From AudioFile
Kevin King narrates this supernatural thriller using a variety of accents and tones, making characters easily distinguishable. When Jack and Stephanie break down on an old country road in Alabama, they hike to a ramshackled house called the "Wayside Inn." Already bickering, they depict their building estrangement with scathing remarks and bitter attitudes--until they enter the house and learn the "rules of the game." Subtle vocal nuances and changes of vocal texture are riveting as the game begins and other players emerge. Left as a thriller, this would have been good. However, the spiritual dimension at the end compromises the entire story, making it a disappointment. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Customer Reviews

A great blend of two great author's styles
House by Peretti and Dekker is a fast-paced, page turner. I read this in a day. Not for the conservative Christian reader!!! If you're a fan of modern movie thrillers, you'll like this. I was guessing most of the way through. What exactly is going on? How much of this is real and how much is perceived? How will they escape from the bowels of the house? The spiritual parallels are obvious, at least they were to me, but compelling. If you like novels that are action packed, full of the blatant spiritual truths found in Peretti's works, the plot twists and turns in Dekker's - you'll like this one.

Excellent
This was my first Ted Dekker book and it was excellent. I couldn't put it down. It has a hold on you right from the start...A must read.
