Discover the underground world of Parisian rebels and spies in the fourth book of the New York Times bestselling dark fantasy series, The Bone Season.
Paige Mahoney has eluded death again. Snatched from the jaws of captivity and sent to a safe house in the Scion Citadel of Paris, she finds herself caught between factions that seek Scion’s downfall and those who would kill to protect the puppet empire.
The mysterious Domino Program has plans for Paige, but she has ambitions of her own in this new citadel. With Arcturus at her side, she embarks on an adventure that will lead her from the catacombs of Paris to the glittering hallways of Versailles.
As Scion widens its bounds and the free world trembles in its shadow, Paige strives to understand her bond with Arcturus, which grows stronger by the day. But there are those who know the revolution began with them—and could end with them . . .
With its intricate worldbuilding, slow burn romance, and “complex, ever evolving, scrappy yet touching” (NPR) heroine, the Bone Season series shows Samantha Shannon at the height of her considerable powers.©2024 Samantha Shannon-Jones (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Critics' reviews
This series is the best . . . Paige Mahoney has my whole heart . . . Nobody writes like Samantha Shannon!
Keenly imagined . . . Atmospheric and unnerving . . . Once again, the predicaments are complicated and suspenseful, the new and returning characters are intriguing . . . For all its superbly choreographed action and paranormal inventiveness, this is, at heart, a gripping tale of trust and love, valor and sacrifice, and equality and justice.
Shannon expertly blends genres to create a story that is at once a political thriller, a dystopian epic, and a paranormal adventure. This bold series installment will leave fans eager for more.
An intoxicating urban-fantasy series . . . Fans will be calling for more.
Real entertainment. Shannon has continued to build on this imagined world with intricacy, and Paige’s voice comes through to deliver a suspenseful story.
Invokes the tyranny of George Orwell. . . and the mythmaking of JRR Tolkien
An author clearly driven to go deeper and deeper into a unique world [--] many will surely follow her.
A great imagination at work.
[A] must-read for fans of criminal escapades . . . With the recent release of revised editions, now is the perfect time to start The Bone Season before the next three books are released.
Epic in every sense of the word, a dystopian drama set in a future version of London… [Shannon’s] worldbuilding is next-level good.
Thrilling . . . A tantalizing, strategic setup for the next installment, which has all the ingredients to be a knockout.
