Chosen - Graphic Novel: The Lost Books Series (Book 1) by Ted Dekker - A fun, and meaningful read

Think with your heart and prepare to die for you have been Chosen.

The land of the Forest Dwellers has been decimated by the Horde under the watchful eye of the vilest of all creatures, Teeleh. Thomas Hunter, supreme commander of the Forest Guard, is forced to lower the recruitment age of his army from 18 to 16. From among thousands, four new recruits are chosen to lead--and perhaps die--for the greater good.

The chosen four are sent on a quest to prove their character, but their mission takes a dramatic turn when they are intercepted, sworn to secrecy, and redirected to a different endgame. Now they must find the seven lost Books of History. Books that have power over the past, present, and future. Books whose words are alive. Books sought by the Dark One that control not only the destiny of their world . . . but that of ours as well.

A fun, and meaningful read

Yesterday, Chosen was given to me, and I started reading it today. Five chapters in, and I realized that real life around me needed my attention. Chosen, as part one of the Lost Books quartet set in the midst of The Books of History Chronicles, is very easy to get into, and the characters are fresh and interesting, their dilemmas compelling, and the world they live in very rich with history and conflict.

As a YA novel, I am recommending it to my fifth grade daughter for some fun reading,and I hope to be able to discuss some of the Biblical themes present in the story. For starters, there is the theme of being "chosen" for a specific task and destiny, shaped uniquely to fulfill that destiny, and choosing to embrace that destiny. I believe we are all uniquely fitted by God for his glorious work, right where we are, with the skills he's given us, and the path that he sets in front of us. The path, and the tasks, may not seem glorious to us, but God has a plan for each of us.

If you are looking for a fun, and yet meaningful read, I highly recommend Chosen.
