[edit] Biography
Davis wrote the Dragons in our Midst series comprising four books: Raising Dragons, The Candlestone, Circles of Seven, and Tears of a Dragon. The sequel series, called "Oracles of Fire", has so far comprised Eye of the Oracle and Enoch's Ghost. Two books in this series have been announced but are yet to be published: Last of the Nephilim and Bones of Makaidos. Last of the Nephilim is scheduled to come out sometime in July of 2008.
He has written several other books, including Spit and Polish for Husbands (AMG), The Image of a Father (AMG), and four books for the Arch series: The day that Jesus Died, The story of Jesus' Baptism and Temptation, The Story Of The Empty Tomb, and Jacob's Dream.
He is also currently writing a trilogy for Zondervan called "Echos from the Edge": the first book will be called Beyond the Reflection's Edge, the second is Eternity's Edge, and the third is Edge of Chaos. This first book is scheduled to come out on May 1st, 2008. The second book is scheduled for release in October, and the third sometime in 2009.
Some people may wonder how seemingly random kids got reviews inside the cover of the Dragons in our Midst series. The answer is the message forum on his site, dragonsinourmidst.com . His loyal fans/forum members are asked to participate in receiving a pre-published, manuscript copy of his upcoming book. The publisher has the ultimate say in whose review stays or goes, but it is a great opportunity for his readers to have their name in his next book.
His work has been compared to J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy and C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia. There are many different books in the series. The author is a Christian and has many scriptures taken out of the New King James bible. In Eye of the Oracle there are three books in one. The First book takes place in the beginning of time. The next book takes place in King Arther's reign, and yet another book takes place in our time of day.
Bryan Davis lives with his wife Susie and their seven children in western Tennessee.
