Win a day at Andy Serkis’ Imaginarium Studios!
Samantha Shannon’s writing career is only just getting underway but that didn’t stop Bloomsbury describing the launch of her debut novel, The Bone Season , as “the most exiting global publishing event of 2013”.
Shannon’s dystopian debut novel, which has already been optioned for the big screen by Imaginarium Studios, is the story of Page Mahoney; a young woman stuck deep in the criminal underworld. The novel takes a particularly dark turn as Page is kidnapped and forced to adapt to a new life of imprisonment. Shannon described the book as something that fans of dystopian literature from 1984 to The Hunger Games would enjoy.
