Ted Dekker


Dear Readers,
This review is about Sinner, due to come out Sept 3. If you order and prepay for your copy now, Baker has them at $14.97 in the pre-sale.

Sinner is the last of the Paradise series. It draws us closer to a complete circle of the three series he has been working on. I have to say that Ted is writing in his author bio that you can start this series at any book and follow what is going on. Well I believe you must follow the order and read them that way. I do believe that you can read the three different series in any order you want, but the books int the series must be read in order to understand what is going on.

Ok back to the review. There is going to be a showdown between Maruvees Black and the remaining kids from the monistary. He is forcing their hand, his assians are hunting them down one by one. Until only three remain. Billy, Johnny, and Darcy are the reason he exsist and he wants to rid the world of any threat that he can be destroyed.

In a world where Political Correctness has gone wild, Maruvees can manipulate the systems for his own good. He uses the goverment to make it impossible to talk about your faith. I am not going to tell you how he manages to do this, as it takes away an interesting part of the story.

Once again Ted packs a lot of action and adventure in to his 300 plus page book. He hold true to the story, even though I think he gets very preachy about the P.C. issue. I just enjoyed this story for the sake of the story. I know that if you like Ted's books you will want to read this book as it will help you continue the circle to completion.

Happy Reading

I love a good Dekker book every now and then, but I confess I haven't read much of the Circle Trilogy. Do I understand this right, there are three series of three books, (so nine books) that make up the circle?

If so, I'm impressed! And intimidated, I don't know where to start!

I'm also a fan of Dekker, although I haven't read this book yet, I'm kinda excited sippin' a cup of coffee with it. BTW, I had pleasure reading the Cirle Trilogy. I also have his book House (which will be in theaters, btw. Check out their official website - http://housethemovie.net ). Perhaps I'll just be waiting for the film (So sad I'll not be a good critic..). it'll be on November 7. check it out guys!
