The Oracle

Carol M. Booton

Pythia Apulu is the last of the Greek Oracles. At the height of her power, she served the god Apollo in the Temple at Delphi, foretelling the future for kings and ambassadors from across the ancient world. Then an illness destroyed her power, her darling but possibly dangerous older sister disappeared, and worst of all, she lost her connection to her beloved god Apollo. Now, almost three thousand years later, she applies her much-diminished oracular insight as a business coach in Los Angeles, attends A.A. meetings for her geothermal gas inhalation addiction, and searches for the meaning of life. The Oracle is a heartwarming and magical story about family, friendship, and the search for spiritual connection.

Praise for this book

So much to love - the premise, the characterizations, and the descriptions/dialog ... a satisfying, quirky story arch with a lovely beginning, middle and ending that tied everything up nicely. The main character's love of her sister ... was relatable to anyone who has someone like that in the family. Overall, a very enjoyable read. A reader

A captivating story with just the right amount of mystery! A reader
