Hey everyone! This week I was reading Touch of Power. I have not yet finished, and this is what I read so far. Here is a summary.
Avry has a gift. She can heal the sick and injured by assuming the diseases into herself. Healers are hated amongst all town folks because they are rumored to have spread 'the plaque'. 'The plaque' is a sickness that can kill someone within a few months or years from when they got the sickness. If you catch a healer like Avry (with the special gift) and turn them in to jail, you get a lot of money. They kill the healer there. One day, Avry is caught and turned in. A band of rogues rescue her, but on one condition: she has to heal their friend. Later on, she finds out that their friend is the same prince who actually created 'the plaque'. He has caught it himself and they want Avry to heal him. She says no. This prince has not only created 'the plaque' but also destroyed many kingdoms. She does not want to heal someone like this.
That's all I read! Sorry. But I'll write about it next weekend. I won't promise, because I might finish it before that. :)
