Publisher's summary

Calla faces charges against her for changing the past. Her use of the Travel Glasses resulted in the creation of two writings that affected the lives of Edgar, the inventor of the Travel Glasses, and Valcas, their prior owner. Now Calla must explain her actions before the Time and Space Travel Agency.

The hearing does not end well. The travel commissioner finds Calla guilty as charged and forces her to choose between two harsh penalties. Despite the risk of becoming lost herself, Calla accepts a dangerous travel mission that may help her find her father. She teams up with a group of talented travelers. While working with them, she soon discovers that she has a special travel talent of her own.

Pursued by the sentient being of white light that's been tracking her father's bloodline, Calla fears her newfound talents may not be enough to protect her and her teammates before they complete their mission.

Deeper insight into the world of travel, & love.

If you could sum up Insight Kindling in three words, what would they be?

Insightful, Love, Heatache

What about Jill Maglione’s performance did you like?

I slipped right into the story with Jill voicing the characters. It felt she reads the story with more emotion in Calla from the first word. She speaks with personality for all the characters along with voice differences such as scratchy or deeper. I really enjoyed the differentiation between them all, making it easy to tell who was talking. She even carried through with similar voices from the first book voiced by a different narrator. Well done. I think I enjoy Jill's narration much more than the narrator of the first book.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes. It's very neat to see the traveling world in this book. We get lots of details of different things with traveling. It did NOT feel like an info dump either. *Bonus* It is the story and it all comes out to help us understand the way of time and space travels. So much to the way of doing things and rules along with people having special abilities to do unique things in traveling. We also find out, at the very beginning, what is after Calla! I'm so glad this book jumped in with details and answers. Thank you, Chess!

With all the great things we learn of the world, we get to see Calla fall in love. Calla doesn't realize it until she's gone and fallen. But she does. This is Calla and Valcas's story of falling in love all over again while they are looking for her father, and stuck in the Fire Falls.

Also, I enjoyed the characters that join to help Calla and Valcas on the mission to find her father.

Any additional comments?

This story is a YA Paranormal read and is a clean story for young readers to enjoy. There is no swearing and barely a kiss is present. I would suggest this story for many young readers. The story is a simple one, a mission to find Plaka while Calla and Valcas seem to be skating around each other while feelings grow. It held my attention as it feels character based here and the characters feel developed in the story and voice.

A thought provoking, exciting trip through time and space

The second book in Chess Desalls' Call to Search Everywhen series, Insight Kindling is even better than the first. I loved it. Not only does Desalls expand on the time travel and the perception of time itself, Calla, the main character, grows immensely. I found her outspoken verbal repartee refreshing and delightful—we're never in doubt as to what her true feeling are about anything. It is also a book of deep inner discovery, of insight into ones own abilities and the courage it takes to follow one's given path.

Taking up where Travel Glasses leaves off, Valcas escorts Calla to answer for two serious travel violations, according to the TSTA (Time and Space Travel Agency). After dodging the deadly Uproars, enduring Valcas' irritating and pompous attitude, Calla faces the charges. It seems that in this world, the TSTA consider themselves infallible, so one is guilty until proven innocent. During her hearing, Calla discovers ominous and selfish motivations on Valcas' behalf as to why he rescued her initially. This adds a delicious dimension to the rest of the book and the development of their relationship.

Because she can't afford the outrageous fine, Calla chooses to join a mission to settle her debt to the TSTA. So, she and Valcas are off, joined by two other "time criminals," to find Callas' father. And the adventure begins, or shall we say continues. While exploring Desalls' clever worlds of Everywhere and Everywhen, prepare to experience an adventure sure to please. I couldn't put it down, and I can't praise this book highly enough. Desalls' characters, the worlds she builds and her quirky approach to time, make this book a must-read for the time traveling aficionado.

MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Fantastic second book in YA Time Travel series

I loved this book. As many questions as it answers, it brings up more questions. new layers of the characters are revealed in this book. there are also new characters. they are all unique. (one character can observe and recall the smallest of details and reenact conversations he has heard- it is amazing) the journey is exciting, and is paced well.

it definitely is making me crave the third one. hurry up with the recording of the third book. I need to know what happens. I need to know the rest of the secrets Valcas is concealing.
The narrator brings this story to life. these two books are awesome. did I mention that I am looking forward to the third one? also awesome cover on this book as well.

Great book two in the series.......book three should be amazing.

A strong book two in a developing series

Any additional comments?

An easy book to listen to which draws you in to the story.
To truly enjoy this book listen to Travel Glasses first. The second book wastes no time with backstory and jumps right into the action. Calla is thrust headlong into a quest with a group of enjoyable partners.
A minor pet peeve of mine is at times some of the future technology doesn't seem to be well thought out. Time travel is possible but a screen projector still has to warm up before turning on. Insight Kindling is still well worth the read.
