Narrative Concering Books A Chalice of Wind (Balefire #1)

As the author of Sweep, I had very high expectations of Tiernan for this series.

I enjoyed the fact that their true loves were not found as easily as we initially thought. There was obviously something off about their guy, but his betrayal was pleasantly different from Cal's in her previous series.

Fantastic book; compelling, addictive and enjoyable...but I don't think it was her best work. Nancy Holder's Wicca series is very similar and was pubished beforehand, the parellals are uncanny; deaf feline familiars, dead parents and the child moves, old french magicks. But hey, there's a limited amount you can write about that hasn't been done.

I repeat, a fantastic book (better than holder's) but I was looking for something more original. Let it be known that I am hating myself as I write this for betraying this most esteemed author.

Nevertheless, the characters were vivid and the 1st person perspective worked flawlessly.

I shouldn't be so judgemental, I haven't read the others yet and the first seemed like the set-up-book.

Love the french pronunciations. Tye-ees. Love it.

Super quick read - I feel like this could have been a lot better than it was. It had an interesting premise, and could have gone to amazing places if there was a little more substance to it. This was obviously written with multiple sequels in mind, and doesn't really work as a stand alone book - a lot of questions were introduced, but there wasn't really the typical plot with rising action and a climax. We don't know who (or if) someone is trying to kill the twins, where the grandmother

it kept me wondering what was going on. i was not confused. it was told in a way that kept you guessing. i like that.

Really good story. Hard to get into but picked up and took off after a while

Review on Balefire: Book 1: A Chalice of Wind By: Cate TiernanWhat a great book! :) I would recommend this book to anyone who's actually into having a thrill of an adventure. This was a great book. Two sisters who eventually find each other that were seperated. They realized that they are sisters when they are in school because they happened to realize that when they look at each other in class, they happen to think they are looking at themselves. Apparantly, they go to the same school. Imagine

Loved it! 💖 Cate Tiernan is one of my favorite authors. I fell in love with the Sweep series years ago so I knew her other books would b awesome. I love that this book had the same feel of that series. The end of this book sets up the story and I can't wait to read the second

I really enjoyed Tiernan's other work, the Sweep series, so I figured that I'd like this one. That ended up being a rather safe bet as this book has many of the same elements as the other series had. Magic, betrayal in love, forbidden powers... those are just a few of the things that these two series had in common. Not that having similar things makes it a bad or copycat series- it just makes it an almost guaranteed thing that fans of Sweep will like this book.Balefire follows the actions of two

Took me a bit to get into the story. It just wasn't appealing to me at first but once Thais moves to New Orleans and begins sharing opinions on her weird new guardian my interest peaked.Things were hard enough on the poor girl as it was what with losing her father and being orphaned, to thinking she would be able to live with her elderly next door neighbor, and then being whisked off across the states with a guardian she had never heard of, but then once she tries to settle into her new home not
