Product Description

One of the chosen has gone renegade.

Turning his back on all that he once believed, Billos enters the forbidden book and lands in a reality that is as foreign to him as water is to oil. A place called Paradise, Colorado, where he discovers he has strange new powers given to him courtesy of a mysterious figure known as Marsuvees Black.

The chosen four have survived the desert, escaped the Black Forest, battled the Horde, and added a spirited refugee to their number. But nothing has prepared them for the showdown that Billos, the renegade, will lure them into.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wanna trip, Baby?, April 27, 2008

By	Brandon Vazquez "Phenomenal" (Cleveland, Tennessee) - See all my reviews

Okay... I've been anticipating the final two books in the Lost Books series ever since I read the first page of Chosen, and now my mind has absorbed each and every word of sheer awesomeness.

Renegade is more than a trip, trip, trip. It's a trip and fall, making your mind spin around every bend and curve definitely more than once.

Think of Showdown, The Circle Trilogy, and Skin compressed into one book, all your favorite locations, characters, and villains brought back to life in a whole new and unique way. Dekker promises to never let the tension break, and you'll be more than glad that you read this once you're done. I'm already tempted to reread it and I just finished it yesterday.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Will Make You Want to Re-read The Entire Series Again, May 29, 2009

By	Lorrie Covington "lc13" (Cape Coral, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Lost Books series brings you back to the Forest, and makes you want to pick up Black and read the Circle Books (can you really call it a trilogy now?) all over again. These are the stories that make Dekker...well, Dekker!

I won't recap the entire story here, but will encourage you to pick these books up and enjoy the ride. They won't disappoint.

My 10 year old just ravaged through this series! It was the only Dekker material she's read and she really loved it! Highly recommended for your readers!
