Omega Dragon (Children of the Bard #4) (Bryan Davis)

Omega Dragon

Children of the Bard Book 4

In this final episode of Children of the Bard, Matt Bannister carries the corpse of his twin sister, Lauren, into Abaddon’s Lair, the wellspring of resurrection power. Along with Listener, he hopes to solve the mystery of this sacred chamber and restore Lauren’s life. When he reads from Abaddon’s secret resurrection book, disaster strikes, and he and Listener are forced to seek a different path where they are faced with another catastrophe—an ice storm laced with a villain’s potion that threatens to kill every inhabitant of Second Eden.

In the meantime, Marilyn Bannister seeks a way to enter Second Eden. She must restore the great dragon Clefspeare so that he can battle Arramos, the draconic manifestation of Satan. Arramos has been capturing and killing children as a way to bring God’s wrath upon the Earth, and only Clefspeare is powerful enough to stop him.

Transporting Clefspeare into Second Eden is possible, and only Sapphira Adi, the great Oracle of Fire, is able to open the secret portal to that world. While in the midst of apocalyptic destruction, Sapphira, Elam, Billy, Bonnie, Walter, and Ashley battle Arramos as he tries to thwart their plans and enter Second Eden himself. His goal? Complete annihilation of that world.

Heroes and heroines fight evil in order to save helpless innocents from Arramos as he kills, maims, and destroys. All seems lost against this unholy terror, and their only hope is the restoration of Clefspeare, the Omega Dragon.

Recommended for ages 12 and up.

A Few Testimonials:

“I’m a foster mom and we have had a young man in our home for 3 years and he is very drawn to the dark side. I bought the Dragons In Our Midst the first book for him for Christmas and he couldn’t put it down. He loved it. I purchased the 2nd book a few months ago and he couldn’t put it down.”  – Nicole J.

“I met you at a Christian home schooling conference in Kitchener Ontario and bought all four books of Dragons in our Midst for my 12 year old son. He is having such a difficult time and was not interested in anything in life except video games. He never picked anything at the library except graphic novels and has been so cold towards the Lord.

“I started reading book one to him aloud and he was hooked! After about 5 chapters he had to have the book because he wanted to read it more than we were reading it together 🙂 when I gave it to him he immediately started reading it aloud to me! (I almost started crying right there!) he was also so eager to grab his bible to look up scripture that was mentioned and has recently made a profession of faith. He is reading his bible and believe that is also in part to the fact that your books brought him to a place where reading wasn’t scary anymore!”  – Bridgett

“Your Dragon Books have had a huge impact in my life. The chivalrous men are mostly at the top of my list but I’ve read these books to my mother and she loves the way you write as well. The encouragement and the way you fit Biblical truths into the stories really helped me with my faith as well.” – Harley C.

“I love everything about them – the characters, the Biblical themes, the individual plots that all connect and keep me on the edge of my seat, and the fact that all three series keep the same characters, even while adding awesome new ones. I also LOVE all the character qualities stressed and exemplified in these stories – love, sacrifice, courage, chivalry, purity, duty, and everything else. As a 17-year-old girl, I especially love to see the chivalry shown by the boys to all the girls. It warms my heart.” – Hannah W.

“You have done so much for me by writing these books. Your words have pulled me through times of depression, suicidal thoughts, and anger at God. Your characters came to life and were an absolute comfort to me. My favorite poem of yours is the song of love from Elohim to Sapphira Adi. I have it on my wall and read it whenever I am feeling sad.” – Logan B.

“I have read all three series including and stemming from Dragons in Our Midst. I loved them and how they highlight that we are called to suffer for Christ. … I have passed these books on to my 3 children, 16 yrs. old and my twin 13 year olds. They are the key that has gotten my 13 year old son to be a reader. He reads and reads until he finishes one book and goes straight into the next. I am thankful for the message in them of the cost to follow Christ and the power of Christ to work in our lives to impact the world. … I keep telling other parents and students about them as well, especially for boys that are not interested in reading.”  – Missy M., a homeschool Mom who is careful what her kids read

“Six years ago, we were reading the Candlestone. We finished the couple chapters of family reading for the night, said prayers and went to bed. But I was so restless and couldn’t sleep. The image of the Candlestone’s torment alluding to Hell got me thinking about the reality of Hell. I was convicted that night that Hell was real, and a place that I deserved to go to because I knew I had sinned. So I went back upstairs to talk to my parents and they explained the Gospel to me. This time, I understood it, and I repented and put my trust in Jesus.” –  Megan C.

“I also want to thank you for providing my childhood and young adult years with stories of adventure, love and Christ. When I began reading the Dragons in our Midst series I was not a believer. Reading about Bonnie’s faith in the first book lead me to search after God. I believe that Billy, Walter and Matt were some of the best examples of chivalry I could have asked for.” –  Benjamin V.

“They are solid Christian fiction, with God at the centre of it all. They are so much better than Harry Potter, or Percy Jackson for that matter.” John G.

“My 19 year old son loves them, and devours them as soon as a new one arrives. Why is this so important to me? You see, my son has several learning disabilities – ADD, dyslexia, dysgraphia to name a few. For him to sit down and read any book, let alone a novel, is almost unheard of – except for your books. And, even more than just reading, he is making the connection with your stories to the Bible. The stories are helping him to grow in his faith and challenging him to walk closely with the Lord!” – Lynn H.

“I just wanted to thank you for the way you write; it is so encouraging and inspiring to so many teens!!! I am so engrossed in Eye of The Oracle right now. It is seriously THE BEST SERIES I HAVE EVER READ!!! I have stayed up till like 2 in the morning sometimes reading and being inspired in my walk with Christ!!! I will find myself going about my day and then connecting something that I’m learning in school or God’s word to the books!!! I recommend these books to ALL my friends!!! 😀 So, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for being willing to write books that are applicable to our faith and that go against what our culture is wanting young people to read today. I’m SO happy to know that there are good books out there that actually do something for my faith in Christ!!!”  – Kayla F.

“I particularly love the Dragons in our Midst and Oracles of Fire series. You are a great encouragement to me spiritually. I say this because I read in your blog once that you do not think that it is right to read books in which the main characters practice magic, based off of Leviticus. I feel the same way and thank you for providing so many good books that are based on faith and a relationship with God. It is refreshing to sit down and read a fiction novel and discover that the characters are Christians and following God’s will in the stories.” – Steven W.

“I started reading them when I was in 5th grade and they really encouraged me to be modest, its sooo hard in the culture today to be modest and seek after God, and your character Bonnie really encouraged me. I feel like I can connect to her, my dad verbally abused me and my mom and left us, but when I was going through that your books encouraged me. I knew Bonnie wasn’t real, but I thought if she could get through it, I could too. Her heart after God and love for others no matter what was inspiring!” – Katie B.
