#Giveaway ORACLE OF DOOM by D.J. MacHale @DJMacHale NERD BLAST Ends 11.16

October 25, 2018 By Mary

SYNOPSIS

Check out a book and read your future. . . . It’s another page-turning adventure from #1 New York Times bestselling author D. J. MacHale!

Marcus is an agent of the Library, a place filled with tales that don’t have an ending. Puzzles that won’t be solved until Marcus and his friends step in to finish them. This time it’s their own stories at stake.

Theo just visited the Oracle Baz, an old amusement-park machine that spits out fortunes for the cost of a quarter. Fun, right? The only problem is, the oracle’s cheap predictions have been coming true . . . and Theo’s fortune says that life as he knows it will end on his fourteenth birthday! Plus, Lu’s cousin, who also went to the oracle, is missing.

Marcus knows where to find help for his friends–the Library. It turns out that the Oracle Baz was a real man who died in a fire long ago. Can a glimpse into the fortune-teller’s past change all their futures?

    What did I do on my last birthday? Absolutely NOTHING. My family leaves me all alone to enjoy my peace and quiet. The rest of the year my four kids and ten grandkids are always calling, dropping in unannounced and I like my own company.

    I don’t really celebrate birthdays. I think we may have gone out to dinner that week just say we did something.

    I keep my birthdays low-key. On my last birthday I stayed home and spent time with our elderly dog, who was very ill. It was precious time and I was thankful for it.
