Review:As I said in the previous reviews of all the Ted Dekker books that I have bought, which is well over 15.
They were all for my granddaughter, who is in her "twenties", and she's read them all.

I am not an avid reader, so I don't know about them personally.
I take her word for it, that they are GOOD !! Read more

Review:I read this book as a teenage boy, and it changed my life forever. It satisfied me in an emotional and intellectual way that no book had managed previously (and would not do again until reading another Potok novel, "My Name is Asher Lev"). Although I am a Gentile (and an atheist), this book moved me so strongly that I still feel linked to Judaism. My own angst and confusion seemed mirrored in the tale of these two true friends. I recommend this book to all thoughtful readers, children a... Read more

Review:Like the other books in this series, it is a guilty pleasure of mine, and I don't really recommend it to many people. "Teen chick-lit" is just an awkward genre. Sadly the main character is developing into someone who is just led around by circumstances and events that she lets happen and then whines about the outcome. At least in the first book she was a troubled, but strong-willed, up-standing person and it was easier to see why she was having a tough time with making difficult choices. The lon... Read more

Review:This was mostly interesting but in some places the story seemed to drag. It's not one of those books you can't put down but I will read the next book in the series. I may wait until the price drops first Read more

Review:I liked this book very much. There were parts that I found even more engaging than Code Name Verity.

The only issue I had with the audio book was the shrill voice the narrator used for one of the main secondary characters. All in all, I thought it was a great book and narration. Read more

Review:Fabulous futuristic setting, terrific character development. I was, however, completely taken aback by the abrupt ending, having no idea it was intended to be part of a series. Imho, a "next in series" blurb should have followed that final chapter to give readers some context. Otherwise, the ending is far too abrupt and not at all believable. The character development of the final chapter's character in no way prepared me to believe that she has the skills and capability to right a wrong of that... Read more

Review:A book should be a single story. I'm in chapter 10, and so far, there is no one story. We've got a bunch of disparate stories about several different people. I'm sure there's something to tie them together later, or I hope so, but this is a frustrating read. I don't particularly care about the personal lives of these characters since they don't intersect except for the fact that they are all Human Garde. Further, they aren't doing much of any significance yet. It's pretty boring. Frustrating rea... Read more

Review:I liked i
t a lot. It started off really good and ended great, even though it got a little boring in the middle. There were a lot of things I didn't see coming in this book and Emma reminds me of Katniss in the hunger games. Read more

Review:I really like the story and the characters. I was able to really like, or dislike, the characters and root for or against them as I read the story. enjoyed the twist of the way the kids got the powers and what the powers were, they were well thought out and liked the premise behind it. After finishing the story I had to get the next one and enjoyed it also Read more

Review:My 18 year old daughter LOVES the series. Bought them asw a Christmas give along with one other book and she finished them last night. Has been reading non-stop since Christmas and mind you she does not like to read. She says the books are funny and entertaining. Some content may be somewhat offensive to some people. Hummm...wondering why books do not have a rating like movies/TV etc. Just a thought! Read more
