Just when I thought nothing could top Bryan Davis's "Dragons in Our Midst" and "Oracles of Fire" series', his new "Echoes from the Edge", series comes out of no-where to challenge his previous accomplishments. The first book in this new series is "Beyond the Reflection's Edge". I have to say that the characters seized my attention and my heart immediately and wouldn't let go! With a gripping combination of science-fiction, fantasy, action, love (though not the kind you might think), and suspense, this book takes 16-year-old Nathan Shepard and his newly acquired friend, Kelly Clark plowing through their ever complicating assignment to save the world. Their mission begins with an ambiguous murder and takes them crisscrossing through dimensions via violin, an enigmatic camera, and cryptic mirrors. All the while fleeing a mysterious, yet terrifying villain called Mictar whose malevolent mind is bent on destroying our universe. I could talk about this book forever, so before I do, one question. Does anyone else get the impression that Mr. Davis's overall goal is to keep you from putting this book down?!
