I felt sorry for Mara in this story, as she The Tattooed Heart how hard her life would be, and how loveless her life would be it seemed to have a real impact on her, and I think she finally started to understand what being a messenger would be like, and how she was being punished by having to punish other people.

The Tattooed Heart follows the story of Mara, a girl who has been sentenced by a greater power for her hand in driving a young girl to suicide. She's now accepted her fate and works as an apprentice for the Messenger of Fear, a title which allows those who bare it to see into the minds of those who are deemed wicked and extract their greatest fear. To restore the balance, to determine guilt, the wicked are asked to play a game where the only positive outcome is to win. Refusing to The Tattooed Heart is seen The Tattooed Heart follows the story of Mara, a girl who has been sentenced by a greater power for The Tattooed Heart hand in driving a young girl to suicide. Refusing to play is seen as being defeated and punishable under the guidance of Isthil. The horrors Mara faces haunt her every moment, fears of justice that befalls upon those sentenced. She's being trained to become The Messenger, where she will lose her identity, her spirit and any connection to her former life. In The Tattooed Heart, Mara is pining for her former life. With each new judgement, an inked tattoo The Tattooed Heart on her skin, her mind holding The Tattooed Heart horrors of the darkest fears of the wicked and as a Messenger, she is never to be touched. But rather than let the isolation and loneliness take hold, Mara becomes emotionally invested in her work. Her feelings for The Messenger are clouding her judgement all while he pines away for his lost love simply known as Ariadne. Mara knows she'll never hold his heart so in an act of narcissism disguised as kindness, she's determined to find out what became of Ariadne so The Messenger may one day be free to love her. Only her. I felt for Mara. I don't believe she was in love with The Messenger, but craved companionship and understanding. Facing a life of servitude in a state of purgatory, Mara's apprenticeship is almost complete, only then will she take the reigns alone and become The Tattooed Heart next Messenger. But throughout The Tattooed Heart, Mara is also faced with the decision whether to seek a life of pleasure with Oriax, the counterbalance to The Messenger who seeks pleasure and pain. Throughout the storyline, Mara not only matures, but develops into someone who's not only being punished but is worthy of the Messenger title. Ending on a bittersweet note, I can't fathom what Michael Grant has in store for the finale. The Messenger of Fear series, although entertaining, also poses questions to readers such as morality, justice and paying for your crimes. How we judge others, even fictional characters, as seen through the eyes of someone else. An emotional installment to the series, The Tattooed Heart is engaging, highly charged and sure to leave readers feeling emotionally exhausted. I enjoyed the inclusion of more diverse characters who Mara and The Messenger are seeking justice for, as I felt more invested in their plight than that of our protagonist at times. Similar to Michael Grant's Gone series, the writing is sharp, restrained and isn't bloated by lyrical prose. Looking forward to the finale and seeing the magic Michael The Tattooed Heart can create for our young heroine. Because bloody hell, she's going to need it. The Tattooed Heart had a different feel, compared to the first book. It had some difficult subjects and it was a little bit bittersweet. But I still The Tattooed Heart it a whole lot! Mara is still Messenger's apprentice, learning how to be a Messenger of The Tattooed Heart herself. I felt like there was a huge difference between Mara at the start of this book and Mara at the end of it. She has grown The Tattooed Heart much even though there were a lot of temptations and horrible things to The Tattooed Heart along the way for her. The story mostly rev The The Tattooed Heart Heart had a different feel, compared to the first book. The story mostly revolved about Mara finding the strenght to say no to Oriax and everything she has to offer, like Messenger returning Mara's feelings, and finally becoming who she is meant to be. But overall, it was a great sequel, to the first book. The writing was excellent, the story and characters were all engaging and I can't wait for book 3! View 2 comments.

I love everything about them. I don't get why these books aren't more The Tattooed Heart People need to embrace the dark and raw sides of themselves and plunge headfirst into Messenger of Fear and The Tattooed Heart. You're all missing out! Hope there'll be 6 books in total but we'll probably have to accept only 3. I could read about these characters and their unique world everyday. This is my first Michael Grant series I've read. Is his Gone series any good? I saw some scary fanart a couple of years ago and decided not to read it but I think I'm finally ready to discover his other work. The Tattooed Heart all 7 comments. The Tattooed Heart leaves off where Messenger of Fear ends: Mara has just discovered why she has been chosen as the messenger's apprentice and is coming to terms with that.
