What this book is about
Avry of Kazan is one of the last healers in a plague-ravaged world — healers can cure any disease, but the healer absorbs some of the patient's damage in return. She is hiding, captured, and then pressed into service by a group of men seeking to restore order to a fractured kingdom. Maria V. Snyder's fantasy romance is adventure-first with a slow-building romance and genuinely interesting world-building.
