Shannon expands the world of her Bone Season series in this pedal-to-the-metal fifth instalment . . .The stakes are high, the pace is rapid, and Shannon’s gift for evocative prose makes the shadowy streets of Venice come alive . . . Series fans will be thrilled

Review quote:
A masterclass in page-turning prose. The Bone Season has become a must-read staple in the fantasy genre. Samantha Shannon’s exceptional worldbuilding, riveting plot, and endearing characters prove to be a successful combination—and one only she could have pulled off quite so skilfully.

Review quote:
Impressively multi-layered . . .As the series’ scope and the implications of the war against Scion expand, Shannon’s narrative style reads more action-thriller than fantasy. Paige’s powers as a dreamwalker are rarely used here, but when clairvoyance is at play, the story shines . . . this series still has plenty of fight left
