Add a CommentA great read, loved it
Great book. Didn't want to put it down. Looking forward to the next one.
I love the premise of this book with the idea of healers who cure others by taking the injuries and sicknesses of the patient into themselves. Avry was a strong lead though not one of my favourites and I liked the perverted villain that was Tohon. My favourite Maria V. Snyder book is still Poison Study (Valek is just soo drool worthy), but I will definitely be checking out this books sequel when it's released in 2013 :)
This was my first Maria Snyder novel but certainly not my last. Very good! Looking forward to the next book in the series.
Another great book from Maria Snyder. It was enjoyable, and interesting. It was full of adventure, interesting magic, a new world to explore, and a great heroine. I look forward to the next book.
A really good start to the series. Looks promising, I hope it's as good as her others in the fire or inside out.
I like all of Maria Snyder books and this one is a great start to another series. Can not wait for the next book....Scent of Magic!
new series by one of my favourite authors
Found this book in a library in Australia and read it in a single day. Engrossing and well thought-out, Snyder has created a fantastical post-apocalyptic fantasy world struggling to recover from a devastating plague. The central character is a young woman with a singular gift - the ability to magically heal others by taking on their pain - but there are some things even she can't cure... Published under the HarlequinTeen banner, I knew this would be a romance, but I didn't expect it to be such a well constructed story at the same time. Touch of Power comes complete with an epic quest and even a few zombies thrown in for good measure. For a harlequin book, there is plenty of tension but nothing you would have to hide from your kids. I enjoyed the story immensely and look forward to reading the next installment!
