Inked
by Eric Smith
Release Date: January 20th 2015
Bloomsbury Spark
Summary from Goodreads:
Tattoos once were an act of rebellion.
Now they decide your destiny the moment
the magical Ink settles under your skin.
And in a world where Ink controls your
fate, Caenum can't escape soon enough. He is ready to run from his family, and
his best friend Dreya, and the home he has known, just to have a chance at a
choice.
But when he upsets the very Scribe
scheduled to give him his Ink on his eighteenth birthday, he unwittingly sets
in motion a series of events that sends the corrupt, magic-fearing government,
The Citadel, after him and those he loves.
Now Caenum, Dreya, and their reluctant
companion Kenzi must find their way to the Sanctuary, a secret town where those
with the gift of magic are safe. Along the way, they learn the truth behind
Ink, its dark origins, and why they are the only ones who can stop the Citadel.
Eric Smith takes you on a high-octane
fantasy adventure, perfect for anyone who has dreamed of being different… only
to discover that fate is more than skin deep.
