About this ebook
By any reasonable measure, things are going well.
They are not going well.
The Brazilian government is in the pocket of the logging and farming industries, and their reach extends far enough to threaten everything the pack has built. Sofia's grief is becoming something more than grief. And the mind transfer process that Éloi pioneered — the ability to move a vampire's consciousness into a new body — is about to be used in ways that no-one planned for and that will change the shape of House Trieste permanently.
Then Peter Durham — the one mortal Martin ever truly trusted, the man he turned, the man who has been at his side for sixty years — does the unthinkable.
What follows is the pack at its most ferocious: a coordinated act of revenge across every major city in Brazil, Shae navigating an entirely new body with characteristic determination, and Martin coming to terms with losses he cannot undo and a future that looks nothing like what he imagined.
World of Blood is the most ambitious book in the Trieste Family Series — a vampire military and political saga that began as one man's story and has become something genuinely world-spanning. This is the book where the pack stops hiding. Where the stakes become planetary. Where Martin finally understands that the family he has spent a century building is not just his to protect — it is his to lead.
And where, in the wreckage of everything that came apart, Peggy says the words that change everything.
World of Blood is Book Six in the Trieste Family Series.

About the author
Born in and living in Australia, Mark joined the military upon completing high school. With an engineering degree, working on high-technology systems, Mark travelled the world while advancing his knowledge in science and engineering. Following a simple request from a friend to confirm the 'science' in a fictional military book, Mark realised he was well placed to develop his own first military fiction book in the style of Dale Brown.
Mark soon wondered what it would be like in a world where vampires are real. The Trieste Family follows this simple concept.
