Editorial Review:
Product Description:
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.

If you are a Ted Dekker fan, do yourself a favor. Read the first couple chapters, then read the last 4 chapters. You won't miss out on much. It was boring and repetitive. It was almost as if the author needed to end the series to explain everything and didn't have enough material for an entire book so he just kept typing until he had enough pages to publish.
If you are new to Ted Dekker-read his Circle Trilogy. It's amazing!

There's no doubt that Christianity is getting persecuted for simply stating what all they believe in, but Dekker has pushed the limit in this new book, presenting a future not too far from now where proclaiming Christ would be considered "hateful" and how one man is prepared to take on the challenges, both physically and politically, to gather 3,000 people (including a former witch who renounced all religions) to publicly and unashamedly proclaim they all believe in Christ in a very unlikely place.

The United States citizens lose their right to freedom of speech. What does this mean for the followers of Christ? The premise of the story in "Sinner" is almost upon us. We see it everyday in the news. What will you do about it? Take a stand for Christ or back down to the governments new law? Dekker tackles the subject head-on in this conclusion to the Paradise novels. The message is not to be missed and it'll cause you to evaluate your life and see who you really serve.
As for the story itself, I hate to say, I had to force myself to finish the book. Too many government meetings, too much talking and too much dislike for the two main characters. Things did start to pick up after page 300 and the book finished with a great ending but it was hard getting there. However, the "surprises" at the end were not surprises at all unless you weren't paying attention to what you were reading. They were very obvious. I've read everything Ted has ever written and I'm not convinced he actually ... Read More
