I really enjoyed The Raie'Chaelia.  If I had to classify it into a genre, it would be a difficult thing to do but I think it would be fantasy with elements of science fiction.  It has a fantasy setting but then there are things in the world that relate back to science.  In other words there were some technologies in the book that had scientific explanations to why they worked the way they did.  I thought that was a really neat aspect to the story.I liked both Chalice and Jeremiah.  Especially Jeremiah.  I'm not really sure why I think so highly of Jeremiah other than he is just a really great guy and an incredibly likable character.  Chalice is quite likable too although she did do a couple of things that I thought were a little silly at times.  The supporting cast were all very cool too.A lot of people had been saying that there was a lot of information dumping in The Raie'Chaelia; while there is a lot of information, I didn't mind it.  I actually quite like books that provide a good amount of information in relation to building a backstory.  I didn't feel that anything was there that shouldn't be and I felt everything was mentioned in good timing.The Raie'Chaelia is definitely a really intriguing story and I had a lot of fun reading through it.  The one thing that bothered me about it was trying to remember all the terminology in the book but it's featured enough that by the end of the book I had managed to get the hang of it.Overall, I definitely enjoyed reading The Raie'Chaelia and I had a little sneak peak at the next book in the series in the back of The Raie'Chaelia and it definitely looks interesting.  I really enjoyed The Raie'Chaelia and I think that any fans of fantasy would definitely enjoy it.
