Samantha Shannon

Samantha Shannon's The Priory of the Orange Tree splits its epic fantasy across a queendom guarding a sleeping dragon-god and a rival empire that worships dragons as gods, and the collision is what makes it sing.

In The Bone Season, Samantha Shannon builds a 2059 London ruled by a clairvoyant-hunting regime and drops a gifted young criminal named Paige straight into its darkest institution, for readers who want dense, rule-bound fantasy with real teeth.
