Hey guys!!! Today is my stop for The Firelight of Maalda book tour hosted by Virtual Author Book Tours. I have for you a review and giveaway!! Ok let's get started!...

Chalice and her group leave Barenthren to travel to Portalis.  There she and her friends discover the beautiful city, its people, its history, and its secret that has been kept hidden for thousands of years.  During their stay, they learn that Dar’Maalda has the firestone and that he plans to use it.What is the firestone and what does Dar’Maalda plan to do with it?  What are the Naezzi?  What does the title, The Firelight of Maalda, really mean?  And … what is the secret of Portalis, the secret that has been guarded so jealously for so long – so jealously, that many have given their lives to protect it?In The Firelight of Maalda, the second novel of the trilogy, The Legend of the Raie’Chaelia, you find out.  It is a tale of intrigue and wonder where two opposite worlds collide in an explosive journey that leads Chalice and her friends to the dark islands lurking just beyond the horizon of Ielieria, where the Firelight of Maalda sits … and waits.

As you know I was apart of the tour for the first book, The Raie'Chaelia by Melissa Douthit , and I absolutely loved it! Well...this book is just as great! :) I loved getting reacquainted with the characters first of all. The relationship between Chalice and Jeremiah is one of my favorite book relationships...man they are just too cute! Also with the sequel comes much more adventure along with many challenges along the way. The book picks up where the first book left off and is just a joy ride from there :). I am definitely loving this series and I am hoping that you will give it a try and if you haven't already you should read the first book, The Raie'Chaelia which I reviewed here. Melissa Douthit is a really great writer and I can't wait for more!!! Another 5 star review!
