☼SYNOPSIS
Seventeen-year-old Kiva Meridan has spent the last ten years fighting for survival in the notorious death prison, Zalindov, working as the prison healer.
When the Rebel Queen is captured, Kiva is charged with keeping the terminally ill woman alive long enough for her to undergo the Trial by Ordeal: a series of elemental challenges against the torments of air, fire, water, and earth, assigned to only the most dangerous of criminals.
Then a coded message from Kiva’s family arrives, containing a single order: “Don’t let her die. We are coming.” Aware that the Trials will kill the sickly queen, Kiva risks her own life to volunteer in her place. If she succeeds, both she and the queen will be granted their freedom.
But no one has ever survived.
With an incurable plague sweeping Zalindov, a mysterious new inmate fighting for Kiva’s heart, and a prison rebellion brewing, Kiva can’t escape the terrible feeling that her trials have only just begun.
☾REVIEW
★★★★
Rating: 4 out of 5.
I freaking love this book. I was so invested into the story it’s not about funny how I spent literally hours thinking about it after I finished it.
we are following our female main character, she’s in a prison and she’s the healer (pretty much the title is very self explanatory), but she’s also in charge of I guess healing all of the new prisoners that comes and that’s how she meets our male main character.
they developed this relationship that I felt instantly in love with our male main character was so likable so caring of her and I just wanted to hug him. but this is in no way the only thing that’s interesting about this book because behind story there’s this political conflict that’s going on and we’re being introduced to a lot of different characters that has to do with the story and it has to do with what’s happening outside the prison.
A lot of things happened in this book, so many that you don’t even have time to get bored like there’s always something going on and there’s many cliffhangers so you need to keep reading but none of them compare to the ending of this book because the cliffhanger that this book has made me stay awake for hours thinking about it and THEN buying the second book.
also I really want to mention the friend of the female character I think he was called tipp, I freaking loved him I could cry talking about tipp because he has my heart.
anyways PLEASE read this book, it’s so worth it!
