About this ebook

It was an absolutely perfect day . . . until everything went absolutely perfectly wrong.

Kent Anthony is a brilliant software engineer who is cashing in on a brilliant career. He’s finally living the idyllic life, far from thoughts of theft and murder and other kinds of horrible criminal behavior.

He’s left his past far behind. Or so he thinks.

In his very first novel, New York Times bestselling author Ted Dekker delivers a fascinating story of the almost perfect crime, interwoven with a tale of bittersweet love that is almost enough to save a soul. Heaven’s Wager is a story that will bring you face-to-face with a hidden world more real than most people ever realize—a world where the unseen is more powerful than anything seen.

Praise for Heaven’s Wager:

“Well, well, guess what I’ve found. A fiction writer with a rare knack for a compelling story, an expansive reservoir of clever ideas, and a unique dry wit that makes me laugh.” —Frank Peretti, New York Times bestselling author

“Rarely does a novel grip a reader’s heart and soul the way Heaven’s Wager does. Dekker is among a very small number of writers who have mastered the challenge of blending sound theology with knock-your-socks-off storytelling.” —Robert Liparulo, bestselling author

    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.

    What an amazing, awe-inspiring story! Ted Dekker never fails to draw me into his tales of wonder, love and the stunning truth of God. Heaven's Wager is a fictional yet truth filled book that unravels the mystery of how great God's love really is... no matter how much we reject and despise him. Believe it or not, the whole of Heaven and Hell is watching from the sidelines as God rages a war over your soul!

    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.
