Loved it! | Posted July 14, 2009
Adam was an awesome book. I really loved how Dekker went into the subject of demon possession; it reminded me a little of This Present Darkness & Piercing The Darkness by Frank Peretti, both of which are amazing books as well. The plot twist was so unexpected and mind-blowing for me that I had to stop reading for a few moments and just let myself process it. The only thing I didn't like about Adam was Heather - for some reason, her character really annoyed me throughout the whole book. I would've much rather seen Daniel end up with Lori. Of course, that's just me, and other readers may have different opinions on that. Either way, Adam is another amazing thriller by Dekker that everyone should read!

Adam isn't but. But isn't good. | Posted June 04, 2008
It truly is odd. I am a die-hard TD fan. But when it comes down to it, I did not like this book.
Now, don't get me wrong. It is still the heart-pounding, blood-chilling novel that you expect from Ted, but it falls short somewhere. The idea of dieing to remember your death is fantastic, but, despite the twist, new and enjoyable magazine excerpts, and unique characters, I did not enjoy the book.

Adam by Ted Dekker | Posted June 07, 2012
I immensly enjoyed this book, Dekker has a way of using everyday life and subtling changing it so that it becomes an intense battle of good vs evil with unimaginable love crossing paths with the most vilest of hatred. As always, Dekker points out that by ourselves we would lose to the evil, but with Him we can overcome it.

Best Work of Christian Fiction (I have encountered) | Posted April 06, 2011
I have read other Ted Dekker books, but this is my favorite. The amount of suspence and detail in this book is amazing. I have not read another book that has had such a great effect on me. The theme of the book is so deep and it is never fully exposed by the author; it's depth is something you will think about for weeks. There are also a lot of factual grounding in this book, which makes the experience more real. Highly recommended. An absolute must-read.

Great Read | Posted October 28, 2009
This book was one of my favorites that Dekker has written. I enjoyed it very much. His characters were so great and you really felt like you were there in the story. Dekker is very good at pulling you into the lives of his characters and keeping you turning the pages of his books. Adam was a great thriller novel. The mystery was great. It keeps you guessing until the last minute!

Best Dekker Thriller | Posted May 20, 2010
Adam is truly gripping. Once again besting most of his previous books, excepting the Circle Series, it latches on and bites hard. When Daniel Clark, a behavioral psychologist working for the FBI, dies at the hand of a killer known only as 'Eve', his beliefs and worldview are substantially challenged. After a miracle resuscitation, he launches a quest to find the Eve killer. With even more suspense when I thought no more was possible, Ted Dekker has truly mastered his writing. Outstanding!!

Adam | Posted April 05, 2008
This book is one of Ted Dekker's most exciting books. It creatively weaves two stories, while dragging you into a story of suppense that doesn't back down. It is one read that you must have in 2008.

:) | Posted December 31, 2009
EXCELLENT work by Dekker.. I liked this far better than Thr3e--though Thr3e was a masterpiece of its own. I just like the psychological aspect of Adam better than Thr3e.

Pretty Good. | Posted October 27, 2008
This book was a little hard to get into from the begining. It had action, sure, but it was more run-of-the-mill action instead of Dekker's usual hard-hitting stuff. the ending was so moving. It makes you really wary of what's around you all the time and reminds you to be strong in your faith so nothing can attack you.
