Review: Part One Of A Four Part Series
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 02 27, 2013
As a big fan of Ted's I knew I was in for a good book and he came through as usual. Thinking this was a pilot (as described) I went in thinking this short book would be finished when I reached the end. However this was not true, unless you like open-ended stories. The writing was good and the story-telling was excellent. Ted made a simple plot very gripping and thought provoking. What starts as a simple tale turns into something I did not expect (typical of a Dekker book).Unbelievers will not be offended and Christian's will be challenged. The scene in the school is typical secular humanism which makes for a sad yet informative scene. Since I have not read all of the books yet I can not comment on the overall point of the books but knowing Ted there will be one.The Eyes Wide Open series is a bit of a scam by the publishing company. As I said this is not really a pilot but the first book in a four book series. All four books together (which are available on Amazon) are the length of an average novel. They offer the first book for free knowing 99% of us will have to get the rest. Talk about baiting the reader. Not sure I agree with the ethics of this one.Overall I suggest bypassing this free copy and getting all four books in one volume.Eyes Wide Open (The Full Story, Books 1-4)My guess is, especially if you are a Dekker fan, that you'll be reading all of them anyway.1 Star = Pathetic2 Stars = Fair3 Stars = Good4 Stars = Excellent5 Stars = Life changingFor those who give me a negative vote on my review please comment and let me know why. I'd like to improve my reviews so they can be helpful to those who read them. Please understand I choose not to give a synopsis of the book because it's already given at the top of the home page. I find in doing so too many reviewers give away too much of the plot. Thank you.
