Renegade (The Lost Books #3)

in the third book we have billos turning his back on all that he once believed.we are introduced to a new person from the other reality marsuvees black which we find outhis purpose in their search for the 7 lost books of history.they continue to face danger from the horde and the black forest and the dark one.

Great book, written by a great novelist. Author and I don't know how he gets these ideas but they are great!

Wow, Dekker really got back into form with Renegade. It might be that incorporating Black, one of Dekker's best characters and the equivalent of Stephen King's "Randall Flagg" character or that he included various elements of Showdown and Skin into this tale that gave it the boost it needed.......or I suppose it could even just be that Ted really hit his stride here.... but, whatever the reason, this book really sings. While the first two books told interesting and even gripping tales, the YA slant present in the series thus far, had heretofore kept things a bit too simplistic and 1 dimensional and what we're left with an outstanding Dekker novel that definitely should be read by those who have delved into the Circle and/or Paradise series.The work Dekker does in the first two books to establish the characters, back-stories and plot all pay off very nicely here where Dekker is able to capitalize on events set in motion in the first two books to create some very harrowing and touching moments. Any reservations I had about reading this series to fill in the gaps between Black and Red are now a distant memory and Ted's really written a fantastic tale that even at ~275 pages measures up quite nicely to many of his full blown efforts.Definitely a must read, though this being part 3 in a serialized story, you definitely have to read the first two books in the series first.

Good story, Dekker rights well. Not what I call a 'page burner', but close to it. I enjoyed it, over all. At times I was frustrated with the characters because they didn't do what I considered to be logical things, but maybe Dekker meant it to be that way. I found myself drawn into the story and interested in what happened next. The book reads as if it is for late teens. It may be advertised as such, but I'm older and enjoyed it just the same. I would recommend the book. I read the Black, Red, White series and there a tie ins. I like that series more, but not a by a large margin. If you read the B-R-W series you would proabably enjoy The Lost Books series.

Avery good book

Ted Dekker is in a class all his own... with overt spiritual overlays all of his books are great. Vivid detail, exciting plots, twists and turns, he can have you laughing, crying and hanging on to the edge of your seat in just one chapter. Start at the beginning and work your way through all of his books.. It will be worth it.

Nice book

I read the book, because it was a continuation of the Circle series. Its definitely meant for the younger reader, but I liked it because it was a light read. Its an amazingly fun series. He is a fascinating writer and all of his books are not afraid to dive into some pretty dark and intense places of life and the human mind. I loved them!

A really exciting fantasy world with clear lines between good and evil

Seller provided options to resolve the issue, which was good.

This is a good book. Even though I haven't read it yet, I know it is because I have read a lot of books by this author.
