Mycroft Canner is a convict. For his crimes he is required, as is the custom of the 25th century, to wander the world being as useful as he can to all he meets. Carlyle Foster is a sensayer—a spiritual counselor in a world that has outlawed the public practice of religion, but which also knows that the inner lives of humans cannot be wished away.

Story
Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a museum, a midden, an asylum, a prison on a world that is ever more alien to humanity. Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is Stefan Advani: rebel, outlaw, prisoner, survivor.

It's been centuries since the robots of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools; centuries since they wandered, en masse, into the wilderness, never to be seen again; centuries since they faded into myth and urban legend. One day, the life of a tea monk is upended by the arrival of a robot, there to honor the old promise of checking in. The robot cannot go back until the question of "what do people need?" is answered. But the answer to that question depends on who you ask, and how.

1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization.

With no water, no air, and no native life, the planet Gora is unremarkable. The only thing it has going for it is a chance proximity to more popular worlds, making it a decent stopover for ships traveling between the wormholes that keep the Galactic Commons connected. If deep space is a highway, Gora is just your average truck stop. The Five-Hop is run by an enterprising alien and her sometimes helpful child, who work hard to provide a little piece of home to everyone passing through.

You can't militarize space. This one rule has led to decades of peaceful development of space programs worldwide. However, increasing resource scarcity and a changing climate on Earth's surface is causing some interested parties - namely India, the North American Union, and the Sinese Federation - to militarize. The discovery of a strange artifact by Dr. Alayna Wong precipitates a crisis. What appears to be a hitherto undiscovered comet is soon revealed to be an alien structure on a cometary trajectory toward the sun.

Two hundred years ago, aliens invaded Earth. A violent war followed. The enemy won. Some of us escaped, most of us didn’t. On Proxima they flourished - the invasion forgotten. On Earth we floundered - the horror began. Their world is advanced, peaceful, and secure. Our world is broken, savage, and overrun. A new invasion is coming. A hunger that has swallowed half the universe. They don’t care which planet we live on. They want to end us all. But where there is life, there is hope. And where there is hope, there are heroes. This time, vengeance will be ours.

Best one yet?
It’s a crazy thought but I think this is my favorite book of the series. Of course, that would mean that both book 1 and book 3 are in my top 10 list of all time. Book 2 was so satisfying to have answers from book 1. This one rises from off the shoulders of those two books. T.Ryder Smith seems more involved in this one, too. A really excellent job by him.

Narrator change
Like others, I was disappointed by the change in narrator. Not just disappointed, angry. However, by the end of the book this narrator feels right. And one of the most prominent changes of accent ends up making sense.

Audacity if Ideas
Still high from Ada Palmer induced euphoria, which T Ryder Smith helped to elevated to potent level! Now I need a way to calm down.

the best in the series so far
I feel like this series keeps getting better. The narrator has grown on me a lot.

the density is very dense
thick with learned references and archaic phrasing, yet still am I drawn along, still hoping for Mycroft and Brave Achilles to mitigate the destruction of humankind…
will read another, but only because the first three didn’t cost me a credit.

The Insanity of Anonymous
I felt the book's title was a misnomer. While battle - at least in the eyes of those surrounded by a perpetual peace was a factor in the story, I felt war played a light part. Mycroft's vulnerability - the visions - the crying - the vomiting over small things were hard to read. He always seemed so strong and wise. His deterioration added a flavor to the narration - as if his descent into madness was a physical representation of the world he lived in.
Four books in and I still don't know what side is truly wrong. Although If I was born in the times depicted I would proudly be displaying a bullseye above my heart.

Disappointed
At the end of book two we were left hanging with a world on the brink of war.... Book three didn't move the plot along much. It's still entertaining, and well written. I just feel like my time was wasted.
