Through the Looking Glass: Mad for Trailers! (1): Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder

Mad for Trailers! is a meme exclusive to Through the Looking Glass where I feature book trailers that I am currently either swooning, fan-girling, jaw dropping, or goose-bumping over!

In this edition of Mad for Trailers!, the star of the show is...

Touch of Power by: Maria V. Snyder

Summary from Goodreads:

Laying hands upon the injured and dying, Avry of Kazan absorbs 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 Fifteen Realms, 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...

My Reaction: Goosebumps! This trailer makes the world of Avry and the healers look that much more fantastical and magical. The seriousness of the narrator really brings an epic reality to the plot.

Note: In the trailer, it shows the UK cover for Touch of Power. I don't know why, but here are both the covers just in case you didn't know. Personally, I like the UK cover better. It displays the darkness of the book more clearly.
