Product Description What ancient mysteries lurk behind the amazing stories in the Dragons in our Midst series? Eye of the Oracle takes the reader back in time to the days when dragons abounded. From the era just before Noah s ark, through the battles between dragons and mankind in the time of King Arthur, and to the haunting presence of dragons in our day, this stunning prequel reveals the mysteries that led to the bestselling fantasy adventure that began with Raising Dragons. How did dragons survive the flood? Who helped preserve an ancient evil force that led to the demise of the dragons in the days of King Arthur? What heroic sacrifices kept that evil from exterminating the dragon race forever? If you enjoyed the heart-stopping action and spiritual depth of the first four books in this series, you won t want to miss the astonishing story that began it all. Eye of the Oracle will captivate young and old alike, and it will challenge every reader to search deep within for answers to the mysteries in their own hearts.

  Lizzie November 2, 2008 Recipient bought this Title himself. Remainder of the Series (2, 3 and 4) are gifts from me.
  What happened before Dragons in Our Midst? Now we know! September 15, 2008 And boy, do we get to know it! This is a prequel to beat all prequels. It's almost twice as long as any of the other Dragons in Our Midst books, with more story!
Despite the huge page-count, I whipped through the book with hardly any pause except to do the essentials (Read: "The things my parents told me to do!"). This book is deep, deep, deep. No other way to put it.
I love how Bryan Davis can take Biblical events and tie them to a wonderful story, without making them sound too preachy. He keeps the characters three dimensional, maybe even bordering on a fourth dimension.
Tolkien wrote the Silmarillion to expand his Lord of the Rings, and now Bryan Davis has written Eye of the Oracle for Dragons in Our Midst fans. You can't get much better than that.
Final note: I highly recommend that you read the Dragons in Our Midst series first. This book will be understood better, and you won't spoil the other series by reading the sum-up at the end of Eye of the Oracle.
  The awesome prequel to DIOM! September 12, 2008 Eye of the Oracle is a great book! It clears up the many mysteries of Dragons in our Midst...as the action rages from the flood to the present, every DIOM fan will love this book.
  A Book with Answers August 22, 2008 What happened to Dragons? Did they get destroyed in the flood? Were they killed naturally or were they destroyed over time by men. Did they exist in Biblical times and if so what did they do? All these questions and more are answered in this book. How did King Arthur get Excalibur? Was Merlin a Magical being or was he a renowned Christian. Find all the answers in this book.
  Cool Cool Book! July 25, 2008 I really enjoyed Eye of the Oracle! The story starts from the day's of Noah to modern day. After only a couple of days, I had finished this book! Any fantasy lover will love this book!
