The Statement of Andrew Doran Kindle Edition

by Matthew Davenport (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.8 out of 5 stars 58 ratings
Dr. Andrew Doran has been out of touch with the major civilizations for quite a while. When an emissary from his Alma Mater demands his assistance, Andrew is in such a state that he has no choice but to help. The Nazis have taken the Necronomicon from Miskatonic University's library. With it they could call upon every form of darkness and use the powers of the void to destroy all who stand in their way of unlimited power.

For years Doran has been at odds with Miskatonic University.

Putting his negative feelings aside, Andrew takes charge and heads straight into the Nazi-controlled territories of Europe. Along his journey from America and into the heart of Berlin, the dark Traum Kult, or Dream Cult, has sent beasts from the void between worlds to slow his progress.

This is adventure and monsters unlike anything the anthropologist has ever experienced, and only with the assistance of the trigger-happy Leo and the beautiful Olivia, both members of the French Resistance, does Dr. Doran have any chance of success.

A sane man would flinch.

Dr. Andrew Doran charges in.

About the Author

Matthew Davenport lives in Des Moines, Iowa with his beautiful wife, Ren. Together they enjoy geocaching and watching horror movies. In his spare time Matt likes biking, drinking, reading, and writing. Only once in a while does he do it all at the same time. His writings are cross-spectrum aiming to be serious and silly while still telling a compelling story. His writings have been mostly short stories until 2011 when he decided to jump into the world of novels with Random Stranger being his first full-length book. His published novels include Random Stranger and Stranger Books, both of the "Abstract Series," as well as The Trials of Obed Marsh, a prequel to H. P. Lovecraft's Shadow Over Innsmouth. The Statement of Andrew Doran was originally put into the Kindle marketplace as a Serial Adventure, with each chapter as an individual episode before he compiled the complete series into the paperback novel.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Book Review of The Statement of Andrew Doran by Matthew Davenport
    Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2014

    This is a very interesting read, full of surprises. I love the story, and found it very entertaining. I love stories that entertain.

    Dr. Andrew Doran, the protagonist of the enchanting story, started off being too boastful for my liking, as well as making himself a super human. But then, he had to be a super human to survive all the beating, falling, and near death escapes he endured.

    As much as I enjoyed the story, I have to say that the editor did a vey poor job of keeping the story as free from errors as possible. One error was constant throughout the book, and it was the use of “than” instead of “that.” Chapter four of the book should have been given a much closer editing than it received. There were just too many run-on sentences in this chapter, that after going through them two or three times, I could still not understand what the author was trying to say.

    For a story of this beauty, I would advice the author to get a good editor to give the story again, a once over. The story itself is too good to be butchered like that.

    3.0 out of 5 stars I don't like horror in my fantasy novels
    Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2025
    Format: Kindle
    What a strange blend of historical fiction, imagination and horror! I gave it a three star vote because it held me to the end. It’s fairly clean, very bizarre, and has a great ending. Andrew Doran is a curious character.

    That said, while I appreciated the protagonist’s battle against evil, I dislike reading about the undead. They just don’t interest me. Vampires and the living dead for me are just trite. Then, too often in the book I found myself being asked to just believe something I found more than a little unlikely.

    I had thought that I knew who Matthew Davenport was, but unless this is an earlier version of him, this man loves the occult, not godliness, and he seeks to interest others in weird ideas about magic and aliens.

    Just not my cup of tea.

    This is an action packed ride; think Indiana Jones if he was fighting Cthulhu. The main character is a bit of a Mary Sue (too good at everything) for my taste, but people don’t go to the Indiana Jones movies to see Indy struggle with things. And hey, there’s lots of Nazi punching. Who doesn’t want to punch Nazis? If you need a book to distract you on a plane ride, here you go. Enjoy!

    The author provides compelling concepts in character, setting, and plot. Unfortunately, poor writing, lack of planning, and two-dimensional dialog prevents the narrative from delivering on the promises made. I was never able to overcome the desire to mentally edit the text for long enough to actually enjoy reading it.

    In the early days of WWII there were forces beyond this world in Berlin, anxious to destroy the Allies and take over the world. Dr. Andrew Doran, archeologist, travels between the Dream Worlds where Cthulhu reigns and into places where strange beings seek to capture or destroy him. Matthew Davenport brings these horrors close to the reader with a fast moving story in the spirit of H.P. Lovecraft.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 10, 2020

    This is the kind that should be pulped.

    The author has just thrown every creature in the Cthulhu myths at a hero who , armed with a magic sword and a magic revolver just surmounts one insurmountable obstacle after another in the most boring fashion imaginable..the many action sequences have all the thrill of playing a computer game in God mode..I.e. none.

    If you want a different take on Lovecraft that’s thrilling, intelligent and fun, try the Harry Stubbs novels.
