Review

'Into Coraira' was a novella I eagerly looked forward after my complete enrapture with the first novel in the 'Legend of Rhyme' series: 'Elora of Stone'. The simple yet beautiful story had captured my heart and this much anticipated sequel proved to be everything I hoped it would be and more.
After reading 'Elora of Stone' I still had many questions about what happened next as the author did not completely wrap up everything in the first novel nor did she have all questions answered. This second novella was written by Jaime Lee Mann to answer all of these questions and more as well as continue the twins, Ariana' and Asher's, journey on the magical, mysterious and mystical Island of Rhyme.
There is a new threat in this novella: Asgall, the eldest of the Ancients – a groups of powerful sorcerers –, has escaped his imprisonment when the portal, which was opened by the twins to banish Elora, allowed passage between the earthly realm of Rhyme and the dark realm of Darali. Asgall is the father of both Elora and Calla, twins who have been birthed by their mother Freya. His return means that he has the power to unleash the cruellest and most evil of spells and demons, which does not bode well for the earthly realm of Rhyme. The twins, Asher and Ariana, learn more about themselves in this novella as they discover their magical potential and learn to harness their powers to fight for the light side of magic.
The novella is told in third person narrative and present tense as well as by a variety of characters and their perspectives. Light-hearted but still greatly enjoyable, it's exciting and humorous, mysterious and with a deep sense of fore-boding which made the novella a FIVE star.
'Into Coraira' is targeted for a middle-grade/children's audience but I must say I enjoyed the series IMMENSELY nevertheless! I loved its bedtime-story like atmosphere and would often read it just before getting into bed! It is also very short – around 202 pages long – perfect for getting reluctant kids reading!
Congratulations to Jaime Lee Mann on publishing a wonderful sequel in the ‘Legend of Rhyme’ series! I can’t wait for more!

Rating Plan
1 star : Strongly did not like the book, writing and plot was bad. Idea of the book was against my liking.
2 star : Didn't like it, didn't find it interesting or gripping. Seemed to drag on to me.
3 star : An average book. Wasn't bad or good. Everything else was well done. Original idea.
4 star : Like a 3 star but has potential to it as a series or the book grew on me as it progressed and certain scenes captured me. I Enjoyed it and read it in one sitting.
5 star : I LOVED IT! I stayed up late until 3 am. Author is a genius, characters, plot, idea, development, EVERYTHING was EXCELLENT. Nothing else can possibly be said except that its 5 STAR!

Asher and Ariana are back and this time the stakes are even higher than before. A dark villain has awakened and poses a threat to all but fortunately, he is locked out of Coraira, a magical place filled with creatures. Unfortunately, he has figured out a way to get in and cause destruction.

I don't really want to summarize too much of what happens in this book because it can spoil the ending of the first book, Elora of Stone. Needless to say, all of the familiar cast and crew are back including the dopey yet lovable Grimblerod. Into Coraira delves deeper into this fantasy world created by Mann and gives the reader a more rich understanding as to what is going on.

Having just finished the first book, I was naturally left with a lot of questions that I had assumed would be answered in the next book. Thankfully, I was right. But as many questions as Mann answers, she opens up that many more forcing me to press on and pick up book three, but it is a labor of love. I have enjoyed reading these book thus far and continue to feel that they would be wonderful for children to read to open up their imagination. In this book, the realm of fantastical creatures opens up to include unicorns, mermaids, and even dragons!

The ending to Into Coraira is a cliff-hanger of sorts that involves our friend Grimblerod. Up until now he has been a relatively minor character that felt like he was on the outside looking in. After reading the last chapter in this book, I'm glad to see he is about to take on a much bigger role. That's how I felt about the entirety of the books so far. It just feels like Mann is building and building up to a heck of an ending.

If you're looking for a fun and quick read pick this series up - but definitely start with book one. These books definitely build upon each other.
This review is originally from GoodReads.

In book 2, Mann takes the reader deeper into the world. The story picks up right where it left off from book 1, but it takes the reader to Coraira, the realm of magic. We meet magical creatures such as unicorns, mermaids, and dragons. Instead of a quest like book one, the twins learn that they each possess specific magical abilities, but they are pressed for time to learn these abilities before trouble strikes again - in the form of an evil sorcerer who wishes to wreck havoc on the realms. And additionally, there is a ton of family drama (I didn't say which family/families!), which involved a couple plot twists I didn't expect.

Overall thoughts book 1 was a fun, enjoyable, and action-packed introduction into the world of Falmoor, but book 2 takes things up a notch in intensity, and the ending will leave young readers reaching for the next book ASAP!
