Donovan DeChance is a collector of ancient manuscripts and books, a practicing mage, and a private investigator. This Omnibus Collection includes books I, II, III, and IV of the series. Included are Heart of a Dragon, Vintage Soul, My Soul to Keep (The Origin story of Donovan DeChance) and Kali's Tale - book IV of the series. Also included are the bonus novellas "The Not Quite Right Reverend Cletus J. Diggs & The Currently Accepted Habits of Nature," and "The Preacher's Marsh," both of which provide background on settings and characters that appear in Kali's Tale. If you enjoy this book, you should read Nevermore, A Novel of Love, Loss & Edgar Allan Poe, which follows on Kali's Tale, has a cameo from Donovan DeChance, and leads into Book V - A Midnight Dreary, currently in progress.
Heart of a Dragon When a local houngan begins meddling with powers she may not be able to control, a turf war breaks out between the Dragons motorcycle club and the Los Escorpiones street gang—a war that threatens to open portals between worlds and destroy the city in the process. With his lover, Amethyst, his familiar, Cleo – an Egyptian Mau the size of a small bobcat –the dubious aid of a Mexican sorcerer named Martinez and the budding gifts of a young artist named Salvatore, DeChance begins a race against time, magic, and almost certain death.
Vintage Soul When, despite the finest in natural and supernatural security, a sexy and well-loved, three hundred year old lady vampire is kidnapped right out from under her lover's nose, Donovan is called in to investigate. There will be no ransom for the kidnap victim, and if Donovan doesn't prevent an ancient, forbidden ritual from reaching its culmination, far more than a single vampire's undead existence will be at stake.
My Soul to Keep Donovan DeChance is a very private man, and he is in love. When he invites his partner and lover, Amethyst, for a quiet dinner, she has no idea of his true intention. Donovan has planned a sharing - a vision that will give her the keys to his early life - the origins of his power - and a lot more than she bargained for. Join young Donovan as he fights to keep his soul, save a town, and learn the roots of his teacher and guardian - and meet his familiar, Cleo.
Kali's Tale When Donovan is asked to follow in secret as a hot-headed group of young vampires set out on a 'blood quest' to kill the ancient who created the young vampire Kali against her will, he learns that - as usual - there is a lot more to the story than meets the eye. Through the juke joints of Beale Street in Memphis, to the depths of The Great Dismal Swamp, Donovan and his lover and partner, Amethyst, find themselves drawn along on one of the strangest quests in their long, enigmatic lives as they delve into the world of the undead, the magic of The Blues, and the very heart of alchemy both to protect their young, vampiric charges - and to prevent an ancient evil from destroying the balance of power in the universe.
This novel directly crosses over to the original series O.C.L.T. - where Donovan is a sometimes consultant. It features appearances by Geoffrey Bullfinch and Rebecca York, O.C.L.T. agents, as well as Old Mill, North Carolina's own Cletus J. Diggs.
The DeChance Chronicles Volumes 14 Books I IV eBook David Niall Wilson
Wilson has crafted a compelling world, and I can't help but be drawn in completely. If he writes about these characters and this world for the rest of his days, I will still not be satisfied. Be prepared to be surprised by "Preacher's Marsh". It is a wonderfully powerful piece of historical fiction that shares the location, if not the characters, of the other works.Product details

The DeChance Chronicles Volumes 14 Books I IV eBook David Niall Wilson Reviews
He really needs an editor to check for all the grammar errors. Its very distracting and that's unfortunate because I would have enjoyed it so much more.
This is one of the best series I have recently read, and I read a lot. I don't understand how few people have reviewed these books. It's similar to The Dresden Files but not the same. It's fresh, and very interesting. Anyone who likes fantasy fiction should give this series a read!
Very interesting, the mix of vampires, magic, werewolves and technology is different for me but extremely entertaining. A very good read.
Loved the last few tales but for some reason had a hard time getting into the first couple. I thing if they revise this bundle of stories they should rearrange the tales. I actually liked the tales where he talks about the background stories better then the main dechance tales. I think they had more favor to each character and I wanted to know more about them.
The world was ok. Characters are a little one D and some dialogue was banal. Overall I'd recommend the series, just not in large chunks. Just know I should never read more than 2 in a series at any one time. I like buying the omnibus, just need a break between books, my bad. Ciao, Misc.
this is a fun read, if you enjoy the paranormal. the writing is excellent, so often in this genre the plot and characters start out interesting but end up being stereotypical and predictable and i found these books to be both entertaining and interesting to the very end. david niall wilson can sure tell a story and i intend to read them all.
While the concept of a centuries old 'young' mage in the current day urban context emerges as a refreshing model, the fact that there appears to be a magical charm for everything, right from opening locks to making oneself invisible, and that the protagonist has all of them, in addition to being able to access mysterious portals, kind of lessens the intensity of the plot and the action.
The character of romantic interest of the protagonist (Donovan), 'Amethyst' is quite hollow and under-developed, even after the chronology of the four books.
The first book is a good read, after that it gets unconvincing and quite superficial...
Wilson has crafted a compelling world, and I can't help but be drawn in completely. If he writes about these characters and this world for the rest of his days, I will still not be satisfied. Be prepared to be surprised by "Preacher's Marsh". It is a wonderfully powerful piece of historical fiction that shares the location, if not the characters, of the other works.
