Synopsis

A dreamer who can start a revolution.

For the past two hundred years the Scion government has led an oppressive campaign against unnaturalness in London. Clairvoyance in all its forms has been decreed a criminal offence, and those who practise it viciously punished.

Forced underground, a clairvoyant underworld has developed, combating persecution and evading capture. Paige Mahoney, a powerful dreamwalker operating in the Seven Dials district of London, leads a double life, using her unnaturalness illegally while hiding her gift from her father, who works for the Scion regime...

This beautiful new edition includes the prequel novella, The Pale Dreamer

Samantha Shannon was still a student when she published the first of her 7-bone cycle The Bone Season set in a gothic vision of future London where humans with a capacity to contact the undead are persecuted for their abilities. This was then followed in the series by The Mime Order and The Song Rising
