Green by Ted Dekker is called The Circle book zero. It is supposed to be the book that you can start with or end the series that includes the books. Black, Red, and White. This book deals with two realities The one that Thomas Hunter lives in with the Circle or albinos, the people that drowned in the pools of Elyon, and the Horde the followers of Teelah who have a skin disease that makes their skin turn into scabs thus they are nicknamed Scabs. The other reality is Earth in modern day after they have suffered a virus outbreak that killed alot of the population.
This story is very allegorical and it brings the people of Thomas' reality come to the edge of Armageddon. Elyon is God, Teelah is Satan And various people in the story are Christ, the antichrist, false prophet.
The story is very action packed and it does go back and forth between the two realities but it is mostly focused on the Circle.
You are suppose to be able to read this book either as the end to the series or as the beginning. I have read Black but not the other two books and I think I would have enjoyed Green better if I had read the other two books first. I think because I read Black that I understood a bit more about what was going on in the story.
If you are a suspense fan ore a fantasy fan then this book will be right up your alley.
I read this as part of Thomas Nelson Blogger Reviewer Program.
