Day Two CSFF Blog Tour Starlighter

I love names. Making up names for my characters is probably the most fun of writing a book. Here are a few names from Starlighter to arouse your curiosity.


Drexel -guard to a very important door.
Prescott- not a wise ruler because he doesn't regard his bodyguard. Dangerous to irritate a bodyguard. The guard might be too aggravated to remember to guard the unwise ruler's body.
Arxad-not a thoroughly bad dragon, but certainly not a thoroughly sympathetic dragon.
Uriel Blackstone-is he mad?
Madame Orley- who says, "Don't you fret. Dragons don't like human meat."










In conjunction with the CSFF Blog Tour, I received a free copy of this book from the publisher.

CCSF Blog Tour The Starlighter

I first met Bryan Davis in 2004. We were both braving the very secular DragonCon in Atlanta, Georgia to participate in the teen track. We'd met over the internet through a writers loop, and I felt a great deal of comfort, knowing another Christian Fantasy author would be there. Here is a bit of a bio from his website:
Bryan was born in 1958 and grew up in the eastern U.S. From the time he taught himself how to read before school age, through his seminary years and beyond, he has demonstrated a passion for the written word, reading and writing in many disciplines and genres, including theology, fiction, devotionals, poetry, and humor.
Bryan Davis is the author of the Dragons in Our Midst and Oracles of Fire series, contemporary/fantasy books for young adults. The first book, Raising Dragons, was released in July of 2004, followed by The Candlestone, Circles of Seven, and Tears of a Dragon. Eye of the Oracle launched the Oracles of Fire series and hit number one on the CBA Young Adult best-seller list in January of 2007. Book number two, Enoch's Ghost, came out in July and will be followed by Last of the Nephilim in the spring of 2008.

Bryan is the author of several other works including The Image of a Father (AMG) and Spit and Polish for Husbands (AMG), and four books in the Arch Books series: The Story of Jesus’ Baptism and Temptation, The Day Jesus Died, The Story of the Empty Tomb (over 100,000 sold), and Jacob’s Dream. Bryan lives in Western Tennessee with his wife, Susie, and their children. Bryan and Susie have homeschooled their four girls and three boys.
