I could literally stare at this gorgeous cover ALL DAY.and once the reader has finished the book and the underlying meaning behind the cover and the name of the book are discovered then everything comes together and the reality of how intense Cyra's world really is. Everything about the cover screams 'AMAZING!!!' The color and the graphics are just breath-taking. The first thing that drew me to Veronica Roth's Carve The Mark was it's remarkably gorgeous and intricate cover. They must decide to help each other to survive-or to destroy one another.Ĭarve The Mark is an deeply riveting sci-fi thriller with non-stop action, heart-breaking betrayal, and an intense survival story that will keep readers flipping pages right up until the captivating ending.Ĭarve The Mark is one of the most highly anticipated books of 2017.and it without a doubt lives up to the hype! I devoured Carve The Mark and cannot wait for readers everywhere to read this fantastic book! When Akos is thrust into Cyra’s world, the enmity between their countries and families seems insurmountable. Though protected by his unusual currentgift, once Akos and his brother are captured by enemy Shotet soldiers, Akos is desperate to get his brother out alive-no matter what the cost.

Akos is from the peace-loving nation of Thuvhe, and his loyalty to his family is limitless. But Cyra is much more than just a blade in her brother’s hand: she is resilient, quick on her feet, and smarter than he knows. Cyra’s currentgift gives her pain and power-something her brother exploits, using her to torture his enemies. Can they reclaim their gifts, their fates, and their lives, and reset the balance of power in this world? Cyra is the sister of the brutal tyrant who rules the Shotet people. While most benefit from their currentgifts, Akos and Cyra do not-their gifts make them vulnerable to others’ control. On a planet where violence and vengeance rule, in a galaxy where some are favored by fate, everyone develops a currentgift, a unique power meant to shape the future.
