Ninefox Gambit is an epic science fiction novel by Yoon Ha Lee. 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 taken over by heretics. Cheris’s career isn’t the only thing at stake. If the fortress falls, the Hexarchate itself might be next. Cheris’s best hope is to ally with the undead tactician Shuos Jedao. The good news is that Jedao has never lost a battle. The bad news is that he went mad in his first life and massacred two armies, one of them his own.
