I love finding a book that I just have to devour. A long, wordy text that I am physically unable to put down.Ted Dekker had been a novelist that I was hesitant to read, if simply for the fact that he's a 'Christian' writer as opposed to being a 'writer who is a Christian.' Trust me, there's a difference. Anyway, I got this book for free yesterday donated at the office and available for anyone to grab. So I grabbed it and I just couldn't put it down.
I won't tell you what other stories it rather reminds me of, because that would ruin it for you, but it was a great blend of suspense, action and mind games.
It was a great, fun read and well worth my time curled up on the couch!
cool! i love it when i find a "Christian" novel that is actually good... :)
ReplyDeleteIs this the one that starts with the guy driving in his car and he gets a phone call saying that his cars going to explode in 5 minutes?
ReplyDeleteWhen Heaven Weeps was good and very eye opening to how we would respond with our faith in life/death situations. That was one of his first books.
I don't mean to put pressure on you or anything, but you are now *the* book source.
ReplyDeleteHave you read any of Ray Blackston's books?
Thanks for that! I'm always on the lookout for read-worthy material, too!
ReplyDeleteI am absolutely putting it on my ever growing MUST READ list ...
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!

Read his Black, White, Red triology for a great read. I think it is his best book(s), I have read a bunch of his stuff.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about that series, Rod. Yesterday I finished Blink, which was really good too!
