Recenzii

Shannon has continued to build on this imagined world with intricacy, and Paige's voice comes through to deliver a suspenseful story
Like treasures unearthed by mudlarks, Samantha Shannon's alternative world isstudded with fabulous language...Withasharp eye on the politics of identity, Shannon transports us into a world where the oppressed are pitted against one another in the struggle for survival ...Explosive
Easily the most politically engaged of any of the contemporary dystopian fantasies. Ever since HG Wells'The War Of The Worldsthere has been a slight aversion to looking at the global consequences of such dystopias and Shannon seems to be taking thatwider view. There is so muchintrigue and escapade, character development and imaginationhere . We have four books to go.I am more than willing to wait
A whopper of a denouement. Shannon'sbrillianceis that she is not afraid of change, both for her characters and her setting . The 25-year-old remainsa name to watch
The third book seesfeisty heroinePaige Mahoney take on thedangerousrole of Underqueen, ruling over London's criminal population
My recentshore-side readshave included Samantha Shannon'sThe Song Rising
PRAISE FORTHE MIME ORDER:"A riveting page-turner . She creates a convincing world defined by its own invented logic
It goes hell-for-leather, all poltergeists and grisly murders and pitched battles in the catacombs of Camden
Thrusting readers back into the world of Paige and a more detailed journey through future London. The novels are hugely imaginative ... PartHunger Gamesdystopia, part urban fantasy
A triumphant blend of Orwellian dystopia and China Miéville nonconformity ... Shannon's ability to take classic tropes, such as forbidden love and dystopian societies, and give them a well-knuckled twist is to be admired ... Set to become a trailblazer for young talent
Shannon has continued to build on this imagined world with intricacy, and Paige's voice comes through to deliver a suspenseful story
