Publisher's summary

A story of revenge with a shocking premise and numerous reversals, Skin tackles the issue of what true beauty is - and what's merely skin deep.

Critic reviews

"A freak tornado drives five characters together in the little Nevada town of Summerville in this striking morality tale." ( Booklist)
"Listeners will tug at their collars and grip their steering wheels, and families will wonder why Dad is still sitting in his car in the driveway as Dekker delivers the chills that inspire a solid performance by Verner." ( AudioFile)

Another excellent book!

I love how Ted Dekker spins his stories and connects them to others of his books. In this one, there is a subtle nod towards the circle series. If you haven't read the circle series, do so! You'll understand!

Just didn’t make sense

I love the writer, but not this one. Kinda boring and just couldn’t connect to the story line. At first sounded good, but didn’t finish well.

Twisted

I started with the circle series and the lost books. Made me a huge fan. But this and the last book I listened to fromTed Dekker were twisted and unnecessarily violent. If they were movies, they wouldn’t be ones I would watch. I listened on so I wouldn’t completely waste my money for the audible books, but this and the last one are getting removed from my library. Too much gore.

Ummmm...

It's a decent book with a good parable, and there's a great moral to the story, but I struggled through it because, unlike the Circle series, it appears to be written for teenagers. That made it hard to stick with, but I completed it.

Skin

This book keeps you wondering what is going on and why. Makes for a good book all the way around. Ending is not what I expected either. Thank-you Ted Dekker.

Another great Ted Dekker book

Ted Dekker keeps you glued to the book from the first chapter. I love his ability to keep you in suspense from the get go. Would highly recommend this book, this is one of the very few books I've read/listened to multiple times.
