I read this one post apocalyptic book a few years ago about a treasure hunter/ruin surveyor that was being hunted and found refuge in a fortified town. The whole book was about him getting revenge on the group hunting him and adapting to life in the town. There were these crystal trees that would shoot crystal shards at you and if you were hit by one it would grow in your body until it consumed you and turned you into a tree.
