Heaven's Wager: so this was Ted's first book. Good start and he just gets better. Starts with tragedy and develops from there. Well worth reading; looking forward to reading next book in The Heaven Trilogy. ( )

This goes with the Martyr's Song series and was another powerful message. Some of the plot was pretty far-fetched and the dialogue was a bit cheesy, but overall I loved the book. ( )

I really wanted to like this book. In fact, I was -expecting- to like it, which probably makes it even worse. I've heard so much about how amazing Ted Dekker is, but... eh.

None of the characters come across as...well, anything. They're all incredibly dull, and the plot isn't good enuogh for me to not care about the flat characters. I got fifty pages in, flipped through the rest, and decided that I really couldn't take reading another three hundred pages of it.

I'm going to read some of Ted Dekker's later stuff, and I seriously hope it's better. ( )
