Rebellion and divided loyalties in Paris

The fourth book in The Bone Season series places Paige Mahoney in a Paris shaped by competing factions: some seek Scion’s downfall, while others defend its rule. From a safe house in the citadel to the catacombs and Versailles, the setting links underground resistance with the visible power of the empire. The Domino Program has its own plans for Paige, but she is also pursuing ambitions of her own. Alongside the widening reach of Scion, the description foregrounds Paige’s strengthening bond with Arcturus and the question of how closely their lives are tied to the revolution.

Book overview

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.
