  <default_description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;It has been predicted that Christians will one day be hated even in the land of the free. Now that day has arrived with the help of Marsuvees Black.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When a string of racially motivated lynchings threatens to tear the country apart, two stunningly gifted orators, Darcy Lange and Billy Rediger, sweep into Washington and demand that the constitution be modified to allow for a law that will end the widespread violence. Racial and religious speech that undermines others' beliefs must be classified as hate speech and must be severely punished.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But out of the desert comes one man, Johnny Drake, who refuses to deny his faith in Christ through silence. Now the whole world watches as Christianity faces a showdown not seen since the times of the early church.&lt;p&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[For those of you who didn't know, 'Sinner' is the third book in the 'Paradise' trilogy written by Ted Dekker. The trilogy involves the 'Books of History' which the Circle trilogy was all about ('Green' is coming out this year... will that mean it will be the Circle quadrilogy?).

    <body><![CDATA[This is the last of the Paradise Novels and my favorite of the 3. It outlines the lives of the two remaining main characters from Showdown and also concludes the story with another fresh picture of God's love and how it is not about religion, but about love and belief in the Lord. This one also ends...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61519010">more...</a>]]></body>

Sure, it finished with a good cliff hanger, and I can't wait to read Green when it comes out in September.  But it didn't really go anywhere.  You know, same old same old.
