Marked in Flesh

A Novel of the Others, Book 4

By: Anne Bishop

Narrated by: Alexandra Harris

Fourth in the "flawless" (The Reading Café) New York Times best-selling series from the author of Vision in Silver.

For centuries, the Others and humans have lived side by side in uneasy peace. But when humankind oversteps its bounds, the Others will have to decide how much humanity they're willing to tolerate - both within themselves and within their community....

Since the Others allied themselves with the cassandra sangue, the fragile yet powerful human blood prophets who were being exploited by their own kind, the delicate dynamic between humans and Others changed. Some, like Simon Wolfgard, wolf shifter and leader of the Lakeside Courtyard, and blood prophet Meg Corbyn see the new closer companionship as beneficial - both personally and practically.

But not everyone is convinced. A group of radical humans is seeking to usurp land through a series of violent attacks on the Others. What they don't realize is that there are older and more dangerous forces than shifters and vampires protecting the land that belongs to the Others - and those forces are willing to do whatever is necessary to protect what is theirs....

Great Book

Loved this book ! Ready to start the next in the series. Anne Bishop is a new Favorite Author...

Humans go ferral

Lots of angst, anger and action. Others attacked unmercilessly by hate groups. The elders fight back. Meg and Simon become closer.

Anne Bishop is a phenomenal author

Love the humor between The Wolves and the humans. Not as much of it in this book but great drama too.

Love This Series

This is a really good book in a great series. I look forward to the next book.

Still enjoying

I am enjoying this series with its changing characters. The events are having an effect on the characters; they are developing in response to the actions in the plot. That’s rather rare in my experience. It’s more usual for characters to only respond emotionally to changes in circumstances, not change and add new depths to their personalities. It takes a real good author to include that in a series. Most definitely recommended.

Can't wait for another, but...

Is,this,the end? It was a good plot with all the string characters, but a little darker than previous ones. I hope it's not the end, but If so like,the end of the book.

Just Ok

Not as good as the previous books in this series. I'm still finishing the series since I'm so far along.

No Cliffhangers here

First of all, I love Anne BIshop's the Others Series because of the unique and very interesting POVs that the Others present. You know they are a totally different species and you know that they can eat you. But the author really made me see things from their perspectives (YEAH, HUMAN STUPIDITY is ETERNAL).

Yes. There are times in this book where the listener would get really angry at annoyed at those HFL sympathizers especially for hurting other people and the Others. But you also get times where you really feel touched about Other-Human interactions. Particularly, those in which they are cooperating.

So basically, this book retains all the qualities and elements you loved in the first three books. 1.) Very funny human-Other interactions 2.) Villains Getting their comeuppance 3.) No cliffhangers and 4.) the book ends in a hopeful note

So Go and Read/Listen to this story!

Another Great Book

I have waited so long for this booka and it didn't disappoint. The Elders were a great POV addition to the story. There were parts where I felt as though I wanted more of the original characters but I do understand why Anne wrote the story like she did. Cannot wait for the next book! 😀

Better and better can't wait for the next book.

Anne Bishop and Alexandra Harris are a perfect match. Save a place for this series in your permanent library.
