This was a nice filler while we all eagerly awaited The Song Rising . It brought me right back into the clairvoyant underworld of Scion London. It was interesting reading about Paige's past a little more and how she got the name Pale Dreamer. I really hope Samantha does this for some of the other characters as well.

A good setup for these characters and the story and world. So excited to see what this series is all about!

This novella I accidentally stumbled upon. It was part of The Bone Season (for me. Every copy may not be like this.) and I read it after TBS (The Bone Season) personally, you don't have to read this one first. TBS explains everything very well. But, if you want to know more about Paige/ The Pale Dreamer, I recommend you read this.

I read this after reading [b:The Bone Season|17199504|The Bone Season (The Bone Season, #1)|Samantha Shannon|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1516752880l/17199504._SY75_.jpg|19248070] - mainly because it was at the end of my copy of that book. I wish I'd read it first because it explained why Paige felt such loyalty to The Seven Seals along with giving some more insight into how the syndicate worked. It's a short book but does add to the reading experience.
