Steve Capell said...: I would have to pick the Ted Dekker novel "Adam" as book book of first choosing to read. I have done some research on Ted Dekker before and he had a very unusual upbringing ... Dekker was born to missionaries who lived among the headhunter tribes of Indonesia. His first novels had strong spiritual themes and won several awards and more recently he writes serial killer novels and fantasy. I wonder how much of his child rearing years influenced his writing as an adult. I also had the opportunity to listen to Ted on Blogradio a few months ago and after his interview I am really wanting to read one of this novels. Thanks for hosting this giveaway.

The book I am looking forward to reading most of the ones to be won is Backseat Saints. It sounds like a difficult but satisfying read and I have had it on my TBR list for a while.
