Green. The beginning or the end? I will have to admit that I am with the norm on this one. I truly believe if you plan to read this series that you start with Black and end with Green. I think the experience of The Circle will be so much more enjoyable. Green was an amazing read as were the other 3 books, however, it was definitely the darkest out of the 4 books. Not necessarily a bad thing...but be forewarned that you are entering a very dark and evil world. I loved this series, but I am left utterly speechless. I will say this. I have never had a book or series of books leave me so utterly and completely exhausted as these. Emotionally, mentally and physically. Ted Dekker is a master at creating a world filled with both good and evil, light and dark and the struggles between them. I highly recommend reading The Circle series!

After reading some other reviews and learning that his other series - Paradise and The Lost Books - are all connected, I will be adding them to my TBR list! Thank you Ted Dekker.
