Explanation During Books Thunder of Heaven (Martyr's Song #3)
Experience one of the first novels from New York Times bestselling author Ted Dekker. “[Heaven’s Wager is] genuinely exciting . . . fast paced . . . spine-tingling . . .” —Publishers Weekly The world's worst fears have dawned. Nothing stands in the way of total destruction . . . except the love of one woman. Deep in the Amazon jungle a young American woman and the son of plantation owners fall madly in love. For Tanya and Shannon, life is a paradise most only dream about. But today paradise ends. The jungle has hatched more than idyllic love. It has also spawned insidious evil. An evil shrouded in a plot so diabolically brilliant that all of America will be brought to its knees at the hands of a few terrorists. The plan is executed to perfection. There is no way out . . . save an ancient woman whose dark past has lead her to a life of prayer in preparation for the unspeakable terror coming unleashed. “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, novelist and contributing editor of New Man magazineIdentify Books To Thunder of Heaven (Martyr's Song #3)

4.7-- Rounded up. My favorite of the Heaven trilogy. Quite different than the other two, but still kept with the theme of 'Love conquers all.' Terror, tragedy, mystery, danger, corruption, faith, twists, and deep providential connections are all part of this terrific work of fiction. I was intrigued at the start, then riveted once things got cooking back in the Venezuelan jungle. Well-written novel!I really liked everything about this book. I haven't read one of Ted Dekker's books in a while. They aren't usually the types of books I can read every day. But with such a great writer, I know they'll be good. And this one isn't as heavy and dark with the supernatural as some.I love the theme that God's love conquers any evil, and that even when things seem to have no possibility of any good conclusion, God is one step ahead of the plan, and can turn things back to good.It begins with love bugs
good story -
This volume of the Martyr's Song series was not nearly as self-righteous as the other two. If I could, I would have given this 2.5 stars, because although it lacked the incredible self-righteousness of the other two, it still had a complicated and somewhat enjoyable plot. I can tell that Dekker's writing has improved between all three books - this one outshines the first two. The characters are not all alike, and his ability to be far more realistic in his plot has strengthened.That said, a
For such a thrilling start to a book, I was greatly disappointed in the remainder. I was also disappointed since I loved another Ted Dekker book. The premise of the book was good, the beginning had a hook, but the middle and even the ending lacked a lot of interest. The plot begins with missionary families in South America and involves the CIA, the Church, and Terrorists. How could this have missed its mark?
StunningThe third book in this trilogy will move you. I was carried through as if I were there. Amazing truths captured and given back out through story! So good you wont want to put it down.
Yet another of Ted Dekker's early works, this one is the second best of the trilogy. Enjoyable, inspiring, and gripping, this is what we've come to expect from Mr. Dekker.
