Scion introduces #1 New York Times bestseller James Islington's first ever sci-fi novel in an unmissable new series filled with deadly assassins, dark humour, and world-changing technology - perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl and The Murderbot Diaries.
KILL OR DIE . . . WHAT WOULD YOU CHOOSE? 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.
In a world where the rich live forever and the poor die young, Azure is an assassin trained to kill the richest of them all - until he's hired to protect one of them instead. The question is: when you're drowning in debt, how far is too far? Fusing the dystopian morality of cyberpunk with the explosive action of anime, Scion is a fever dream you can binge in one sitting.
James Islington is the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Will of the Many and The Strength of the Few (the Hierarchy series), as well as the Licanius Trilogy (beginning with The Shadow of What Was Lost). He has sold more than 2.5 million books, and his work has been translated into 17 different languages. He lives on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia, with his wife and two children.
