Editorial Reviews:

The stakes of the mind-bending story spun in Black are raised to a new level in Red. In one world, Thomas Hunter must lead a small, highly trained force of 30,000 against an unstoppable army of a million warriors. In the other he will face an evil beyond the scope of imagination.

Summary: Red: The Heroic Rescue (The Circle Trilogy Graphic Novels, Book 2)
Comment: Very disappointing this is not what I expected at all. I expected the book and this is a comic.

Summary: Great for boys!
Comment: The Circle Trilogy is one of the best Christian series that I have ever read. Ted Dekker gets the reader hooked almost immediately with his characters and action. The underlying message makes you excited to yell, "I'm part of the circle!" This second book clearly demonstrates Jesus sacrifice for all of us.

My daughter and I read the original novels and thoroughly loved them. My son is not a reader however and so he wouldn't even attempt the longer novels. I bought him these "graphic novels" as an alternative. He loves them and reads them over and over.

He is missing out on some of the nuances and feelings that come from reading an actual novel, but he doesn't seem to care. This graphic novel series is a great way to get the story of the Circle Trilogy without having to read for long periods of time.

Summary: Ted does it again
Comment: Ted Dekker delivers again. The graphic novels are unbelievably accurate and true to the written accounts of the trilogy. Now, not only is he able to create pictures with words, but Ted can actually create the real graphic pictures to make what every true fan will want as a part of their collection. A must have for every enthusiast. Dive Deep!

Summary: Great Adaptation, Superb Artwork
Comment: It's been fifteen years since Thomas Hunter, general of the Forest Guard, has dreamed. He eats the rambutan fruit every day to keep from dreaming, thus keeping him from traveling back to his world. He is now a leader of Elyon's people, a husband, and a father. He leads the Forest Guard in an ongoing war against the Horde, a diseased and tormented people that refuse to follow Elyon. As the Horde army closes in on his people, Thomas must finally travel back to his world to gather information he needs to defeat the enemy.

Back in Thomas' world time has practically stood still since he left. The deadly Raison Strain has been released into the population, and it's only a matter of days before the world is infected. Thomas is the only one who can find the one person capable of creating an antidote. Every choice Thomas makes in one world effects the destiny of himself and his loved ones in the other. The fate of both worlds is in his hands.

Ted Dekker's Circle Trilogy novels were groundbreaking to say the least when they were released in 2004. I still consider this trilogy to be one of the most inspirational and entertaining fictional works I've ever read. Naturally, I was thrilled when I heard the news that Circle Media was publishing the trilogy in graphic novel form. I must say the result is everything I was hoping for.

That being said, I would never suggest that someone should read the graphic novels instead of the novels to get the whole story. There is simply too much packed into these stories and you can only get the full experience through the actual books. But are the graphic novels worth reading? Absolutely!

Hats off to the writers who have cleverly adapted Dekker's complex plot lines into a story that flows well in the graphic novel format. Readers who are unfamiliar with the story will have no trouble following the story threads flowing through the alternating realities. The artwork is superb on every level. Seeing this story brought to life in such vivid detail was such a thrill, and I especially loved the way the artists effectively portrayed the other reality.

This is indeed a fun way to experience or re-experience Ted Dekker's most popular work. Circle Media has plans to adapt more of Dekker's works into graphic novels, with Showdown next on the list. If nothing else I hope these graphic novel adaptations will introduce more readers to Dekker and his arsenal of quality storytelling.

Summary: Great stuff
Comment: This was definitely my favorite of the books in the Trilogy, and this is a great way to experience it again. Great for people getting introduced to Ted, and great for long-time fans to experience Ted's best work again.
