THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER IS BACK

Scion introduces James Islington's first ever sci-fi novel in an unmissable new series following the story of Azure, the cybernetically enhanced survivor of a mysterious explosion that killed his best friend as he's embroiled in a secret underworld of organised crime and world-changing technology - complete with the breathless pace and jaw-dropping twists readers know and love from TikTok phenomenon The Will of the Many, now in development for film with Sony.

My job, when you think about it, isn't so different from a lot of people's.

The more old-fashioned crowd do still get hung up on the 'killing people' part of it, I guess, but that's a them problem: it's been perfectly legal to take out lifers for ages. Besides, once ultrawealthy morons realised they had a way to live forever - limited resources be damned - there was only ever going to be one genuinely practical deterrent.

So, sure, I have to deal with a tonne of boring planning. Inconvenient hours. Some pretty awkward face-to-face interactions. And like most of us, I'm really only clocking in to try and crawl out from beneath my debts. But someone's got to do it.

Luckily, my genetic compatibilities make me really, really good at doing it.

Still. This next job . . . I don't know. It's something I haven't had to deal with in years. Kind of the opposite of my regular duties. Strange, that it got thrown my way.

I'm sure it'll all go totally fine though.

Fusing the futuristic dystopia of cyberpunk cityscapes like Neuromancer and Blade Runner with the explosive action of manga masterpieces like Ghost in the Shell and Attack on Titan, this cinematic sci-fi thriller will enchant fans of all the classics of the genre - new and old - from Isaac Asimov to Squid Game.
