" I really enjoyed the characters in this book. The overall message was also appreciated by me. "
— Seth, 2/19/2014" This was a wonderful action book with a love story that makes you hope for the best. It was re-published as Blink of an Eye. A movie script is in the works and I can't wait. "
— Paula, 2/18/2014" very thought provoking and original until they had a movie that was almost the same exact concept except without the religious tones "
— Lee_anna_love, 2/17/2014" I was so happy with this book! "

— Cv, 2/10/2014" Great! Cannot put it down! Will finish by the end of the night! "
— Emily, 2/8/2014" Very exciting. Not an allegory or something that prompts your faith like Black, Red and White but a great time and a worthwhile purchase. "
— Hilarey, 2/4/2014" Mind blowing just read it! "
— Patti, 1/21/2014" This is my favorite book of Ted Dekker and my favorite Christian fiction novel! "
— Susan, 1/19/2014" If you saw the movie "Next" then this is for you!!!! But wayyyyyy better! Don't want to give to much away but they should have done this book instead of the Nicholas Cage mock up. . . . "
— Daniel, 1/18/2014" I loved this book, especially the insight into the life of women in Saudi Arabia and into the Islam religion. It's also fascinating to watch a hero go from agnostic to atheist to believer. "
— Robin, 1/13/2014" My fave book in this thriller type genre from this particular author! Keeps you on the edge of your seat! "
— Alleyn, 12/23/2013" A faced-paced, fun read. A beach book from a Christian author. "
— Frank, 12/19/2013" "In a Blink of an Eye" by Ted Dekker was GREAT! I'm officially a Dekker fan. I learned that the reason why the book title changed is because he edited it (the version I read) to be more dramatic and colorful to be made into a movie. I can totally see this as a movie. "
— Tiffanie, 12/8/2013" I found the Saudi culture described in Dekker's book very interesting. Amazing how two cultures could be so different and yet find common ground through something so simple and yet so profound as love. "
— Marleah, 11/7/2013" Good story incorporates thought-provoking ideas on the character of God and the efficacy of prayer. "
— Janet, 10/1/2013" Interesting book about a young man who can see glimpses of the near future. The story is being made into a movie, and I expect it will be a good one. "
— Brent, 9/11/2013" The incite into the people of Saudi Arabia was intriguing, but Seth's clairvoyance was annoying. "
— Lois, 7/30/2013" I loved this book! It is a bit different than the other books that Ted Dekker writes. It's a different kind of suspense. Also, it has more romance than his other books typically do. "

— Eric, 12/29/2012" Raised a few really great questions about faith. "
— Tammy, 12/22/2012" A revision of Dekker earlier "Blink." My second favorite Dekker book. What happens when a man who can see the future kidnaps a princess on the run? You'd be surprised. "
— Blake, 9/2/2012" This was a great thriller book, that had a Christian perspective on the way we see things and the way God works. "
— Lynda, 5/2/2012" Just beginning but so far I think I'm going to love it. Great insight into middle eastern culture especially how it treats women. Now that I've finished, and it's been quite awhile ago!!! I can say I really did love it. Twists and turns; quite engaging. "
— Karen, 11/24/2011" Really well written- I finished it in 3 days and couldn't put it down. It's a good mild thriller, nothing too suspenseful. But kept me on the edge of my seat :) "
