I
have to confess. Starting this book, I
wasn’t at all sure I could make it to Chapter 2. It seemed wordy; the pages were very full
with hardly any space outside the margins.
I found it to be slow and thought the author was giving me far too much
information on each of the central characters.
However ~
I’m
extremely glad I stuck with it. I can
liken it to taking the car up the ramp to Thunder Mountain Railroad. Once it started moving, it was a ride with
every bit of excitement. The plot was
phenomenal, the characters completely needed the depth that they had been
given.
Randy
Alcorn’s work was completely new to me, although I was aware of his writing on
heaven. I encourage you to visit his
site here http://waterbrookmultnomah.com/catalog.php?work=1663
and get to know his work. You will not
regret it.
“Deadline”
was a long read for me, and I highly recommend it. Many moral debates are included and are
handled with the utmost grace, tact and courtesy. "I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group
for this review."
