Shannon announced the news on Twitter this morning, reiterating how pleased she is to have another chance at telling the story.Īs I say in the article, I’m really pleased to have this opportunity to re-approach the books as a screenwriter. It’s also very exciting to be able to re-approach the novels as a screenwriter,” said Shannon. “TV has come such a long way in recent years and offers rich opportunities for a long series like this one - there’s so much room for character development and expansion on the source material. I imagine that plans regarding the remaining books will depend on how well the series performs, as there was no mention of the other books.

Lunar Park’s TV series will be eight parts. Sequels The Mime Order and The Song Rising were published in 20, respectively. It is the story of Paige Mahoney, a clairvoyant who makes a living stealing information by breaking into people’s minds, in a world where supernatural abilities are illegal. The Bone Season is the first book in a planned seven-part series from UK Publisher Bloomsbury. That deal recently expired, leaving the property up for grabs again. The Bone Season, which was published in 2013, was originally optioned by Andy Serkis’s Imaginarium Studios in a deal with 20th Century Fox. Lunar Park, launched by UK producers Harriet Hammond and Daz Spencer Lovesey, have optioned the book for television. The Bone Season, the first novel in Samantha Shannon’s dystopian supernatural series set in an alternate future, will soon become a TV series from a new high-end drama company in the UK.
