Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted October 10, 2014 Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 10, 2014 We are very pleased to welcome author SAMANTHA SHANNON Attending Sunday 3.00pm - Female Characters in Fantasy Fiction Panel - a panel discussion exploring gender and genre with authors Laure Eve, Zoe Marriott and Samantha Shannon. 3.45pm-4.45pm - Signing The year is 2059. Nineteen-year-old Paige Mahoney is working in the criminal underworld of Scion London, based at Seven Dials, employed by a man named Jaxon Hall. Her job: to scout for information by breaking into people's minds. For Paige is a dreamwalker, a clairvoyant and, in the world of Scion, she commits treason simply by breathing. It is raining the day her life changes for ever. Attacked, drugged and kidnapped, Paige is transported to Oxford - a city kept secret for two hundred years, controlled by a powerful, otherworldly race. Paige is assigned to Warden, a Rephaite with mysterious motives. He is her master. Her trainer. Her natural enemy. But if Paige wants to regain her freedom she must allow herself to be nurtured in this prison where she is meant to die. The Bone Season introduces a compelling heroine and also introduces an extraordinary young writer, with huge ambition and a teeming imagination. Samantha Shannon has created a bold new reality in this riveting debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timecake Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 This has made me ridiculously happy! Met Samantha at LFCC Winter last year when I hadn't heard of Bone Season or even read the book. Now I have read it, I can finally talk to her about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
