My review:????
The Pale Dreamer by Samantha Shannon (The Bone Season 0.5) is set before The Bone Season, but as I didn’t know about this novella until after I had read the first book, and it’s better that way round, I thought I’d review it in this order!
So yes, The Pale Dreamer is set 3 years before The Bone Season, when Paige has just joined the Seven Seals, and is getting to know Jaxom and the others. She doesn’t have a lot of experience in using her powers, and doesn’t know her place in the gang or the underworld yet, but there’s a poltergeist on the loose, and she and Nick go after it.
This is a fun story with extra flavour about Paige settling in to her new role, and getting the name Pale Dreamer!
The Pale Dreamer was published on 6th August 2016, and is available from Amazon.
