Relation Supposing Books Black: The Birth of Evil (The Circle #1)
Enter an adrenaline-laced epic where dreams and reality collide. Fleeing his assailants through deserted alleyways, Thomas Hunter narrowly escapes to the roof of a building. Then a silent bullet from the night clips his head...and his world goes black. From the blackness comes an amazing reality of another world-a world where evil is contained. A world where Thomas Hunter is in love with a beautiful woman. Then he remembers the dream of the chase as he reaches to touch the blood on his head. Where does the dream end and reality begin? Every time he falls asleep in one world, he awakes in the other-both facing catastrophic disaster. Thomas is being pushed beyond his limits...even beyond the limits of space and time. Black is an incredible story of evil and rescue, betrayal and love, pursuit and death, and a terrorist's threat unlike anything the human race has ever known. Some say the world hangs in the balance of every choice we make. Now the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance of one man's choice.

Okay, you guys. I really wanted to like this one. Friends had recommended it to me. It's one of Dekker's most popular series. I should be the right audience for this. The fictional version of Christian-living books? Left Behind-light? It's all more drama than scripture, but I'm here for the drama! I missed the Ted Dekker train when I was younger, and I was ready to take the plunge.Aaand sadly, it was a hard landing. I couldn't buy into it. From the very beginning I wasn't invested in theHELLO WORLD, I'VE READ A TED DEKKER BOOK. At last, now I can be a Normal Person because I've read the Decidedly Abnormal Books that Ted Dekker writes. This book was...interesting. I'm really not sure what I think of it. All in all, it was kind of a "meh" read, in my opinion. Lovely Things: - The plot. Okay, the plot was pretty cool. *nods* The way Dekker intertwined two worlds with two plots that meshed together?? THAT WAS PRETTY DARN COOL. I wasn't a huge fan of the fantasy world, but we'll
Black has been on my to-read list for almost as long as I have been on Goodreads.A couple of weeks ago, totally out of the blue, my girlfriend asked me about the series and if I had read it. She had somehow stumbled across it, which is odd because genres of the fantastic aren't usually her thing (although I have been feeding her some of Stephen King's greats, and she's loved them, so I guess all bets are off now).Anyways, I told her I hadn't read it but it had been on my list for years. She
Black is a very strange story. The circular logic that pervades the narrative is quite fascinating yet confusing simultaneously. Thomas Hunter is shot in one world, only to wake up in another where a great evil is contained. This second world is chronologically past the first world. As Thomas takes information he learns in the second world to the first world, different threats awaken in both. This was a really cool idea, but also a very confusing idea. I am quite fascinated with the back and
What would happen if you had a dream that informed you the world was going to end? Or what if you lived in a world after the world we know ended but you were reliving those historical times in your dreams. What if you didn't know which was the dream and which was real? Or are both real? Time0-travel? Alternate dimension? An afterlife? Not only does our main character Tom have to question these things but so do we as the observant readers! The possibilities raced through me faster than I could
I've been trying to think about what I could say about this book. And I know that's a horrible way to start off a review. I also think that it hits at the core of what could be said. Do I tell you, that as a Christian, I actually dislike a great deal of Christian books? That even though I did like this book -- that I really don't mind this series too terribly much -- that it does nothing to change my opinion of the state of Christian publishing. Should I tell you that while Ted Dekker holds true
I first read this all the way back in 2006, and it still holds up today. An exciting, fantastical thrill ride that grips you, this is a wonderful book. Even though I've read them before, I can't wait to try Red and White again!
