Marked in Flesh (The Others #4)
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…
Reviewed by: Rabid Reads.MARKED IN FLESH set out to be the defining installment in the entente between humankind and the terra indigene, and being somewhat familiar with Anne Bishops predilection for carnage, I knew full well that no cast member was going to come out on the other side unscathed. This book was astonishingly successful in its aim; however due to its very nature the format needed to be altered to incorporate more POVs and less one-on-one time which in turn led to a slight decrease
Update January 13, 20154.5 claws and teeth starsMan that was good! I practically snorted this.Marked in Flesh is WAYYYY better than the last installment. We get lesser (view spoiler)[Meg meltdowns (hide spoiler)] which were seriously getting on my nerves and more of the things that have only been roiling in the surface in the past 3 books. Full review to come closer to the publication date.---------------------------------------------Update January 11, 2016Whatta surprise, yey ARC. Woot!
When I read the first and the second books, I think I read them both in a week. LOL. Then, I swore to myself that when the third book came out (A YEAR AND SOMETHING AFTER I READ THOSE TWO), I would wait awhile before I got my claws on it. But what did happen? Desperate Kathe read the third book right after it was released and now what? I'M GOING TO DIE UNTIL THIS IS RELEASED. Ps: There's been a week and some hours since I haven't touched a book :( I think it's crazy me talking here.

"I didn't wake her up this morning. She woke me." He turned on the computer. Everyone who lived in the Green Complex was getting an early start this morningand everyone was so quick to blame him...Rest of excerpt here. Interesting... Meg is already important figure in this war since she was catalyst
I love this series.Love love love everything about it.Meg is special and endearing and wonderful. Simon is too, but with sharper teeth and claws.I don't think I've ever read a book that made me so anxious for what was happening to the characters. There were three distinct parts that actually made my heart pound faster. Especially nearing the end there was just this overwhelming sense of dread building up with each page turned. I don't know how Bishop writes this way or so well and the only
Absolutely riveting from start to finish, I just cant get enough of The Others series.This is a world where the mythical, paranormal and magical powers rule the world. Theyve co-existed and tolerated the humans time and time again but as history has shown the humans are a greedy lot. It seems the humans greed and self-worth have once again gone to their heads. They have slowly and methodically plotted against The Others. The Others havent forgotten the past, I guess it comes with such longevity,

Interpretation Supposing Books Marked in Flesh (The Others #4)
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.

It's time for me to say what everyone else who read this is thinking: What the hell, Anne Bishop? Four books and not even a kiss? You're a sadistic woman!I mean, come on! I'm all for the slow-build of a romance, but this is going too far! We need to start a petition or something!Oh, but Meg's so innocent and Simon's a wolf. I don't care! They are totally in love - get to it!The other problem I had with this book was that there were too many POVs.
