kindle edition

i read the entire sweep series a few years ago, which is now one my favorite series so i decided to try this series out as well, i just recently bought a kindle and got chalice of the wind (the first balefire) on it, which i thought was a very good book, finished it last night and was really excited to read the next one, come to find out they only have the first and third books of this series on the kindle so im really hoping they decided to make a kindle version of this book soon so i can continue the series.

BALEFIRE

THIS IS A GREAT SERIES. IT IS ABOUT TEEN WITCHES. I REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK.

Witchy and FUN

This series just seems to get better! I loved the first one in this series and this second book continued that love. The drama starts at the very beginning and it continues through till the end of the book. I love how the author (Cate Tiernan) switches the perspectives of each chapter. Sometimes a chapter will be about Thias, another about Clio, or another about another character. They change frequently and it was so well done that you can tell quickly who you are reading about. I loved this book so much!

The twins

This book was a lot better than the first one. We learn some more things about the twins past and their line and the coven. Plus someone is trying to kill them but who?

Witchy series part 2

This is the second book in the Balefire series by Cate Tiernan (author of the very good Sweep series). In this sequel, Thais and Clio (identical twins who found eachotehr in the first book) get to know eachother better. Thais moves in with Nan, their grandmother, and Clio. By working a little magick, Nan now has legal guardianship of Thais. Things start to heat up, literally speaking, when Clio and Thais try to do spells together and end up being thrown across the room the first two times, and setting their house on fire the third. They try to figure out what's wrong with this while the twins are getting magically attacked. Someone must be trying to kill them. But who? The next book is A Feather of Stone due out in November. I can't wait!
