Grace Andreas’s world came crashing down around her when Petra and Niko, her sister and brother - in - law, died in a car accident, the same accident that she some how survived but has been left with an injury that will never fully heal. She has inherited the Oracle’s Power, something she never wanted, is now responsible for the care of her niece and nephew and not only has to figure out a way to survive it all on her own but has to figure out how to deal with a Djinn who has bonded himself to her little family. Khalil is a centuries old Djinn who finds himself inexplicably drawn to Grace, the human witch with the Oracle’s power, and can’t figure out why since from the moment they met they clashed. But the more time Khalil spends with Grace and her small family, the more he finds that fate has led him here for a reason.I had mixed feelings about starting this book. The whole WTF issue from Serpent’s Kiss was still fresh in my mind and I didn’t know if I was up for another one, but finding out that Oracle’s Moon was about Grace and Khalil, whose brief interaction towards the end of Serpent’s Kiss intrigued me, I forged ahead and I absolutely ADORED this book. It doesn’t have the amount of action as the first three, but that didn’t bother me in the least because I thoroughly enjoyed watching Grace navigate her new life as the Oracle, mother to her niece and nephew, Chloe and Max who are absolutely adorable and help give the story more depth and many humorous moments, as well as her growing relationship with Khalil, who starts out as the Bane of her Existence. She epitomized grace under pressure while dealing with everything that had been thrown at her and I couldn’t help but admire her. Khalil was a bit overbearing, but he was only reacting to what he knew, which was a lot, but as he finally gets a better understanding of all that Grace is facing, he becomes not only the childrens protect, but Grace’s. What I loved about Grace and Khalil was that while they both grew and compromised with each other, they didn’t change who they were. They were both still strong and opinionated beings that had found a and once they both accepted it a whole new world opened up to them both.
I liked the pace of the book and really enjoyed learning about what made Djinn’s tick. How important honor and balance are to them as well as seeing how powerful they really are. And can I just say that the Djinn’s form of sex is hot. The history of the Oracle’s Power was very well thought out and I loved how Grace made it her own. This book may not have as much action or politics as the first three do, but it has just as much heart and is filled with many fun and poignant moments.

Lord Fall Elder Races Thea Harrison Books Reviews
I had very high hopes for the Elder Races series when it started. The first 2 books were stellar with good story lines, strong characters and snappy dialogue. The third book in the series was a serious disappointment with a slow story and characters I found it difficult to care about. Oracle's Moon was an improvement over book three, but I still don't feel it lived up to the potential the series started out with. Elder Race politics and hierarchy have been woven throughout the stories from the beginning...indeed it plays a pretty big roll in the plots. But the last two books seem to be getting a little too bogged down with that story line and not enough attention is being paid to the romance between the hero and heroine. Paranormal romances that introduce an entirely different culture can be fascinating, but often it's too easy for the romance aspect of the book to get buried or short changed because of all the details or explanations about the new race, species, culture, etc. More and more in this series, that seems to be the case.
Readers were first introduced to Khalil in Storm’s Heart. It was a brief meeting, but enough to make you really not like or trust Khalil at all. Because of that encounter, I really never saw this one coming. I love it when an author can totally change your attitude toward a character. That’s exactly what happened in Oracle’s Moon.
Grace’s relationship with the Elder Races was forced upon her. She didn’t ask for it, but she couldn’t walk away from her responsibility as the Oracle. It chose her. Her new responsibility as guardian to her young niece and nephew made her new power even harder to shoulder, but she did it. It made her a character worthy of respect and sympathy. She was strong, determined and stubborn. I really liked Grace.
Khalil thought he had a handle on the situation. He was there because of the children. He had his reasons to want to be close to them and protect them. He didn’t like or respect Grace at all. Then he started to pay attention. Watching both of these characters transform is what made this a great read for me. I really wasn’t sure how Harrison was going to turn my attitude about Kahlil around. At the end of The Serpent’s Kiss, I started to no longer hate Kahlil, but I never expected him to turn into one of my favorite characters. Who knew? All it took was a chance to get to know him and find out where all the pent up pain was coming from.
The emotion and love shared between these characters was powerful and raw. Especially from Khalil. Grace’s snarky attitude toward him as ‘Bane of her Existence’ was perfect. They fought as easily as they loved and Grace not backing down on her principles where the children were concerned and torturing him with ‘thank you’s’ was fun. It was a great love story for so many reasons.
Readers got to spend some more time with Dragos, Carling and Rune in Oracle’s Moon. Not a lot, but just enough. I loved the interaction between Carling, Rune and Khalil. It was playful, unexpected and showed you even more of all their personalities.
I can’t wait until we get to spend some more time with Pia and Dragos. I’m beginning to feel sorry for Dragos. He hasn’t gotten much respect in the last couple of books. I’m sure things are going to get worse before they get any better, but it’s still going to be great to get more of the couple that started it all. If you haven’t started reading this series yet, what are you waiting for? Picking up Dragon Bound was all it took to get me hooked.
