A review by ambermarshall
The Healer's War by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough

4.0

Despite the magical elements (restricted to aura-reading and healing with the help of an amulet), the focus in the novel was something rare and new to me: the Vietnam war from the perspective of a nurse. After eating up accounts from the male grunts' POV in novels like The Things They Carried, it was so interesting to get the perspective of a woman and a medical professional on base.
