All the comments I have read so far about this book have said that the reader "couldn't put this book down!" Or, "I read all night until I finished it." I had quite a different experience.
The 49th Mystic is a masterfully written, mind-bending, though-provoking, soul-searching read. In it you will find suspense, drama, and action, but you will also find things that make you wonder about your own life and your own thought processes. I don't know how Dekker does it... again and again and again!
My experience? I would read a few chapters and then have to stop and think about what was being taught in the seals. Sometimes, I would have to look up the references and Scriptures because I didn't know them already. Then, I would have to look at my own life... am I living Inchristi?
While it is not necessary for you to have read any, if you have enjoyed other books by Dekker, specifically the Circle Series, then you will definitely enjoy this new addition to his works.
From his website:
Ted Dekker is an multiple award-winning, New York Times and international bestselling author of over 40 novels.

His work has reached tens of millions worldwide and has been translated into numerous languages and adapted into major feature films (Thr3e and House). In 2013 NPR readers nationwide named him as one of the top suspense writers of all time.
Ted's passion is simple: to explore truth through mind-bending stories that invite readers to see the world through a different lens. Story is the shortest distance between the human heart and truth, and to this he has devoted his life.
