Series Volume Number1
SynopsisEnter the world of the Others in the first novel in New York Times bestselling author Anne Bishop's thrilling fantasy series: a place where unearthly entities--vampires and shape-shifters among them--rule the Earth and prey on the human race. As a cassandra sangue , or blood prophet, Meg Corbyn can see the future when her skin is cut--a gift that feels more like a curse. Meg's Controller keeps her enslaved so he can have full access to her visions. But when she escapes, the only safe place Meg can hide is at the Lakeside Courtyard--a business district operated by the Others. Shape-shifter Simon Wolfgard is reluctant to hire the stranger who inquires about the Human Liaison job. First, he senses she's keeping a secret, and second, she doesn't smell like human prey. Yet a stronger instinct propels him to give Meg the job. And when he learns the truth about Meg and that she's wanted by the government, he'll have to decide if she's worth the fight between humans and the Others that will surely follow.

  • The Others series by Anne Bishop

    After realizing I checked out all the books in the series TWICE in the same 6-month period because I enjoy them so much, I decided to add them to my home library. The paperbacks in this series arrived on time and in good condition, a very good financial expenditure. Paperbacks are fine for my needs and I may even loan them to friends. I love reading books on my Kindle but sometimes I want a book to hold. I love the series because the lead character is intelligent but so challenged. It's amazing that the keepers managed to give her enough information to help her escape from them. I like the idea of someone being intelligent enough to sort through images when exposed to her own blood but hate the idea that the keepers were allowed to treat human women only as assets and she was able to escape. I love the idea that there might be Others who can visit retribution on bad guys. I'm grateful that EBAY has these books available through their vetted sellers.

  • One of my favorite series!

    I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who loves to read about shapeshifters, vampires and mystery. It was a fresh new twist instead of the same old same old I've read before. You should try it out.
