USA Today featured a review of "Damian's Oracle" March 30, 2012.
War of Gods, Book I. Revised October 2011. Inspired by Slavic mythology, Damian’s Oracle is the entree into the ongoing battle between good and evil over the fate of humanity. The White God, Damian, and his Guardians protect the world from the Black God and his monsters while rescuing Naturals – humans with extraordinary paranormal gifts – from the Black God, who would kill or convert them.
Caught in the middle is cool-headed Sofia, a Natural whose gift will tip the scales in the war. Sofia begins her transformation from human into oracle, the first in thousands of years. Damian rescues her from the Black God in time to complete a ceremony that will bind her to him for eternity. Sofia struggles with her new world and her role as an oracle and Damian’s mate while haunted by a mysterious man from Damian’s past who’s supposed to be dead. Unbeknownst to her, her link to the dead man may be all that saves Damian, his Guardians, and the fate of humanity.
While he wants nothing more than for the petite beauty to take her place at his side like the oracles of legend did his White God forefathers, Damian can’t quite rationalize having to win her over instead of command her. Further complicating his life is the sobering realization that there are spies in his organization who are helping the Black God take out his Guardians. Damian must help Sofia reach her potential fast, especially when a threat from his past returns.
Includes exclusive excerpt from M. Edward McNally’s The Sable City (Book I of the Norothian Cycle).

Great Read
From the moment I started reading this book I almost couldn't put it down. Great book!!! a must read. Looking for the 2nd book.
Decent read
I liked the story a lot but the writing needed cleaning up. It needed to flow better. I found myself lost in some scenes and couldn't figure out who was talking. And I doubt supreme beings use text message lingo and speak like frat boys. And no guy on the planet would be caught dead calling someone his bff. good plot but needs some tweaking. I wished the characters developed a little more.
Deserved 5 star
It is one of the first three books I read which is written by Lizzy Ford.
I'd like to say this is an absolutely amazing book! And I don't use the word "amazing" for anything other than the very best.
This book caught me and didn't let go of me. Still didn't. I read it more than 15 times and I have a paperback of it as well. I'll probably still have read it many times in the future.
