White by Ted Dekker
Buy on Amazon: White by Ted Dekker
I’ve come full circle now – having started with Green and ending with White.
What amazes me most is how relevant and current Dekkers writing is. I’ve read so many Christian novels that border on cheesy, or just full on cross the line that it makes me cry for well-written novels. I wish I had been introduced to Dekker much sooner!
I met Chelise in Green and always wondered about her story. She had been one of the Horde and had drowned and become Thomas’ bride. The love story in this book is astounding and moved me to tears (which is happening quite often with these novels).
Red is still my favorite out of the series but White’s story of redemption, of love, of forgiveness and of sacrifice is a brilliant, moving, fantastic rendition of the story of salvation and I applaud Ted Dekker for being brave enough to put this story out there, despite the warnings he received.
Do you know, I’ve never read Ted Dekker? Can you believe it? I’m going to read this. I’m always on the look-out for good Christian fiction, too.
I’d recommend starting with Black – it’s the “first” book of the trilogy + Green
