About this listen

Bloomsbury presents The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon, read by Alana Kerr Collins.

A stunning new edition of the second novel in the bestselling Bone Season series with gorgeous new cover artwork and updated text, by the bestselling author of The Priory of the Orange Tree.

Paige Mahoney has escaped the secret prison city of Oxford. Now a fugitive in London, she nurtures a new taste for revolution.

Oxford may be behind her, but the Republic of Scion is undefeated. As Scion turns its all-seeing eye on Paige, she is forced to return to Jaxon Hall, her charismatic and brutal employer, to keep her foothold in the underworld.

But Paige will bow to only one now, and not even Jaxon will stop her exposing the corruption in the syndicate. As she plots to with the fabled Rose Crown, both sides of an ancient conflict seek her talents for themselves.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I was gripped by this series because I really enjoyed the unique magic system and the sheer variety of gifts that it produced. This book I liked more than the first because of how well written the high stakes situations were crafted. The delicate balance in power dynamics, lies, and alliances kept me engrossed and the end of the book had my heart pounding. The romance side of things is a bit lacking for me, I just don’t feel the tension between them the way I should but it’s better in this area than book 1. The performance for the audiobook was outstanding with very difficult voices done incredibly well!

High stakes written well. Couldn’t stop listening, had to find out what happened

Absolutely loving this voice actor genuinely the best I’ve ever heard. Brilliant story made even more so by the narrator.

Amazing voice actor

As a huge fan of *The Bone Season*, I have to say the Audible edition is absolutely fantastic. Samantha Shannon's novel brings a refreshing twist to fantasy, diving deep into power dynamics and the fear of the unknown, which feels really relevant and thought-provoking.

The narrator truly makes this book come alive. Her ability to switch between different voices is so seamless that it's easy to tell who’s speaking just by her tone. She gives life to all the characters, and it's quite cool how she can switch between female and male voices so easily. I even found myself becoming quite attracted to the voice of one of the Wardens.

Listening to *The Bone Season* on Audible felt like being transported into another world. The narration adds so much depth and emotion to the story. Whether you're already a fan or new to the series, you should definitely give this Audible version a listen.

While this book does provide a lot of background for new readers, I'd still recommend starting with the first book to fully appreciate the rich world and complex characters that Shannon has created.

I am obsessed with this series - very unique fantasy! And FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE
