help Ink Exchange FAQ
Who is the main character in Ink Exchange, and what does the tattoo do?
The story follows Leslie, a teenage human whose tattoo connects her to Irial, king of the Dark Court. The mark becomes a supernatural bond that lets the faery conflict enter her ordinary life.
Who is Irial in Ink Exchange?
Irial is the king of the Dark Court and the faery tied to Leslie through the tattoo. His role makes the novel a darker companion to Melissa Marr's Wicked Lovely world, rather than a separate human-only romance.
How does Ink Exchange fit into the Wicked Lovely series?
It is the second published book in the Wicked Lovely series, following Wicked Lovely. The focus shifts to Leslie, Irial, Niall, and the Dark Court.
Is Ink Exchange mainly about the tattoo or about the faery courts?
The tattoo is the mechanism that links Leslie to the Dark Court, so both parts drive the plot. Melissa Marr's 2008 novel uses that bond to explore the cost of being drawn into faery politics.
