A good introduction to the world of Bone Season, including our main character Paige and the voyants of the Seven Dials.
Looking forward to starting the main story.
Pretty good intro to the main series. I wish the cruelty of scion was more apparent. Like obviously you know they are bad but I really wanted to see the awfulness of them played out. It was just kinda thrown out there about people being executed on tv? (Idr very well) while she and Eliza hung out. Like I feel like it could have been more impactful if paige was to actually have been present at an execution or at least reacting to it being on the screen. But I get it. That wasn't the project of the book. I just wanted a little more.
