ABOUT ‘ILLUSION’:
Dane and Mandy, a popular magic act for forty years, are tragically separated by a car wreck that claims Mandy’s life—or so everyone thinks. Even as Dane mourns and tries to rebuild his life without her, Mandy, supposedly dead, awakes in the present as the nineteen-year-old she was in 1970. Distraught and disoriented in what to her is the future, she is confined to a mental ward until she discovers a magical ability to pass invisibly through time and space to escape. Alone in a strange world, she uses her mysterious powers to eke out a living, performing magic on the streets and in a quaint coffee shop.
Hoping to discover an exciting new talent, Dane ventures into the coffee shop and is transfixed by the magic he sees, illusions that even he, a seasoned professional, cannot explain. But more than anything, he is emotionally devastated by this teenager who has never met him, doesn’t know him, is certainly not in love with him, but is in every respect identical to the young beauty he first met and married some forty years earlier.
They begin a furtive relationship as mentor and protégée, but even as Dane tries to sort out who she really is and she tries to understand why she is drawn to him, they are watched by secretive interests who not only possess the answers to Mandy’s powers and misplacement in time but also the roguish ability to decide what will become of her.
Frank Peretti has crafted a rich, rewarding story of love and life, loss and restoration, full of twists and mystery. Exceptionally well written, Illusion will soon prove another Peretti classic.
Just finished Illusion (was up later than I should after being totally hooked during the ending)! Thanks again Mr. Peretti for an incredible story and uplifting reading experience! You are my favorite.
Oh, and I must say that your note at the end of the book about your wife touched my heart. Thanks for sharing and thank her for the inspiration!
Mr. Peretti! I have waited for soooooo long for you to put out a new book! As soon as it was available I downloaded it onto my kindle and had it read in less than a week! You are a gifted writer who did an amazing job articulating every detail of Illusion.
Have you ever thought of the possibility of making this into a movie????? The way the book was written actually gave me such a clear visual of what was taking place that I literally felt like I HAD watched a movie!
GOD has truly blessed you with an incredible gift. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing your gift with us all. You are a true witness to the kingdom of GOD. May the Lord continue to bless you by downloading ideas into you so that you can continue to be a blessing to others. I bless you and your family!!!!!
Just finished the book. This may be your best book. “May” because I was on migraine medication when I got to the explanation and you messed my head up a lot more than if I was unmedicated
.
I agree this would be a good movie. It’s more cinemagraphic than previous books. I was very impressed with the level of research you clearly put in for this.
Great job!
