About this ebook

Welcome to Paradise.

Showdown

A man cloaked in black arrives in the sleepy town of Paradise, Colorado. He knows too much about the town’s many unspoken secrets, and he himself holds the greatest secret of them all. Bearing the power to grant any unfulfilled dream, he is irresistible. As dark clouds and sandstorms envelop the town, it becomes apparent that Paradise is being isolated for a reason. But why?

Saint

He belongs to the X Group. They call him Saint. Invasive techniques have stripped him of his identity and made him someone new . . . but who is he really? From the deep woods of Hungary to the streets of New York, one man’s search for truth leads him into a world of government cover-ups, political intrigue, and ultimate betrayal.

Sinner

This is the story of Marsuvees Black, a force of raw evil who speaks with wicked persuasion that is far more destructive than swords or guns. It’s also the story of two unsuspecting survivors of a research project gone bad—who may be the most powerful people on earth. And finally, it’s the story of one who comes out of the desert to lead those willing to stand for truth. The epic conclusion to what began in a small town called Paradise.

Ratings and reviews

Dekker manages to put several emotions down on paper which is a difficult task for any writer. Fear and loathing are the best. I think that he misses the boat with his portrayals of love and commitment. I was hoping for something different and git the predictable victory of love over hate.

Great book. Hovers on the edge of telling too much (vs just setting the scene) in the depiction of 'the bad guys', still great premise.

Its the same with both Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker. Ted has the ability to draw a person into the book so deeply! I love The Paradise Trilogy and they stand at the top of my long list of "great reads". The only way i can describe Ted and his way of writing is to simply say, he is an artist when it comes to writing! I would suggest this series to any of my book worm buddies. And another good read from Ted which Frank and him made and incredible duo, House! If u haven't read it, I highly recommend that book!
