Eye of the Oracle finally was returned to our library, and I checked it out right away. It was so good; I finished it in five days! It was really cool to see the history of dragons all the way from the flood, to the tower of Babel, to King Arthur’s reign, and all the way up to the present time.
At first when I realized it wasn’t going to be about Billy, Bonnie, Walter and Ashley, I was kinda disappointed, but when I finished reading it, I wondered why I was even sad in the first place!
Elam, Sapphira, Acacia and Paili’s life down in Hades was exciting but also sad to read about. The saddest part was how Sapphira had to stay in the mines for so many years without a single person to talk to. And being separated from Elam that whole time must have been awful! Without having the one and only true God to pray and talk to, and to be comforted by, I’m sure she (or anyone else, for that matter) couldn’t have ever made it. Eye of the Oracle is a truly amazing book, and you are a truly inspiring and masterful author, Mr. Davis.
But then I made a mistake. I should have known that the person who had Eye of the Oracle would check out the next one, but I didn’t think of it until it was too late. I know I could’ve requested it from another library, but I guess I didn’t think of the at the time, so I just waited. And waited. I think I felt a little bit of the pain that Sapphira felt. 🙂
Anyway, I finally got Enoch’s Ghost, along with the last two (sorry other person that was reading them). Enoch’s Ghost was amazing, Last of the Nephilim was exhilarating, but just like I said, every book gets better as I go, and The Bones of Makaidos was an incredible book to end an incredible series!
The Bones of Makaidos was so good, I read it in two and a half days, one of them being a school day! From beginning to end, it took me into it’s powerful grip and wouldn’t let me go. I basically had to be dragged to the table for meals, and it kept me awake at night until my eyes literally could not stay open. To tell you the truth, that was the only thing bad about the book, it wouldn’t let me go to sleep!
The ending was so beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes. Of course, not tears of sadness, but of pure joy and happiness. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mr. Davis, for writing this amazing series! Your books have encouraged me to have a deeper and closer relationship with God than any other book ever has, other than God’s word itself. I so want to be as spiritually strong as Billy! When I get in arguments with my siblings or parents, and I am tempted to do something not so Godly, I say to myself, “What would Billy do?”. 🙂
I am SO excited for Song of the Ovulum! I can’t wait for it to come out! I have a question. I hear that it will come out July 1st, but when do you think it will get to my library? Right away? Hopefully, but if not, I will just have to afford to wait. I think I can do that. Maybe. 🙂
I have always enjoyed writing, and I hope someday to write books as well as you do. And who knows, maybe you’ll read my books someday. I would love to have a great author read my books. And maybe, hopefully, I can meet you someday. 🙂 Once again, thank you so much! Praise the Maker for making such gifted Christian authors, such as you, who use their gift of writing to praise the Lord and exalt His holy name!
