Who is Marcus Finch? And The Indigo Spell Giveaway!

Posted In: Giveaway, Misc., News


The Indigo Spell coverCan you believe that The Indigo Spell will be hitting shelves on February 12th!?!? If you are unfamiliar with The Indigo Spell is it book three in the Bloodlines series by Richelle Mead. It’s a spin-off of her highly popular Vampire Academy series. (On of my favorites!) Book one is Bloodlines then The Golden Lily!

Bloodlines Website | Bloodlines Facebook Page

In the aftermath of a forbidden moment that rocked Sydney to her core, she finds herself struggling to draw the line between her Alchemist teachings and what her heart is urging her to do. Then she meets alluring, rebellious Marcus Finch–a former Alchemist who escaped against all odds, and is now on the run. Marcus wants to teach Sydney the secrets he claims the Alchemists are hiding from her. But as he pushes her to rebel against the people who raised her, Sydney finds that breaking free is harder than she thought. There is an old and mysterious magic rooted deeply within her. And as she searches for an evil magic user targeting powerful young witches, she realizes that her only hope is to embrace her magical blood–or else she might be next.

In The Indigo Spell we meet Marcus Finch….. but who is Marcus Finch?

  • Is he competition for Adrian for Sydney’s heart?
  • Is he an Alchemist? An ex-Alchemist??
  • Is he good? Evil? A Warrior of Light?

    I do believe I remember reading that he’s an ex-alchemist. I can’t wait to read more about him, But I really like her and Adrian together…

    I think he’s an ex Alchemist who is going to somehow help Sydney
    Thanks for the giveaway : )

  8. Marcus Finch is a former alchemist. I wonder if he’s going to be a good guy or a bad guy.

    Ex-alchemist – but nothing other than that! Maybe a love interest for Sydney?

    I just finished Bloodlines and am starting The Golden Lily!

    Thanks,

    No idea! I wonder if he’s someone we’ve “met” already? I’m excited to find out who he is.

  18. I love Adrian and I think its time he gets the girl. So, I have no clue but I don’t want him to competition.

    Marcus is probably going to end up being the start of a revolt with the alchemists. That’s my guess and a possible love interest.

    I’m not really sure. I haven’t started reading Bloodlines yet but I’m really excited to start reading the books. I guess I’m putting it off because my experience with Vampire Academy was that I felt like I’d go crazy waiting for the next book.

  29. I have no idea how Marcus Finch is, my best guess is he is an alchemist? So long as he dosen’t mess up my Sydney/Adrian ship he will be alright by me =)

    I have no idea who Marcus Finch is, but I believe (hope?) that he’s an ally. He helped Clarence, do he can’t be that bad can he?

    Even with two clues as of today I still am clueless. It might help if I had read Golden Lily. Better get right on that. :)

    Definitely not a love interest. I think he’s older. And I think he’s sort of an alchemist rebel who knows the ways of alchemists, but doesn’t believe they are right.

    SO excited to learn more about Marcus! How the heck did he get out of the Alchemists and what’s with the indigo tattoo he used to cover the golden lily?!?!?
    Heidi recently posted..RT Convention 2013My Profile

  38. I think he is the child of a Moroi and an Alchemist. How scandalous!

    I was originally thinking an alchemist, but then I think maybe a vampire. I really don’t know at this point, but am looking forward to finding out. :)

  47. Christina T

    A new love interest for Sidney, a dhampir most likely!

    I think Marcus Finch is a former alchemist with magical abilities like Syd. I think he might end up being a mentor for her.

    I’m still not clear on who Marcus Finch could be, but I can’t wait to find out! I SO love Richelle Mead’s world of Vampire Academy, and I predict this third book in her Bloodlines series will be where Adrian and Sydney’s relationship really heats up as it was at this point for Rose and Dimitri’s relationship. =D

  52. Amanda D

  58. Karen Maldonado

    Probably an ex-alchemist, but I know HE won’t be any better than Adrian! ;)

  61. Tamara

    I don’t know who he is, I’m guessing he is an ex alchemist who knows a bit of magic.
