I've read more, but I can't think of them right now! ;)

Frank Peretti's also written Beast, I believe, and the Red/Black/White (I forget the order) trilogy is also by Ted Dekker. I really enjoyed Thr3e in particular, I couldn't put it down!

Frank Peretti's written the following (that I know of)

The Oath
Prophet
This Present Darkness
Piercing the Darkness
The Visitation
Monster
The Veritas Project: Hangman's Curse
The Veritas Project: Nightmare Academy
The Cooper Kids: The Door in the Dragon's Throat
The Cooper Kids: Escape from the Isle of Aquarius
The Cooper Kids: The Tombs of Anak
The Cooper Kids: Trapped at the Bottom of the Sea
The Cooper Kids: The Deadly Curse of Toco-Rey
The Cooper Kids: The Secret of the Desert Stone
The Cooper Kids: The Legend of Annie Murphy
The Cooper Kids: Flying Blind/Mayday at 2,500
Tilly
House
(with Ted Dekker)

And I'm unfamiliar with the rest. I've read all of the ones I've mentioned except for House because it was still really expensive the only time I had a chance to buy it.

I've read most of the Cooper Kids series by him... I liked them a lot, even though they were below my reading level.

When I first started reading them, they were at my reading level, but by the time I got done them, my reading level was definitely higher. That's when I read The Oath :D

But they were really interesting for a ten-year old (I read the first one on my tenth birthday).

I don't remember exactly when I started reading Frank Peretti, but I was probably about ten also. I think I read all the Cooper Kids series, then the Veritas projects, and I recently read a bunch of the Ted Dekker books.

I've been in love with Frank's stuff since I was about 9 years old, and just recently got interested in Dekker's work too. (Obsessed by Ted is soooo good! I'm going to get Thr3e and Saint this weekend, I can't wait!!!)

My Oldest sister has Thr3e, I think. Since she lives in the USA now, and I live in Europe, I haven't read it.

Oh, I pity you! Because it's an incredible book. Had me super-confused for a good half-hour after I finished it though.

Sweet. I love books that confuse people. I'll have to read it the next time I'm in the USA (wow, I'm going to have a huge reading list by the time I get there). :)
