Scion of the Oracle

An Of Metal and Magic CORE Story

By: EA Robins

Narrated by: Lucy Archer-Woodcock

The seeds of prophecy bloom in the most unlikely of gardens.

BOOK ONE OF THE SCION SAGA.

Dali is sure there is adventure and excitement beyond Telsemar’s timeless, sandstone walls. Certainly something more than the daily routine of a flower delivery girl. There must be. If only she could prove herself to the secretive Society of the Divine and earn a place among its revered ranks of explorers. Under the cautious watch of her guardian and mentor, Kip, Dali wonders if she will ever find an opportunity. When Katherine, a senior member of the mysterious society, ends up missing along with the magic dagger in her possession, Dali realizes this is her chance to show her worth. Unbeknownst to both of them, this task will draw Dali and Kip deep into the hidden history of Soria and to an understanding that some pieces of the past are better left forgotten.

SCION OF THE ORACLE tells the story of two rather ordinary florists dragged into a world of secret societies, peculiar assassins, and a long-lost prophecy that could change the world forever. For those who enjoy a lively pace of storytelling in the style of Tamora Piece, or the distinctive characters of Raymond E. Feist, EA Robins offers a tale of excitement, betrayal, and family, interwoven with a touch of magic.
