"Saint" is a fun jaunt through political intrigue with a dash of super-powered thrill, complete with double-crosses and secrets. The story is a thrill ride of assassins facing off with the usual tools and a dose of superhuman abilities.

Immersive storyline and compelling characters. One of the best suspense stories I have ever read. This was my first Ted Dekker book, and I rate him as one of the top five authors I have ever read.

That statement could not be any truer. Going into this book, neither you or Carl Strople "Saint" have any idea who he is really. The thing that makes Dekker's books so amazing to read, the twists and turns, making it equally difficult to review. Much... Read Full Review
