The Bone Season
Samantha Shannon
Fiction SH196b
The year is 2059. Paige Mahoney is working in the criminal underworld of
Scion London. Her job: to scout for information by breaking into
people’s minds. For Paige is a dreamwalker, a rare kind of clairvoyant —
and under Scion law, she commits treason simply by breathing.
It is
raining the day her life changes forever. Attacked, kidnapped, and
drugged, Paige is transported to Oxford — a city kept secret for two
hundred years, governed by an otherworldly race called the Rephaim who
seek to control clairvoyants for their own purposes. Paige is assigned
to the care of Warden, a powerful Rephaite. He is her captor. Her
trainer. Her natural enemy. But if she wants to regain her freedom, she
will have to get close to him, to learn something of his mind and his
own mysterious motives.
The Bone Season introduces a compelling
heroine discovering her powers in a world where
everything has been taken from her.
