This book is truly amazing, and the movie does it no justice. It is the kind of book that leaves you shocked though you've been warned that there will be a surprising twist at the end. No matter how analytical you become you will still be utterly surprised. Then you will think back and say to yourself, "Wow, it was there all along!" Don't let anyone spoil it for you. Don't watch the movie beforehand.

Very engaging, well-written... parts of the resolution of this story were predictable, but there was one twist that shocked me. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Yet another page turner by this author, with a deep message in the bargain! This is a great book for anyone who's ever struggled with man's ability to do evil and at the same time love tenderly. Kevin, a young man in seminary, struggles with that question. Then a boy from his past appears on the scene and threatens to blow up his car if he doesn't confess to the news media. With help from his childhood best (and only) friend, Samantha, and a sympathetic criminal psychologist, he finally tracks down the man and finds out what it is he's supposed to confess. A gripping conclusion!

A great suspense novel. Reading the last 50 or so pages you will need to remind yourself to breath.

This was my first Ted Dekker book, and I've been hooked ever since. Spunky and spooky, with a moral. If you like an intense thriller you'll love Ted Dekker.

Wonderful and Rivoting. Kept my attention from the beginning. You don't know who is doing the terror until absolutely the end!

This book was a disappointment to me. It was great reading all the way through and kept you turning pages, but I felt the ending was too much over the top for me. I was really let down because it just wasn't believable in the end. Left a few loose ends to things that were woven in as important elements to the story, as well. The reading was enjoyable, but the conclusion was not. I like to read the books before seeing the movies-this is a movie I will probably pass on now that I know the ending.

expected a thrill ride, but couldn't get into to story even 15 chapters in. :(

This book, while being a good read, was not what I expected. Instead of a paranormal thriller I got a so-so psychological suspense/mystery.

Thr3e by Ted Dekker is one of the best thrillers I've read this year. It's the only book by Dekker that I've read, so I'll be looking for more.

When Kevin gets the cell phone call to confess his sins within three minutes or else his car will blow up, he has no idea what the caller named Slater is talking about. Kevin is a seminary student, is quiet and causes no trouble. So who is this Slater and what is he talking about?

In most thrillers there is an element of the bizarre, and this is no exception. This book reads fast, and it's a race to the end to find out who Slater is and what he wants. Great book.

Enter a world where nothing is what it seems. Where your closest friend could be your greatest enemy. "Confess you sins to the world, refues and the car your're driving will blow sky high" the caller spoke to Kevin Parson on his cell phone. Precisely three minutes later, a massive explosion sets his world on a collsiion course with madness. And that's only the first move in this deadly gam.
