Forbidden

By: Ted Dekker, Tosca Lee

Narrated by: Henry Leyva

Fleeing pursuit, with only moments to live, a young man named Rom stumbles into possession of a vial of blood and a piece of cryptic writing. When consumed, the blood will bring him back to life. When decoded, the message will lead him on a perilous journey that will require him to abandon everything he has ever known and awaken humanity to the transforming power of true life and love. But the blood will also resurrect hatred, ambition, and greed at terrible risk.

The first book in a thrilling series set in a desolate future, FORBIDDEN begins a journey that continues with Mortal and will conclude with Soverign. From the combined pens of master storytellers Ted Dekker and Tosca Lee, this tale of passionate love and dark desires peels back the layers of the heart for all who dare to take the journey.

Decent book.

The ending left me wanting more. May move to next book. Dry in some areas.. But overall an interesting story.

Ted Dekker fuan extrordinare!

I am thrilled to see and understand how this will tie in with the rest of the other books..

One Of The Best Trilogies

Where does Forbidden rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The narrator did a great job with this audiobook, and all three books for that matter. Phenomenal story in all the books. Due to this series Ted Dekker has become a must read/listen to author for me.

Brilliant!

The narrator did an amazing job, and it made me love the book even more!!! Definitely a good read if you're up for a fun read, or if you want to take a more abstract approach and compare it to today's society.

Surprised with the content and overall experience

I would recommend this to a friend. Dekker does an excellent job with futuristic concepts and ideas of what could be the future state of existence. Even though some of the conditions are somewhat unrealistic, Dekker weaves the story together in a way that does not leave you questioning or doubting the possibilities.

Very good development of characters and the plot. Very nice carry over to 2nd book "Mortals".
