I read mostly UF and PNR books and I’m use to the werewolves, vampires and other creatures that go bump in the night be on the sexy side. Harris’ narration and Bishop’s writing really made me feel connected to Meg. She had me crying for Meg when some of the shape-shifters were mean to her and at the times when she was scared. And there’s not much of a pause when she changes scenes so I found myself confused in a few spots but once I got the hang of her narration it was all good.

It took me a few chapters to get into Alexandra Harris’ narration but only because I felt like her male voices were not deep enough. But after Carmel at Rabid Reads told me I HAD to listen to it because it was AMAZEBALLS I knew I had to move it up my reading pile and decided to go with the audio book since I had one credit left on my account. I’ve had Written in Red on my TBR list since I saw how much Jen at Red Hot Books loved. The Others teeth! Bishop has created a wonderful and complex world that I can’t wait to get more of. Written in Red is my first Anne Bishop experience and WOW! This is not your usual story with fluffy and sexy shape-shifters.

Yet a stronger instinct propels him to give Meg the job. First, he senses she’s keeping a secret, and second, she doesn’t smell like human prey. Shape-shifter Simon Wolfgard is reluctant to hire the stranger who inquires about the Human Liaison job.

Meg’s Controller keeps her enslaved so he can have full access to her visions. Enter the world of the Others in the first novel in New York Times bestselling author Anne Bishop’s thrilling fantasy series: a place where unearthly entities-vampires and shape-shifters among them-rule the Earth and prey on the human race.Īs a cassandra sangue, or blood prophet, Meg Corbyn can see the future when her skin is cut-a gift that feels more like a curse.
