Links: My reviews of The Shifter and Blue Fire. Basically, you know it's a fantastic trilogy when my biggest complaint is that I wish there were fewer vowels in the character names. They're that perfect mix of adventure with heart, intelligence, and depth, and I totally love Nya. The plot twists and turns throughout the trilogy, with almost constant action, but it never veers into the realm of implausibility.The world of The Healing Wars is fantastically multilayered and realistic, and the concept of using healing and pain for political power makes this fantasy stand out from the rest.Entire cities are on the brink of destruction, and the lives of Nya's sister and friends are at risk - with Nya (unintentionally) in the center of it all. The stakes are huge, and they're both personal and political.For years, life has handed her one struggle after another, and she has to make multiple heartbreaking choices throughout the books, but she keeps moving forward. If you're looking for a strong and smart heroine to root for, Nya's your girl.And here's five reasons why you should read it!
