It was kind of hard for me to get into the book at the beginning because it was just a lot of background and not but interesting things going on. Towards the end, however, it got more interesting and has me thinking about buying the second book.

I really enjoyed Kiva as a character. Her strength, and resilience despite her fear was so admirable. She wars internally with herself and still tries to do the right thing. The first twist I didn’t guess but the second one I knew pretty early on. Regardless, both of them have made me excited to see how things play out in book 2! The book tackles some dark topics but does so tactfully and nothing ever felt gratuitous. Also Jaren and Tipp must be protected at all costs!!

I did not know too much going into ‚the prison healer‘ but I was captures from the beginning. Kiva the strong female protagonist who survived for ten years against all odds and stayed a loving person. As the book goes on, the pkot thickens and tension arises. While the book is a bit slow in the middle, the oace quickly catches up again. The plot follows that of a classic fantasy story I would say and it is beautifully written. Even though I had a felling about Kiva‘s true personality, the last lines had me shook. I am thrilled for the sequels and look forward to reading Jaren‘s and Kiva‘s story, whether it is that of a classical fantasy novel or not. Highly recommend to any fantasy lover.
