'A marvelous and inventive storyteller' Sarah J Maas, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author At Zalindov, the only person you can trust is yourself. Seventeen-year-old Kiva Meridan is a survivor. For ten years, she has worked as the healer in the notorious death prison, Zalindov, making herself indispensable. Kept afloat by messages of hope from her family, Kiva has one goal and one goal only: stay alive. Then one day the infamous Rebel Queen arrives at the prison on death's door and Kiva receives a new message: Don't let her die. We are coming. The queen is sentenced to 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. Aware the sickly queen has little chance of making it through the Trials alive, Kiva volunteers to take her place. If she succeeds, both she and the queen will be granted their freedom. But no one has ever survived. And 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. From bestselling Australian author Lynette Noni comes a masterful and action-packed YA fantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Sabaa Tahir.

A REALLY fun read, and one that I've been waiting for a long time. As soon as April 13th hit, you can bet I started reading. And it was perfect. Kiva's a really great character with layers to her story and personality, and as wonderful as the romance is, it isn't what the story focuses on, which leaves so much room for Kiva and her healing, and her prowess not only with what she does but with survival and staying alive in the prison. It's a real beauty watching her change, and I'm thrilled that this was all I expected and more from Noni.
I haven’t read as great of a book as this one for a long time I truly enjoyed every second of it and the surprises kept coming and coming
I was intrigued by the plot of this book from just the first sentence. Learning the ins and outs of the prison from the inside was a new perspective in a magical world. The Prison Healer really makes you think about the story and where the storyline was going the entire time. There were times when I was thinking about what the end would be and was only on the edge of the actual outcome. Hearing the stories about the royal family and I was skeptical. There were twists and turns I definitely didn't see coming. I very much enjoyed this book and finished it one sitting, The ending left me wanting more and I am so ready to read the second one!
