Marked in Flesh by Anne Bishop

5.0

I wanted an "I HATE HUMANS" t-shirt after finishing this edition in the series. They got worse, greedier, more cruel, abusive and murderous. Money, power and control rule their minds and their bodies, sound familiar ? I thought it did, I saw what we do now for money, the destruction as being very similar. Ugly humans.
There are some fascinating new characters brought into the story. The Elders are detailed a bit more and strut their stuff in a big way. The elements come into play and we get to me some sea friends that I loved the descriptions of. I am squeeing with fangirl powers over "Sea" she was awesome. I wasn't thrilled with the new humans, especially one older woman who seems to be everywhere. I don't trust her.
There is great loss, great sadness, terror and heartbreak. ~ Sigh ~Just get your tissues ready and read through it.
My favorite part of the whole book had to be the last chapter. It was the glimpse of possibilities, a beautiful sunrises with clear skies and maybe a new species. I loved it.
