A Touch of Death by Rebecca Crunden
4.0
4.5 stars
The book started a little off. Confused, however, I continued reading for I was very curious about Nate, why he was imprisoned and hateful of the kingdom his father love so much that he is a close friend of the king. I was also curious about Cat, about the kingdom, the king, the infection and their day to day lives. The narration is good and it somewhat gives me an old-fashioned or historical vibe. Maybe because the way the couples are pre-destined to be married and how dictatorial the king is in the kingdom. Nevertheless, the story is good. you will learn everything that happened as you read along and get invested with the characters. You will be pulled into their post-apocalyptic dystopian world where Nate and Cat are on the run from the king after their possible infection and after what happened to Thom. It also has romance, mystery, action and suspense. I got bored in the middle chapters but picked up when Cat was in danger and Nate saved her from his old friend. I look forward to reading book 2 of The Outlands series. Thank you for the author who gave me a copy to review a wonderful, unique story.
