Oracle: A Dragon Urban Fantasy (Dragon Oracle Book 1)

Oh I know I'm going to love these books...I'm so glad I found this series...y'all are some kinda wonderful.. I hope you continue on with your fun characters.. I'm enjoying this tremendously!! Thank you!

This is basically a novella that introduces or opens up the series. I have to admit that if I didn't have Kindle Unlimited & the series wasn't all already out, I'd be pretty annoyed by the "to be continued" ending. If you're paying directly, there are boxed sets available which may be cheaper than buying the individual books. It's hard to review a story that's really only just begun in this 13 chapter intro, but it looks fairly promising at least. There's a little bit of a newbie vibe to it, I guess because it's apparently a new genre for them? The authors clearly believe that minimum wage should be a living wage as it's mentioned 3 or 4 times by the protagonist 🙄 (economics 101: raising minimum wage decreases the number of jobs available, increases the amount of work the workers have to do, & raises prices on the goods & services that use them - - which means those workers making more $ are having to pay more $ for their groceries, etc, which means they're not really going to be making more) So, some minor annoyances, but not enough to put me off from checking out book 2 at this point. Content issues: *nothing sexually explicit, *violence not excessive or overly graphic, *fewer than a dozen uses of h---, *fewer than a half dozen uses of God's Name in vain, sadly & unnecessarily, but at least not as curses, fwiw

Jada captures your attention right from the start. It's one of those books that's hard to put down once you've started. You find yourself needing to know how Davie is doing and what is going to happen next. Awesome storyline.

This was a decent start to the series but the length (short) didn’t allow enough character development and world development. The characters didn’t develop strong relationships either, so there was something missing in the interactions.

This is a well-written story that does a good job setting up this series. The characters are well developed and likable. The plot is well paced. The story ends well but on a cliffhanger. I look forward to reading the other books in the series.

Davie, a barista & artist, has had visions for as long as she can remember. Her parents died when she was very young & she & her sister, Mickey, were moved around from one set of foster parents to another & none of them were pleasant. When they discovered Davie had “bad dreams”, they were moved again. Davie had seen several psychoanalysts, & finally found one that helped her with medications. But now the visions were back. One day at work a group of 3 young men come into the shop & Davie felt a connection somehow. When one of the men touched her arm, an upsetting vision emerged & she quickly left work. The man followed her & gave her his card, telling her that anytime she needed to talk about her visions, to come see him. After an upsetting event, she did go to his place, which was actually a mansion. He explained that b/c she was having these visions that foresaw the future, she was a seer which is very rare now. He explained that he was from another realm & that he was not what he seemed & offered her his help. He told her that with her abilities, other more evil forces would come after her. Was he being honest with her or just trying to scare her? It wouldn’t be long before she would find out.

This was a good series introduction. Quite a bit of action, a good amount of character introduction, some magic and other races like dragons, etc. I enjoyed this book and recommend it and am glad that it is part of what looks to be a great series.

WARNING: Cliffhanger! This ends with a fairly big event hanging open, though the lead character is not in immediate danger. Davie is working a minimum wage job as a barista, so she can create her art, when she is suddenly thrust into a world of visions, dragons, and an upcoming battle that might just put the world in danger! A fairly decent urban fantasy, in which our protagonist is a seer- she’s had visions forever, but they’ve been controlled before. It’s a fairly quick read, being only the first installment in a nine book series, and is very fast paced- which means we don’t get a whole lot of background story in this book. If you enjoy urban fantasy with lots of action… and dragons of all kinds, then this may well be right up your alley!

If you love dragons, action and feisty women, then you have to read this book. So cool to find out Davie was not loosing the plot, but can see the future. Loving Mallory and Bron, especially with Bron being a dragon. Hope that they get Davie's sister back soon and that Davey can get Bron to listen to her warning from her vision. So looking forward to reading the next book in the series and loos like my weekend is booked to read 😍😍

Any books with dragons is always a yes for me. That being said I was a little bit disappointed with this book, I did enjoy it enough that I will continue reading the series, however if I didn’t have Kindle Unlimited and needed to buy the next book probably wouldn’t. The writing style is very casual, the dialogue between characters has quite a bit of banter which has made me laugh a few times which is always a bonus. The biggest reason why I found it a bit disappointing is that I don’t feel invested in the story or the characters.

It's a good storyline and novel concept but I found it very difficult to get into. It is well written and with good characterisation but for some reason just didn't "take". I shall not be reading any more of this series.

Enjoyed this book. One of a series, I have read the entire series, and thoroughly enjoyed every book. Davie is a sear, although you might think it would be nice to see the future, you certainly wouldn’t in Davie’s world of supernatural. Get ready to be taken into a strange world with sexy dragons and evil creatures of the supernatural world!

Gripping storyline believable protagonists immersively detailed backgrounds recommend series to anyone who loves fantasy of dragons and magic
