She’s kidnapped at the beginning of the book from her home in Scion London, then taken to a penal colony (Sheol I) via train and blindfold, and forced to work as a slave in this new society of the Rephaim.

It took me so long to even grasp it, which is a testament to Samantha Shannon’s imagination. The scope of the world in The Bone Season is breathtaking. For Paige is a dreamwalker, a clairvoyant and, in the world of Scion, she commits treason simply by breathing.Ī full Goodreads synopsis can be found here.
