Book Recommendation: Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

Hello nerds! Welcome to March's book club recommendation, Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir. Listen in as we talk about space cavaliers, bone necromancy, and the deathless emperor. 

But first: we try yet another absinthe cocktail. And yet again we warn you we didn't like it. Like at all. But for reference, and if you too like pain, here's the recipe:

3/4 oz absinthe

3/4 oz elderflower liquor

3/4 oz Lillet blanc

1 dash London dry gin

3/4 oz lemon juice

garnish with a lemon twist

While this is supposed to be a corpse revivier -- used to help hangovers that coffee just can't cure -- I'd leave all of those ingredients in your bar and settle for an Irish Coffee instead. But that's just me.
