Publisher Description
The mind-bending pace of Black accelerates in Red, Book Two of Ted Dekker's groundbreaking Circle trilogy. Less than a month ago, Thomas Hunter was a failed writer selling coffee at the Java Hut in Denver. Now he finds himself in a desperate quest to rescue two worlds from collapse. In one world, he's a battle-scarred general commanding an army of primitive warriors. In the other, he's racing to outwit sadistic terrorists intent on creating global chaos through an unstoppable virus. Two worlds on the brink of destruction. One unthinkable solution. Enter an adrenaline-laced epic where dreams and reality collide. Nothing is as it seems, as Black turns to Red.

"You know those books where you can't get your eyes to read the words fast enough, and you skip lines, and sentences just to get on with it, because you feel like if you don't know what's going to happen you'll explode? This was ten times worse. If I were to say I loved this book. It would be an understatement."
— Georgie (5 out of 5 stars)

" I liked the first novel in the trilogy the best but didn't want to quit until I'd read all three "
— Jenny, 2/18/2014 -
" My interest was waning but the turn in the story line surprised, and hooked, me. On to book three... "
— Chara, 2/15/2014 -
" The thrill, nor the confusion, lets up in the 2nd novel of The Circle Trilogy. Thomas Hunter uncovers life-threatening secrets and an ever-lasting love. Somehow the two worlds are connected, if injured or killed in one world means the end of you in the other. "
— Donna, 2/10/2014 -
" This book is different from anything else that I have read, but my son's recommendation had me reading it. It is well written and keeps you reading all the way through. The end kept me on the edge of my seat and turning my electronic pages! I love the allegory! "
— Benji, 2/9/2014 -
" Red continues the story started in Black. As best I can tell, Black tells the story from creation to the establishment of Israel in the promised land. Red picks up from there and continues to about the time the early church was founded, focusing most of the plot on the story of the crucifixion. Initially I thought that this book was two stories running in parallel. After reading Red I have realized that the two stories affect each other, but are not running in parallel. Although these books are fiction, they are intended to be a picture of the message of scripture. I am not sure that I agree with the theology that Dekker is portraying. While there is truth in his writing, there is also great potential for readers to be lead astray. I tried to read this set of novels once before and I think I stopped part way through because of the concerns I had. What's odd is that I'm not sure I could tell you what exactly it is that I object to. Perhaps I feel so uneasy because certain things strike a little too close to a truth I don't want to acknowledge.

— Jonathon, 12/27/2013 -

— Ashlee, 12/11/2013 -
" Second in the black trilogy. Good book. "
— Staci, 8/28/2013 -
" The Circle Trilogy by Ted Dekker includes: Black, Red and White. These books are an analogy of God's creation, man's fall, and our ultimate redemption. They are very fast-paced and easy to read. "
— Monica, 7/23/2013 -
" This was a great book after Black by Ted Dekker! I loved it!! "
— Cassia, 7/18/2013 -
" I like the story line. I am ammused by how Dekker has woven Christianity into the novel, though I don't personally find it strengthens the book (just me). I am interested to see how things come full cirlce in the next book, WHITE. "
— Ashley, 3/10/2013 -
" Book 2 of the Circle Trilogy focuses on salvation--hence the name "RED". Excellent portrayal of the sacrificial shedding of blood needed for atonement. Not at all preachy, but the story unfolds in a riveting, can't-turn-the-pages-fast-enough way that makes the reader think. "
— Charlotte, 3/5/2013 -
" Sequel to Black. GOTTA READ IT! "
— Maddie, 11/1/2012 -
" Part 2 of "The Circle" allegorical series, starting with Black (not including the prequel, Green). Very good. Gives you a lot to think about. Maybe be frightening to some. "
— Jessica, 9/7/2012 -
" Christianity hidden in sci-fi...however, isn't both the same? "
— Zoe, 6/24/2012 -
" I highly recommend this book, and so far as I have read, this series. I was so-so about Dekker (the author) but he has truly won me over with these books. "
— Rochelle, 6/16/2012 -
" Read the trilogy hoping it would get better. It didn't. "
— Carol, 5/6/2012 -
" strange story... it just seemed to drag and drag some more... 2 stars is the best I can do for a rating. Just not my kind of book. "
— Crystal, 4/12/2012 -
" This series is unbelievably good! So much symbolism! Great!!!! "
— Jory, 3/4/2012 -
" Red is the second book in the series and I enjoyed this more than the first book. The struggle between good and evil becomes more apparent, but then again do we know which will win out...I guess I'm going to have to read the last book - White - to find out! "
— Barbara, 1/27/2012 -
" a decent start and a great premise in Black is ruined in the next two installments by way too much religious/spirituality hokum. the great ideas started in Black are jettisoned to focus way to much on the god/jesus character. "
— Teebird150, 4/24/2011 -
" A little disappointed in this one.. the religious undertones were a little too obvious and after reading 1/3 of the book it finally compared to Black in suspense and interest. "
— Kari, 4/9/2011 -
" I never know what's going to happen next, I love these books. "
— Caitlin, 4/1/2011 -

" I highly recommend this book, and so far as I have read, this series. I was so-so about Dekker (the author) but he has truly won me over with these books. "
