The stunning fourth novel in the New York Times bestselling Bone Season series reaches new corners of Samantha Shannon's richly imagined world.
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.

Samantha Shannon is a fabulous writer
Okay, this may be slightly unfair since I haven't read this Author's Preferred Text version yet. But I've read the original Mask Falling and loved it. Loved it so much that I bought the whole set of the published books AGAIN in the Author's Preferred Text version. These books are so beautiful, it was worth it for that alone! Looking forward to my re-read.
These 10th anniversary editions are so beautiful. The writing is great. This is definitely more of a thriller and I enjoy the world and character development. If you tried these novels in the past and you didn’t find them enjoyable, give them a try again. These editions are edited and have some additional content by the author since she has bettered developed her writing since first publishing.
Came wrapped in plastic to protect the book!
Continuing saga of Paige Mahoney... Sometimes "twists" are a little expected, but still an enjoyable romp of a story. Looking forward to seeing where the series goes next! :)
