Tersias the Oracle

A pitiful oracle is tortured by almost everyone. It's heart rending, thrilling, great and awful characters. I read it 3 times and I'm far from a kid.

I am a avid reader of fiction. Be it fantasy, historical, or Christian. I have read G.P. Taylor's other works Shadowmancer and Wormwood. I find his writing to be extremely decriptive; very cinemtic. He is very talented at placing the reader in the middle of the story. He effectively communicates this gifting in Tersias the Oracle. I grew to know London. Even though I've never been there before, I think I just might recognize it if I was there. That is G.P. Taylor's style of writing. I did feel he developed the main characters quite well in this most recent work. I grew to love Malthias (I'm not sure if that is the name for sure. It's been a few weeks since I read it). At first this character is a despicable excuse for a human being, but he soon grows into a respectable decent individual. This is G.P.'s way of communicating God's grace and redemption, and he does quite a fantastice job if I must say. On a seperate note, I did not care for the ending. I rated it four stars since I felt it was too brief and left me with too many questions. Shadowmancer and Wormwood left me feeling that way as well. Nonetheless, all of his books make a good read. I recommend them all!

Review by Mike Doyle I love all of G.p. Taylors books! They are so different then regular fantasy. I love it how I feel like I have been transported to london and I am actually there right a long side the Jonah, Tara and Solomon and all the other characters. I love how G.P. Taylor combines spirits and humans together. Buy this book it was very good. Also if you have not read Shadowmancer or Wormwood I really think you should. Thoses books are really good but they are also different, but in a good way. So its not your average fantasy book but there great ones. Can't wait for G.P. Taylors next one in September: The Curse of Salamander Street: A Sequel to Shadowmancer.

I am so into fantasy and I love G.P.Taylors books. I also love how my first name is the same as his last. If you love Harry Potter, the Lord of the Rings or The chronicles of Narnia you will love this book. Keep it up G.P. Taylor!!!!!
