Summary: Well worth the wait!
Review: After reading The Lasko Interview by Clay Jacobsen, it was a very long wait for Circle of Seven to be released, but it was well worth it. Clay did not disappoint his readers! Circle of Seven is definitely a page-turner. As the suspense built, I could not put the book down. Not only is there powerful suspense, there is also a great deal of Biblical teaching woven throughout the book. If you are looking for an intense suspense novel that will encourage you in your walk with Christ, Circle of Seven is for you.

Summary: A MUST READ for the 2000 Presidential Campaign
Review: An INCREDIBLE book! There are so many surprises in the plot of the stories - A VERY timely book, considering that we are in the midst of the Presidential Campaign. Have you ever wondered about the "opinion polls" that you see so often on television and in newspapers? How the opinions of a few are promoted as the opinion of the nation at large? This book, superbly written, answers those questions. The book starts out with a bang and will have you holding your breath until the last page! I recommend this book highly and applaud Mr. Jacobsen for an entertaining but hard-hitting book.

Summary: Circle of Seven
Review: As a friend of Mr. Jacobsen, I read his first book, "The Lasko Interview" to support his writing endeavors. I was so impressed and thorougly enjoyed the book, that I anxiously awaited his next installment and "Circle of Seven" didn't disappoint me at all. Mr. Jacobsen continues with many of the same characters and introduces some terrific and interesting new ones. The characters and the storylines all weave together to make a thoroughly enjoyable read. I couldn't put the book down. This book definitely made me think about how the media disseminates information and how appropriate these topics are during this election year. I am also not a Christian and while these characters have their beliefs and their support system to get through challenges, I have to say that the religious tone was not overwhelming to me. Any religious references are explained completely so the reader can fully understand its significance to that particular character. Mr. Jacobsen has written a terrific book that will appeal to anyone who enjoys reading a good mystery.

Summary: WONDERFULLY FRIGHTENING
Review: As I read this book, I paid closer attention to how the media gave us the news. Mr. Jacobsen has done a tremendous job of realistically portraying what can potentially happen if the wrong people are in power. And who really has all the power? I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of what was written here is true. That's pretty scary....

Summary: Circle of Seven
Review: Clay Jacobsen spins a tail of intrigue and mystery as he introduces Mark Taylor a investigative television reporter who uncovers a dangerous secret during an investigative reporting assignment. The secret he uncovers threatens not only his career but his very life as he attempts to divulge this deadly secret before he is forever silenced. The plot thickens as romance blooms between Mark and Tracy, the grandaughter of the mysterious Circle of Seven leader. The Circle of Seven will stop at nothing to keep their identity and their secrets forever concealed. No one is safe. The characters are well developed and the plot fast paced and exciting. Once you pick up this book block out time to read in its entirety because you won't be able to put it down.

Summary: getting better and better
Review: Having read The Lasko Interview (Mr. Jacobsen's previous novel) I was anxious to read this one as well. I reviewed this novel for Broadman & Holman Publishers because I am a buyer for a bookstore. Jacobsen does characterization and plot very well and I was pleased to discover that he did an even better job with this novel. He weaves a Christian theme into his books without making it too obvious, which is a talent not possessed by all Christian authors. The area of polls and questionnaires is one I have long been suspicious of, because they are so easily manipulated. Jacobsen does an excellent job of giving a fictional account of just how easily this can be done and at the same time giving an enjoyably exciting story behind it. He's just released his new novel (Interview with the Devil). Can't wait to read it, too!
