Rebellion and fragile alliances in a threatened underworld

In this third installment of The Bone Season, Paige Mahoney’s new position as Underqueen puts her in charge of a fractured clairvoyant syndicate in London. She must hold that underworld together while pursuing a secret alliance with her former enemy, Arcturus Mesarthim. The stakes shift sharply with the introduction of Senshield, a technology described as a danger to clairvoyants. The setup brings political control, resistance, and personal trust into the same conflict, with Paige’s leadership tested from within and beyond her organization.

Book overview

Witness Paige Mahoney's underground rebellion take flight in the third book of the New York Times bestselling dark fantasy series, The Bone Season.

Following a fierce battle for the Rose Crown, Paige Mahoney has risen to the dangerous position of Underqueen, ruling over the clairvoyant syndicate of London. But with vengeful enemies still at large, the task of stabilizing the fractured underworld has never seemed so challenging.

As Paige rallies her army of criminals, she continues to meet in secret with her former enemy, Arcturus Mesarthim. Should they be discovered, the fragile alliance with the Ranthen will fail.

But all bets are off when Scion introduces Senshield, a deadly technology that spells doom for clairvoyants. Now Paige must race against the clock to stop her reign ending in blood.

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.
