This week I'm waiting for:
Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder (Healer #1)
Release Date: 20 December 2011
Laying hands upon the injured and dying, Avry of Kazan assumes
their wounds and diseases into herself. But rather than being honored
for her skills, she is hunted.
Healers like Avry are accused of
spreading the plague that has decimated the Territories, leaving the
survivors in a state of chaos.
Stressed and tired from hiding, Avry is abducted by a band of rogues who, shockingly, value her gift above the golden bounty offered for her capture. Their leader, an enigmatic captor-protector with powers of his own, is unequivocal in his demands: Avry must heal a plague-stricken prince—leader of a campaign against her people.
As they traverse the daunting Nine Mountains, beset by mercenaries and magical dangers, Avry must decide who is worth healing and what is worth dying for. Because the price of peace may well be her life....
