So a while ago I read a fantastic dystopian fantasy called "The Bone Season," by a new author named Samantha Shannon. Her first book. It was about an alternate reality where clairvoyants exist and are brutally prosecuted by a British governatorial system called Scion. The protagonist winds up snatched off the streets and soon discovers some awful truths, etc... anyway, so fun. Couple days ago I discovered a sequel had come out called "The Mime Order," which I read in one day (staying home and doing nothing else). These are clearly VERY well thought out books with excellent world building (and the author conveniently included a glossary and maps in the back of this one). Gonna go ahead and encourage anyone who enjoys dystopian literature with a fantasy bent to check this out. I read the initial book has already been optioned for a movie, and with good cause.. it's pretty fascinating (although, I expect Hollywood would merrily suck away the last vestiges of originality it had in it). I'd have to say it's a bit like a cross between the Hunger Games and Neverwhere, with elements that parallel some Christian beliefs mixed in (there are similarities to angels and devils, but it's not nearly that simple).
I've obviously really taken to this world and would love to see it attain the popularity of previously mentioned books, so I thought I'd mention it here so others could check it out if they wished (... also, sorry if I've already raved about it. Searched turned up nothing so I assumed I hadn't, but sometimes I fail at the internet).
