The Mists of Time
(The Oracles Book 4)
by Delia Colvin
Book Description
The saga continues....
It began with a love more powerful than death. Alex Morgan’s love for his soul mate, Valeria was both legend and tragic. But finally, after 3000 years, they are living the life of their dreams in modern day Manhattan. Until a decisive flash of lightning opens a Kairos, a window in time, and changes their destiny forever...
In search of answers to their missing friends, Paolo Carrara leads them into the Underworld. And with one fateful step, Alex disappears into the past, igniting hidden passions, betrayals, and a possible end to the people that Valeria loves most—including Alex.
In order to save her husband and friends, Valeria follows Alex to ancient Greece, as the life they once knew vanishes into the mists of time...
"The Oracles does for Greek mythology what Outlander does for the Scottish Highlands!"
THE ORACLES
A love more enduring than life...than death...than destiny.

Our Book Review
This was a heart pounding, emotional side to their story, with plenty of aspects that will have your emotions all over the place. Another beautiful love story mixed with the endearing tale of mythology fantasy. If you haven't had the reading pleasure of the previous books do not worry as the author updates you at the beginning of the book so you can easily read this as a stand alone read.
Alex has found his long lost sister after thousands of years but she tells him that their parents are lost in the underworld where she was captured after looking for him. Yet there's a hidden truth in the story that she is not sharing She returns to try to free her parents but Alex feels he must go to help, he finds his dad, but his mother is still missing as she had fallen into danger. As his dad enters the 'Mists of Time' to try to gain help, openings to other dimensions that rotate differently and change every 10 days, with some only opening every 500 years, he begins to sense real danger, Alex frees him only to find that he is now trapped instead. Will he be found alive?
Both Valeria and Alex have always had the courage to fight against all the odds for those that they love. Valeria with the help of others starts out to look for Alex who is now a prisoner and under a spell as well as been hunted by Aegomon, whose mission it is to destroy the world of all oracles. With so much danger looming everywhere their lives are at constant risk. Will Alex now be parted from his love Valeria and his friends forever?
I loved my time back with Alex and Valeria and not forgetting their circle of friends. It was such a welcome read from one of my favorite authors. I would totally recommend reading all four of these books, not necessary to follow the story, but for the sheer enjoyment of the unique and wonderful writing style from such a talented author.

This sounds so interesting due to my anxiety I doubt I will read it. My daughter though reads books after the children are asleep. She and her friends love these kind of love yet mystery and danger books. I thought I was finished Christmas shopping for her but this series sounds like a must have.
ReplyDeleteNobody and I mean nobody should miss reading this entire series! I was enthralled through all 4 of the books and would grab the 5th if it is written!
