Marked by P.C. CastMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Marked is the first book in the House Of Night series. Zoey lives in a world where vampires exist and she is Marked by a tracker in front of nearly everyone at her school. When all of her friends hear the news that she has been Marked, they abandoned her. She has to move in to the House Of Night school.
She will be required to take a course in Vampyre Sociology 101. The course will teach her what she needs to know about being a vampire. Zoey is a new vampire called a fledgling. It takes four years to become an adult vampire. Fledglings are rarely allowed to leave the House Of Night school because they will die if they are not with an adult vampires most of the time.
Zoey meets some new friends at the House Of Night school. Zoey learns that she has an affinity for all five of the elements. Each of her new friends all have a affinity for one of each of the five elements. Zoey having an affinity for all five elements is a first in vampire history. Stevie Rae, Damien, Erin and Shaunee, her new friends, make up her circle.
Aphrodite the High Priestess in training invites Zoey to a meeting with the Dark Daughters and her human boyfriend Heath finds her there at the meeting. Zoey takes over the meeting with the help of her circle. Neferet sees everything and takes Aphrodite’s title from her and gives it to Zoey. Heath tries to get Zoey to go back home with him. He does not know that she cannot go with him because she will die if she does not spend most of her time with adult vampires.
I just loved reading Marked. It is one of the best books that I have read in a long time. The House Of Night books are the ones that have gotten me hooked on reading about vampires. P.C. Cast & Kristin Cast make all the characters Zoey, Stevie Rae, Aphrodite, Erin, Damien and Shaunee stand out and come alive. They make you wonder if maybe they are real vampires out there in the world somewhere.
