There’s a malevolent blue sphere floating in the sky, zombies and Blood of Eden attack and their leaders want Nona to become a weapon. In the midst of all this, her city is falling apart. She’s always known her body doesn’t belong to her, but the more she learns the more afraid she is to give it up when the time comes.

Thank you to Tordotcom for sending me a copy of Nona the Ninth for an honest review! ![]()
