THE SONG RISING (BEFORE TITLE:BLOOD OF A DREAMER)

Book ID/图书代码: 03635012B54376

English Summary/英文概要: After a bitter argument with Warden, Paige Mahoney finds herself in the dark, dangerous world of Scion Paris, where the voyant terrorist cell Red Pierrot has lured her into its clutches. David Culpepper has always claimed to be on Paige’s side, but it soon turns out he has ulterior motives. Paige finds herself subjected to agonising experiments as Red Pierrot tries to learn the secret of etheric projection, which only the blood of a lucid dreamer can reveal. Meanwhile, in London, Zeke Sáenz narrates the story of Warden’s relationship with the Grand Inquisitor’s assistant, Scarlett Burnish, and of the voyant underground railroad. The voyants plan to evacuate the community to the freedom of America — but even America can’t stand against the Buzzers.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 與Warden大吵一架後,Paige Mahoney發覺自己正陷入黑暗危險的,由‘Scion’掌控的巴黎城裡。恐怖分子紅皮埃羅正誘她入夥。David Culpepper一直說自己站在Paige這邊,其實,他有自己真正的目的。Paige發覺自己已經厭惡了紅皮埃羅的實驗。事實是,紅皮埃羅正試圖尋找乙鈦投射的秘密,這個秘密只有“魯希德夢想家”的血才能找到。同時,Zeke Sáenz透露了Warden與大審查官助手Scarlett Burnish的關係,還有瓦楊人地下鐵的秘密。瓦楊人計畫將自己的社區送往自由的美國,但美國抵禦不了嗡嗡的蜂鳴聲。

It goes hell-for-leather, all poltergeists and grisly murders and pitched battles in the catacombs of Camden (Sunday Times)

Language as rich as a figgy pudding, the best terminology in the genre and gripping, edge-of-the-seat plotting to boot (Daily Mail)

Thrusting readers back into the world of Paige and a more detailed journey through future London. The novels are hugely imaginative ... Part Hunger Games dystopia, part urban fantasy (Independent on Sunday)

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 (Independent)

The Mime Order is the second book, and is, if anything, more accomplished and imaginative than The Bone Season. I am clearly not the target audience, but, crikey, I’ll be second in the queue for Book III ...With a satisfyingly "a-ha" denouement, and some of the best fight scenes I’ve read in donkey’s years, I’m left wondering where Paige and Shannon will go next ... Wherever she does go, I will follow (Scotland on Sunday)

Shannon has continued to build on this imagined world with intricacy, and Paige’s voice comes through to deliver a suspenseful story (Washington Post)
