodiac sign, humor, etc. Presumably someone has already made a crosswalk that aligns two The Locked Tomb houses with each medieval humor or takes each of the 16 Myers-Briggs types and assigns them to the 8 necromancers and cavaliers, extrapolating each of those to the entire culture despite the problems of doing that with the ones who appear at Canaan House.
And then, Gideon being Gideon, this is a mostly ignored bit of world-building rather than a central theme of the story, despite the structure of the lyctor trials and the explicit inter-House competition going on. Most other books would use this as the scaffolding for the entire story, and in fact some of the characters are inclined in that direction. Gideon of course tries to learn as little as possible about how the different forms of necromancy work, nor does she want to learn about a House of poets, historians, etc. She pays more attention to cavaliers' off-hand weapons.
Some TV or movie executive must be salivating at the idea of having a The Locked Tomb series and already has designs drawn up for merchandise for each House. Online quiz to identify your House and social media icons! Buy the T-shirt, hat, wall poster, etc. for your House! A theme park land outline to sell to Disney, Universal, or Cedar Fair! Get the whole set of TLT Funko Pops!

My setup keeps evolving
We have the Admech side, ordered and squared
And the faithful Sororitas side, more "cathedralic"

A friend of mine got some Discworld jigsaw puzzles for Christmas and he recommended them to me knowing I'm a big Pratchett fan, and looking for something new to do I decided to get one. And wow. Not to sound like an ad, but the Discworld Emporium knows how to present their stuff.
The care just on the packaging was amazing. The Ankh-Morpork post office stamp, Vetinari's stamp next to it!
The city watch seal
Then the puzzle itself with the box and the card
I'm definitely going to be buying more things in this store!

Simmers, I can't believe it! I just opened my first Etsy Shop after months of work 🥺 My Sims 2 Neighborhoods edits are now available in prints! 💚
I have carried out the entire creation process with love 🥰 I wanted my babies to look as good as they deserve, and I have been testing until I find the best result ✨ These are some improvements:
✅ Changed characters composition to fit A4 and A3 sizes, so you can find cute frames easily 🎁
✅ Color and quality optimized for printing, edited to achieve vivid colors and greater sharpness 🔍
✅ Materialized by laser printing on Color Copy paper of 250 gr., which gives the final touch ✨
A simple like 💗 helps me a lot! Hope you visit and enjoy! ✨
