I am currently in the middle of Sinner right now.  I have read:

The Circle Trilogy (can't wait for Green to come out)
The Paradise Trilogy (as mentioned, haven't completed Sinner yet)
Three of The Lost Book Series
Skin
House
Three
Obession
Blink Of An Eye
Adam

I will probably read Chaos after Sinner and then wait until Green comes out (since I don't have the funds to buy all three books in one month).

As for favs, all of them (with House being my least fav (not much of a horror reader)).

What have you read.

The first book that you need to read is Black.  That will throw you into his mind and how he usually writes his stories.

I have the circle trilogy for sale or trade if anyone wants them.  They are hardback copies with the dustcovers on and in really good condition.  Send me a PM if interested.  I really liked the books, I just need some money and space on my bookshelves lol.

Blink Of An Eye is a somewhat remake of Blink (I've never read Blink so I don't know how much).  He redid it because he was planning on making it into a movie (but people are wondering if that will happen since Next came out).

I have read most everything by Dekker...the list I haven't read is much shorter than those I have. My favorites are When Heaven Weeps, Blink, and White. The romance stories! :) What can I say, I'm a girl.

Anyway, for anyone who hasn't read Dekker, Black is definitely the way to start. And I can't wait for Green to come out...Thomas of Hunter ftw!

Blink is way better than Blink of an Eye.  They took much of the politically incorrect searching for truth and replaced it with poor romantic stuff.

My favorite book of his is Black.  I will never forgive Dekker for what he did to Thomas Hunter in showdown.

What did he do to Thomas in Showdown that you didn't like

I have now completed the Books of History Chronicles unless he adds another book to the Paradise series

The Circle Trilogy rocked and as Britta said White was cool on the romance. Wooing the bride, how awesome is that......!  Well, let me answer that......It is awesome. I pulled out all stops while courting my now wife and still continue to do so and love every minute of it. And to think of Christ wooing his Bride.......man, that is to cool.
The Circle Trilogy graphic novel is pretty cool also.



Godspeed,
Mike
