Goodreads review by Jonnie on August 26, 2012

I am re-reading this book, because I love the peeks into heaven described.

Quotes

'Rarely does a novel grip a reader's heart and soul the way Heaven's Wager does. Dekker is among a very small number of writers who have mastered the challenge of blending sound theology with knock-your-socks-off storytelling.' Robert Liparulo, bestselling author

'Well, well, guess what I've found. A fiction writer with a rare knack for a compelling story, an expansive reservoir of clever ideas, and a unique dry wit that makes me laugh.' Frank Peretti, New York Times bestselling author
