My prediction is Evangeline The Seer Of Wall st. by Clint Adams is a one of a kind, set in the stars story that you will be talking about months after reading.
This is the unbelievable but true account of astrologer Evangeline Adams, descendant of presidents John and John Quincy Adams, who in 1899 launched her own Astrology business in New York City.
In a period when women faced hurdles and obstacles, we follow Evangeline Adams as she defends her character in court, was ousted from hotels because of her "witchcraft" trade but ended up influencing and working with some of the most wealthy and influential people in the world.
Clint Adams did a remarkable job with the main character. Evangeline Adams was a complex, misunderstood lady, but from the first page, I forgot that the story was being written by a man. How Mr. Adams did this had to be summed up to lots of research, a passion for the project and raw, sheer, justified talent. The only regret I felt was finding out Clint Adams was not related to Evangeline Adams.
I love historical biographies but when they are written from the main characters point of view and done right they are an instant masterpiece in my opinion.
Other than just a pure joy to read was the pleasure of learning about the differences between astronomy and astrology - Evangeline Adams says, “Astronomy is the study of all objects outside our world. It, too, is a science. Astronomy, you could say, came from astrology. Yes, you are correct when you mentioned interpretation. Astrology is the oldest, most ancient, of all sciences.”
“Yes. Astrology is the science which describes the influence of the heavenly bodies upon mundane affairs, upon human character and life. To be most clear-cut, it is a mathematical or exact science deciphered via astronomy, which describes the heavenly bodies and explains their motions, etc.”
Being a Virgo , I instantly connected with Evangeline's traveling secretary, a Virgo who was described as "an over thinker." The use of horoscope signs are threaded through the entire story to instantly describe character's Evangeline encountered. What a concept. With a few words of a characters horoscope description, we know all we need to know about that character. WELL DONE Mr. Adams.
“Six thousand five hundred and seventy days remain in my life, according to my astrological calculations,” Evangeline said. but at the end she favored and savored each day as you will each page.
Delightful,humorous, enjoyable and a work of pure captivation - Evangeline The Seer Of Wall st. is the book of the year that you do not want to miss. It has everything you want in a good story and more. I foresee and predict, you will feel the same, after you have read Evangeline The Seer Of Wall st. by Clint Adams. A MUST read!
