Resumen del Editor

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

“Deonn expertly weaves together a universe that both shines a light on the pervasive nature of racism and also harnesses the complexity of Black identity within this space. Deonn writes so much more than simple fantasies or Arthurian retellings.” —Booklist (starred review)

The “worthy successor to an explosive debut” (Kirkus Reviews)—the New York Times bestselling and award-winning Legendborn—perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and Margaret Rogerson!

The shadows have risen, and the line is law.

All Bree wanted was to uncover the truth behind her mother’s death. So she infiltrated the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur’s knights—only to discover her own ancestral power. Now, Bree has become someone new:

A Medium. A Bloodcrafter. A Scion.

But the ancient war between demons and the Order is rising to a deadly peak. And Nick, the Legendborn boy Bree fell in love with, has been kidnapped.

Bree wants to fight, but the Regents who rule the Order won’t let her. To them, she is an unknown girl with unheard-of power, and as the living anchor for the spell that preserves the Legendborn cycle, she must be protected.

When the Regents reveal they will do whatever it takes to hide the war, Bree and her friends must go on the run to rescue Nick themselves. But enemies are everywhere, Bree’s powers are unpredictable and dangerous, and she can’t escape her growing attraction to Selwyn, the mage sworn to protect Nick until death.

If Bree has any hope of saving herself and the people she loves, she must learn to control her powers from the ancestors who wielded them first—without losing herself in the process.

This paperback edition of Bloodmarked contains bonus content from William’s POV featuring never-before-seen scenes from Legendborn and Bloodmarked and a teaser to the explosive third book in the Legendborn Cycle, Oathbound.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Fans of the first novel will enjoy continuing Bree's story with Abbott-Pratt's skilled narration. Her engrossing narration and distinct voices for the multitude of characters and their accents keep the listener engaged in the adventures of Bree and her companions." (Melissa Wheelock)

Did not disappoint!!

I was hesitant after reading some reviews that mentioned that the booked hammered on racism too hard or the love triangle was annoying or that Bree was too obnoxiously naive.

I disagree on all accounts! The author walks a fine line between addressing persisting issues of being a minority and weaves it into a beautiful storyline. This IS a Young Adult book so there is bound to be drawn out love tension between the characters. I am super interested in seeing how it all resolves! Bree is annoying in the beginning, but that is how character development can occur. I encourage the reader to stick through it. it's worth it! Can't wait for the next book :)

Great Read

Can’t wait for part 3. This was just as good as the first, kept me engaged

WOW!! Must read! Book 2 on par with book 1

Without spoiling anything I could not put this title down. The storyline is fantastic and I can not tell you how many times I audibly gasped while listening. The narrator does a great job with the fluctuation in voices between characters and the actual plot of the book is just unmatched. Definitely worth the listen!!

This story has me in a chokehold

I love this book. I didn't think I could love a story more than Legendborn, but everything is more intense and now I am waiting for the next part. I laughed I cried this story is beautiful.

Tracy Deonn does it again

I love this series with my entire being. Extremely well written and well preformed. I pulled an all nighter to finish it bc I literally couldn’t stop listening

Absolutely Stunning

Deonn & Abbott-Pratt have stolen my heart and at times my breath. I rarely ever read books more than once; however, as soon as I finished Legendborn and Bloodmarked I could not wait to start them again! THIS is truly the pinnacle reading experience.

An awesome part 2 to a great cycle

The emotions you feel; the twists and turns are awesome!! I pray there is at least 2 more books to come! I could watch these as movies!
