ABOUT THE BOOK The Bone Season, the first of an expected seven book series, introduces us to 19-year-old "dreamwalker" named Paige Mahoney. It is the year 2059. Several major world cities are under the control of a security force called Scion. Paige works in the criminal underworld of Scion London, part of a secret cell known as the Seven Seals. The work she does is unusual: scouting for information by breaking into others' minds. Paige is a dreamwalker, a rare kind of clairvoyant. In this dystopian future, police-state Britain has outlawed clairvoyance, sending all those with "unnatural" powers off to a secret penal colony.
