Description
The first installment of the trilogy, Ninefox Gambit centers on disgraced captain Kel Cheris, who must recapture the formidable Fortress of Scattered Needles in order to redeem herself in front of the Hexarchate.
To win an impossible war, Captain Kel Cheris must awaken an ancient weapon and a despised traitor general.
Captain Kel Cheris of the Hexarchate is disgraced for using unconventional methods in a battle against heretics. Kel Command gives her the opportunity to redeem herself by retaking the Fortress of Scattered Needles, a star fortress that has recently been captured by heretics. Cheris' career isn't the only thing at stake. If the fortress falls, the Hexarchate itself might be next. Cheris' best hope is to ally with the undead tactician Shuos Jedao. The good news is that Jedao has never lost a battle, and he may be the only one who can figure out how to successfully besiege the fortress. The bad news is that Jedao went mad in his first life and massacred two armies, one of them his own. As the siege wears on, Cheris must decide how far she can trust Jedao - because she might be his next victim.

Spectacular!
This book is spectacular. It challenges gender expectations by showcasing so many women in military leadership roles. Each time I read a new name, I assumed a man, and each time I was PROVEN WRONG it made me that much happier. By the end of the book, I was expecting women and surprised whenever I was wrong.
The casual inclusion of same sex pairings and bisexuality was amazing. It was handled with a tone of "that's just the way it is." Each time I saw a new same sex pairing or an acknowledged bisexual character, it was another small victory for me.
Then we get to the main characters themselves. Dynamic, intriguing, and easy to love (even the mass murderer Jedao, I know... but read the book). I loved Cheris from the very first chapter, when she humanized the Kel and servitor victims of war alike. I adored the servitors. Even the heretic reports had me giggling. Every character was fantastic and faceted.
And can we talk about the math-based world building?! I love numbers and that alone drew me in to be amazed by the rest of the book. The formation effects, using geometry and positioning of bodies or ships to achieve certain effects, is so cool. The fact that certain technology only works provided a certain calendar is neat, too. I loved everything about this world and I can't wait to read the next two books!

Must Read
This is a War Story, Survivor Story, and an incredibly creative SciFi story. Written by a brilliant trans author and narrated excellently.
