An amazing thriller read!
Different is one word to describe this book. It is not like most Dekker novels yet, it is. I loved Renee and Lamont?until I learned the truth of Lamont, that is. I loved Danny, the priest. This book is different in the ?graphicness? as one of my friends put it, but not in a way that I would stop reading it. Graphic, in the sense, that some of the things that happened were quite shocking. (page 25 mainly). Renee?s OCD made me laugh. The love Danny shows, and his ?Confession? at the end is?I don?t have a word for it. Amazing.
All in all, I loved this book. As a novel I promoted for weeks, and bought 8 copies of,and was majorly excited about I was not let down. I couldn?t put it down?unless it was necessary. Amazing read!

Amazing! Total Thriller!!
As I dove into The Priest?s Graveyard, I was plunged into a whirlpool of love, lies, and an unquenchable passion for justice. Unable to escape, I rushed toward the last pages and found myself enthralled by Ted Dekker?s latest masterpiece.
The characters are blinded by their convictions, and they dragged me right along with them. They are such simple characters, straight forward and single-minded, but at the same time, so incomprehensibly complicated (wow, there?s a tongue twister for you).
Renee is willing to do whatever it takes, no matter the cost, no matter the pain, no matter the choices she must make to find justice and revenge. She believes in what she?s doing, in the decisions she?s making, in the judgment she?s casting, and that made her an entrancing and engrossing read. Although her logic is twisted by abuse and pain, I found myself empathizing with her, even in the crossroads of life-altering??or life-ending??decisions. She trapped me in her mind and showed me the world from her perspective.
Danny is a misguided soul with motives you can?t get around. He made me wish I didn?t like him or what he was doing, but it was so impossible not to love him! Conflicting emotions followed me like a tail while discovering the rawest parts of this deeply wounded character. By the end, I loved him. Just loved, loved, loved him.
I couldn?t stop myself from being on his side, even when he was doing atrocious things in the name of justice. Because in his mind, (and I found myself lured by his logic) the things he does are an act of love to the innocent souls in the world, who don?t deserve to be hurt, as he was.
But in the end, its all gets turned on it?s head, as only Dekker can do. Brace yourself for a brilliant and haunting experience in the blood covered pages of this gripping novel.

A new Dekker classic!
The Priest?s Graveyard is the newest story from New York Times bestselling author, Ted Dekker. It is heartwarming and heartbreaking. It will make you laugh and it will make you cry. It will keep you up at night, turning pages, eager to find out what happens next. There are surprises and twists and this story is definitely not predictable. The core of this story comes down to love, and what love is. A central theme is also that of judgment ? judge not, lest you too be judged. Renee Gilmore, a heroin addict strung out on the streets, finds her world being turned around when she is rescued by Lamont Myers. Lamont keeps her in a glass house as his wife, and she is happy until her world is shattered one day. Intent on justice, Renee begins a dangerous hunt. Danny Hansen is a Catholic priest who witnessed a great deal of trauma when he was a young man living in Bosnia. He moved to America, hoping to begin a new life. What he found was that the world was in need of a judge ? one man who could find the people in power who used the law for their own gain and take their fate into his hands. Danny has become that judge. When Renee and Danny?s paths cross, they embark on a dangerous endeavor that threatens both their lives. Neither of them will escape unscathed.
The mood of this story is different than Dekker?s other novels. This book was advertised as being about a vigilante priest, so one would assume this book would be as dark as BoneMan?s Daughters, Adam, or The Bride Collector. However, I felt this story was more centered around Renee, a fragile young woman full of naivete and innocence. Because of this, the story was lighter, heartwarming, and at times humourous. Don?t think that Dekker is going soft, though ? there was enough thriller and adrenaline to keep me up until 3:30 in the morning to finish the book. Danny?s journey is more ragged and raw, giving the classic edge to the story that Dekker does so masterfully. Something else Dekker has an incredible talent for is presenting his characters? emotions and feelings in a way that feels real. I could identify with Danny?s struggle and Renee?s pain because it was believable. Dekker gives so much personality and dimension to these characters they could walk off the page!
This story is a tale of rebirth, love, and judgment. It is raw and thrilling, while taking your emotions on a roller coaster ride full of ups and downs. From the first page, it is compelling and will keep you turning pages until you reach the last word on the final page. You might shed a few tears before the story is over. This is definitely one of Dekker?s finest works. If you?re already a Dekker fan, this is a must-have for your collection. If you?re new to Dekker, this is a great book to start your collection with ? because once you read this one, you?ll want to read more.
