Dear Mr. Davis,
I cannot possibly express the joy and excitement that I feel now as I hear the coming of “Song of the Bard.” It is almost incomprehensible how much it pained me (almost physically) that the series would not be continuing. How I can thank you enough for announcing another book, I do not know. But I do want you to know that I have read through your series (both “Dragons in Our Midst” and “Oracles of Fire”) approximately one hundred fifty times. I love the way you mix so many aspects of different novels to create your own unique masterpieces. You combine excitement and adventure with fantasy and myths, a tint of intriguing romance, and a base of pure faith in the Lord all arising from an every day lifestyle that anyone can relate to. You have inspired me in so many ways one of which being to write. I decided to “take a stab at it” and I found that this career choice is full of imagining, brainstorming, and thinking “outside the box.” And I think I speak for everyone who has read your books that you can lift spirits and send us out into the world fully charged through your writing. I am not able to count how many times life has weighed me down, but have found comfort in reading about these life-like characters overcome obstacles and my faith is renewed that I can too. Thank you.
I should probably introduce myself. My name is Alex, and I received the honor of meeting you at a Barnes and Noble Bookstore on Briargate Blvd and N. Academy Blvd in Colorado Springs, CO while you were on your tour. From the moment I finished your first book I added, “Meeting Bryan Davis” to my list of goals, so you don’t know what a blessing that was to me.
I think your finest work in that series personally is “The Eye of the Oracle.” I find it amazing how you switched perspectives maybe three times in a chapter, but you still kept the storyline easy to comprehend. The concept that I most enjoy throughout the series is the dragons: the pure ones. The only problem I have is that frequently mentioned in “Eye of the Oracle” is the fact that there were about fifteen dragons before the flood. My count amounts to eight. I love learning and reviewing about the dragons, and I have written down everything I have found on Martinesse, Carboni, Alithia, Chayil, Zera, Ruwach, and Maven but I would love to know more. Just as an idea for the books, would you include more on them and there adventurous dragon lives? Another idea (just a suggestion) you could write a book containing stories on the life of each individual dragon or some of the battles and adventures they had. I think that would be amazing!
Thank you for listening to this meager message and I pray for the advancement of your ministry daily. Thank you further for standing out and writing pure, Christian stories that are so painfully hard to come by these days in the midst of all the junk in the world.
Sincerely,
Alexander B.
