Forbidden

I was able to interview two of my favorite authors the other day about a new collaboration that has just been released.  Ted Dekker and Tosca Lee have teamed up to present a new trilogy entitled The Books of Mortals and the first book, Forbidden, has recently released.



Tosca has been a guest of mine before and has written two fantastic works: Havah: The Story of Eve and Demon: A Memoir.  Her latest book, Iscariot, a novel about the infamous betrayer of Christ, will release next year.


Ted has been a favorite of mine for many years.  The book that got me hooked on him was Thr3e, a thriller that has twists and turns that keeps you guessing and wanting more.  His Circle Series (Black, Red, White and Green) is one that I highly recommend.  He is known for this thrillers that combine adrenaline-laced plots with incredible confrontations between good and evil.


Forbidden, the first book in the The Books of Mortals trilogy, is set in the distant future, in world ruled by The Order.  The Order controls humanity by genetically removing all emotions but fear.  That is until a young man is given a secret message and a vial of blood that changes everything and everyone involved.  A fast paced story involving emotion and reasoning that will cause discussion and debate.

Os Hillman - Change Agents

I've been doing a lot of reading lately on the topic of change.  Don't know exactly what that means right now but I'm guessing that some changes are going to take place soon and God is getting me ready for it.  The first book I read was written by long-time friend Phil Cooke entitled Jolt (check out the blog post).  The latest book was written by new friend, Os Hillman entitled Change Agent.


This book by Os is not exactly on change but on being a change agent.  Os writes about the stages a change agent goes through in preparation and the 7 mountain top cultural issues that a change agent needs to affect.  To listen to the interview click here or scroll down.
