The Bones of Makaidos (Oracles of Fire #4)
(Second or third read.)This book. Its one of my favorites EVER. I dont know how to begin reviewing it, so lets go with the old likes/dislikes.WHAT I LIKED:-How about EVERYTHING.-Pretty much all the DIOM characters return and form an epic army.-Abaddons alliteration.-The Maids uplifting speech.-Semiramis adds the perfect tension every time shes around.-Everything is intense and so many people get hurt! The stakes are especially high in this one.-Beautiful, brilliant themes of sacrificial love
This is my favorite book in the whole series!!Love the ending though it made me tear upðŸ˜
The ending, even though there were moments that were predictable, was still enjoyable and it did not dissapoint! So I would recomend this to enyone who's a dragon lover!
WOW. There are some ways to describe this book....most of them with lots of screaming. And me bawling at the end. Sure, maybe it's not the most in-depth written book, and there's definitely some...moments. But ultimately? It's beautiful. So, so beautiful that all I could do was lay there and smile/sigh/cry by the time I finished. PROF CAME BACK FOR THE FREAKIN' WEDDING. LIKE YESSSSSSSSSSSS. That's it. That's all that needs to be said.

Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books The Bones of Makaidos (Oracles of Fire #4)
A wall of fire protects the inexperienced villagers of Second Eden from a planned invasion of dragons and Nephilim, but how long will the flames last? Billy, Walter, Ashley, Elam, and the faithful dragons help the people prepare, but they are woefully outnumbered and will have to go back to Earth and recruit the humans who have the ability to revert to their former dragon states. In search of aid, Billy escorts Acacia, an Oracle of Fire, through a dangerous volcano portal.
Meanwhile, Sapphira, Acacia’s Oracle sister, stays in the underworld with Bonnie and Shiloh, waiting for the signal to emerge and join the battle. With Hades and Earth locked in a catastrophic merging of their two realms, Arramos, evil incarnate, plans to use Bonnie to add Second Eden to the merging of the worlds, thereby drawing his forces to Heaven’s Gate, where he hopes to gain access to divine authority.
Arramos has two secret weapons: Sir Devin, the greatest of all dragon slayers, lies in wait to destroy all dragons and their offspring, including Billy and Bonnie; and Mardon, a brilliant scientist, knows the secret to the Oracles’ indestructibility, and he has devised a way to steal it from Acacia, thereby draining her strength.
During these preparations, Semiramis, Mardon’s mother, comes to Second Eden and provides Billy with a wealth of information about Arramos’s plans, and with every subsequent challenge, her words are proven true. But can she be trusted?
With mysteries abounding and an ultimate battle looming, every decision could mean the difference between survival and catastrophe, and only a prophesied sacrifice can stop the onslaught of evil. But who will be the sacrificial lamb?
