People were only ever marked with a monster-blood tattoo if they had fought and slain a nicker. The image of the fallen beast was pricked into the victor's skin with the dead monster's own blood.

I've actually seen this in the bargain aisle at Books a Million- I didn't realize the series name was so literal! I look forward to your review.
ReplyDeleteMine deals with sweets rather than beasts.
That teaser caught my attention. A "nicker?"

Ick. I can see lots of kids would be totally engrossed in this though! Or a movie made out of it.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's incredibly creepy. I'd rather not have dead monsters blood anywhere near me. Great teaser!
ReplyDeleteSounds slightly gruesome. Now, are monster tattoos a good thing or not so much?
ReplyDeleteSounds very interesting. I will add it to my list.
