Another Ted Dekker masterpiece

I can, unfortunately, be rather critical of authors who try to capitalize on a successful book by righting sequels, prequels, etc. In this case, however, I am not disappointed. I read this one straight through last night, couldn't put it down (yawning today). I have four more of his books waiting on my nightstand waiting to be read (I have read nineteen of his novels so far). The entire time I'm reading one of his books, I look longingly at the ones waiting there, knowing there is more treasure inside.

GOD BLESS YOU, TED DEKKER for providing clean fiction with a message.

Dekker has you wondering, AGAIN!

Great read. Dekker had me trying to remember who is from where and what their roles were before. I've read his books as they were published, Red, Black, White, House, Saint, Showdown, and the last 3 books of History ones. He's got me hooked.

This one was similar to the rest. If you're a Dekker fan, you won't want to miss reading this book.

SWEET

Ted really went all out on this one. Bringing so many parts of Showdown together, It got your blood pumping and stuck in quite a few twists you will never see coming in a million years.

Sinner is a Teaser!

Once again Dekker's work is hyped up to his maximum potential. We all know what he is capable of. Those of us who have read his best, know that when at his best, Dekker can't be matched! Not in a million years. Before you even get to the title part, Dekker has a "Dear Friends" page. And Ted Dekker dares us to possibly compare this by giving us "Old and new all at once." In other words, while this is totally "Circle," you may find it ringing a familiar tune with "Heaven's Wager" or "Blessed Child" coming to mind. Well, not in my mind. And this really isn't what I consider Dekker's best either! I consider this to be Dekker's tease. And ladies and gentlemen, I HATE BEING TEASED!! But I'm also a committen fan of Ted Dekker, and he isn't yet so bad that he's out of his element.

Ted Dekker did his best bringing us Darcy, Billy and Johnny. I believe that. Darcy and Billy are determined to get people to listen to what they have to say. And they have ways of making you listen. And you also have Johnny, simply a natural leader, who's been there, done that, and isn't fazed so easily, not even by something that reaks of Black! Oh yeah, you have Marsuvees Black, and he's as evil as his name. Plans are the name of this game, and something will go through. Leaders will be followed, and there will be a price to pay.

And it sounds pretty exciting, doesn't it? The problem is that Dekker doesn't make it exciting. This was pretty easy for me to put down, and when I read Ted Dekker, that's a first! I've never felt the urge to just put down a Dekker book to go do something else. Reading this, there was always something else to do!

My wife and I are always in competition when a Dekker book comes in the mail. Simply put, one of us gets to read it first, while the other waits in agony for that last page to turn. With my wife, that last page never did turn, and she was disappointed. Another person told me that he finished it only in hopes that it would get better. That doesn't sound like the Dekker I've been reading all these years. But it gives me hope when I hear rumors like that start to form. It means that hopefully we've still got the best of Ted Dekker to come about in the future!! Hey, I know, because I've read his best. And I can't WAIT for those to get on my bookshelf.

But as for the usual, when fans might say, "The latest is the greatest!!" Nope. I'm not saying that this time. I'm saying that SINNER is a TEASER, and I can't stand to be teased!! Don't do it again, Ted. I'm waiting for more of your best. The best of the best!!

Some say roll with the punches. Drift with the tide. Nothing can stop the inevitability of change. There was a time when 300 Spartans disagreed with such mindless thinking and stood in the gap.

Now it's time for 3,000 to stand in the gap.

Sinner is the story of Marsuvees Black, a force of raw evil who speaks with wicked persuasion that is far more destrictive than swords or guns. Beware all who stand in his way.

It's also the story of Billy Rediger and Darcy Lange, two unsuspecting survivors of a research project gone bad, who discover that they are perhaps the two most powerful souls in the land. Listen to them or pay a terrible price.

And it's the story of Johnny Drake, the one who comes out of the desert and leads the 3,000. Follow him and die.

Sinner tells the story of a free land where people who worship as they please and say what they believe are suddenly silenced in the name of tolerance.
