Yes | No“The next to the last installment in the ever popular Dragons In Our Midst/Oracles of Fire series, Last of the Nephilim holds more mystery than ever before. This book continues the theme of God's love, provision, and power. I can not wait for the final book, The Bones of Makaidos.”

There's no getting around it this time. Bryan Davis writes in his author's note that readers are recommended to read the Dragons in Our Midst series and the previous two Oracles of Fire books first. Do it. You'll need them.
I mentioned in the title of the review that the book does move a bit more slowly than I'm used to from Bryan Davis. That's okay, though. It gives this wonderfully tense feeling of the roller coaster ratcheting up the chain lift. Then you get to the end, and the roller coaster has stopped looking over the edge of an enormous hill. That's Last of the Nephilim, but don't think of it as a bridge between two books. It's a great story, very worth the read. More deep characters who learn relevant lessons. One complaint: The next and final book doesn't come out 'til next year!”
“Fantasy, to me, is indeed that, my own fantasy. I've gone through a time in my life and stories where justice rules, or is victorious, stories of evil destroyed, these inspire me. DIOM and OOF were one of these books, where normal kids dealing with some of my own isues, have the courage to stand up for good and destroy evil.
Another one of my favorite Davis books. Completly paving the way for the end, Bones of Makiaodos.
Get ready for the conclusion my reading this...now...now. Do you get the idead? now.”
