Ink and Shadows

De: Rhys Ford

Narrado por: Greg Tremblay

Kismet Andreas lives in fear of the shadows.

For the young tattoo artist, the shadows hold more than darkness. He is certain of his insanity because the dark holds creatures and crawling things only he can see - monsters who hunt out the weak to eat their minds and souls, leaving behind only empty husks and despair.

And if there's one thing Kismet fears more than being hunted - it's the madness left in its wake.

The shadowy Veil is Mal's home. As Pestilence, he is the youngest - and most inexperienced - of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, immortal manifestations resurrected to serve - and cull - mankind. Invisible to all but the dead and insane, the Four exist between the Veil and the mortal world, bound to their nearly eternal fate. Feared by other immortals, the Horsemen live in near solitude, but Mal longs to know more than death, war and famine.

Mal longs to be...more human. To interact with someone other than lunatics or the deceased.

When Kismet rescues Mal from a shadowy attack, Pestilence is suddenly thrust into a vicious war - where mankind is the prize, and the only one who has faith in Mal is the human the other Horsemen believe is destined to die.

No es lo que esperaba

Creo que es la primera vez que leo un libro en el que los supuestos protagonistas son los personajes que menos salen O_o

sad ,funny, Dart

I like the book The tortured soul of kismet the love interest of war and death

Awesome beginning to a new series

This was a great read & I need the next book now :D No there isn't any romance, but there is a lot of possibilities; Mal/Kismet and Death/War. There was a lot of world building in this book. There was betrayal of the highest order. I see a huge war coming between the 4 horsemen & the rest of them.

Mr. Tremblay made this even more enjoyable. It was easier to follow the POV's because he had very distinct voices for everyone. I can't wait for the next book in this series as I really need to know what happens next.

detailed and ...

this story is very detailed and imaginative. I don't think it's for everyone. There is a lot of gore, pain, drug use and addiction. It's really not a romance, but it does seem like an opening into many relationships, romantic or otherwise.

Heavy on PNR and almost otherworldly. It's based in America mostly, but with an immortal and fae veil that intertwines with the mortal world. I love what Rhys did with the Four Horseman and Hope, Peace, Faith and Charity.
I'm really curious to see where that will go and how the 8 will play against (or with) each other.

good stuff

I really enjoyed this book, I loved the subtle relationships I thought the chapter's where written with nice description of characters and themes.
