"Birth of the Tiptons: Part One of The Tipton Saga" by Philip Davidson is a fictional novel that tells the story of Great Britain and the world from the 17th century to the 20th century (2019). The story revolves around the monarchical succession of kings and queens who ruled during this period and the birth of twin brothers, George and Charles, out of wedlock by King George Williams in the 18th century. The twins are destined by prophecy to usher in a transformative era for humanity.

In 1809, King George William III started celebrating his golden jubilee as the ruler of Britain. In 1810, the news broke that a woman he had an affair with outside of Wedlock, Nefeli, was pregnant for him. This was revealed to him in the spiritual and mental realm, showing him that the earth would only know peace after two families united to conceive the heirs who would change the world for the better.

King George William III was convinced that it was Nefeli, who was then just a maid but later revealed to be a princess from the Ocea-ana clan, who had existed 30,000 years before the king's generation. She was able to return as a human among humans to fulfill the prophecy.

It was suggested to him by his courtiers, James and Kellewe, that the twins should be taken to an orphanage in Tipton, in an area known as Black County, and should be known as George and Charles Tipton. Furthermore, their true heritage of royalty must never be revealed to them, and if they sought to know the truth, they must be punished severely by the dreaded Prussian army. The king agreed but gave the condition that a trust should be set up for the boys for 200 years with limitless funds that would give them access to the best education, science, and art to prepare them for the future.

At the orphanage, events start to take a dramatic turn when, at the age of 8, George, the older twin, comes across Mr. Figgis, who invents what would take the first photograph in the world and, as Charles, was influenced by his friend Tom, who was three years older than him, to become a lawyer. The knowledge of their true heritage, which was meant to be kept away from them to give the future a higher chance of fulfillment, stands on the brink of being exposed. Hence, will the prophesized future come true? The story is narrated by a man who stumbled upon something in Hyde Park that made him fall down. He was rescued by Frederick, the father of King George William III.

What I like about the novel is the unique writing style that blends the past and present together, making it interesting and captivating to read. The narrator uses a unique literary style that blends the past and present together, using the man in Hyde Park to understand the present and Frederick to tell the story of the past.

However, what stands out most to me is the revelation of the reality that humans exist both in the physical and spiritual realms and can actually communicate with each other to understand what happened in the past and what will occur in the future. This phenomenon is greatly captured in this novel through the way the author allows past generations of the kingship lineage to transmit their thoughts and beliefs to the present. This is illustrated, for example, when King George William, who died in 1820, appeared to Charles in 1850 to let him know his role in fulfilling the lineage and prophecy that both of them must be part of. Additionally, the king appeared and assisted George to ensure that his innovation was approved by the board, providing him with a solution to his problem during a seemingly hopeless presentation.

I'd rate the book 5 out of 5 stars. I don't have anything to dislike about this book, as I don't have an objective reason to do so. Also, it is exceptionally well-edited, as I found no grammar errors in it. I would recommend this intriguing masterpiece to lovers of fantasy and adventurous novels. The book's blend of historical events, monarchical succession, and spiritual connections suggests a readership interested in complex storytelling and imaginative themes.

As I read this review, I found myself intrigued by the novel's blend of historical narrative and fantasy elements, particularly the concept of prophecy and spiritual communication across generations. The idea that the past and present can intertwine in such a meaningful way resonates with me, especially in a story that involves significant historical figures and events.
