    I know when I say this there will be gasps within the world of book reviewing, this is my very first Ted DeKker novel. I have heard of Ted DeKker and I knew about his books, but I also knew some of them can be “out there.” When I received Burn to review, I was excited to be able to read it.

    To be honest all I need to tell you is that I picked up the book one evening and did not stop until the last page was turned the next day. DeKker and Healy captured me by the first page and convicted my heart by the last. Burn will have you thinking about the good side of your personality along with side we try to cover up, our evil twin.

    If you have never read a Ted DeKker or Erin Healy novel, this is a good one to read. If you are already a fan, this book was excellent.

    Burn by Ted DeKker and Erin Healy can be purchased here.

    About:

    ted-dekkeTed Dekker (born October 24, 1962) is a New York Times best-selling author of more than twenty novels. He is best known for stories which could be broadly described as suspense thrillers with major twists and unforgettable characters, though he has also made a name for himself among fantasy fans.

    Early in his career he wrote a number of spiritual thrillers and his novels were lumped in with ‘Christian Fiction’ a surprisingly large category. His later novels are a mix of mainstream novels such as Adam, Thr3e, Skin, Obsessed and BoneMan’s Daughters, and Fantasy thrillers that metaphorically explore faith. Best known among these is his Circle Series: Green, Black, Red, White and The Paradise Books: Showdown, Saint, and Sinner. You can learn more from DeKker’s website.

    • I really enjoyed Ted Dekker's book "Three" - you have to read it one day - totally captivating - I read "Three" pretty much in 2 days :) (that is fast for me)...
      I have to put another book on my to-read-list :)

      I agree some of Ted's books are way out there and then some others will really make you think. I hate to admit it but the series, Black, Red and Green are really strange to me. I think I do sorta understand them, but they are strange. The others he has written will really make you think about God and your realtionship with Him and others.
