Summary: Another recommenation for you. . .
Review: To all lovers of the LEFT BEHIND series, let me recommend another sensational author you will love: Glenn Kleier. His novel, THE LAST DAY is nothing short of brilliant and I believe you will find it just as astounding as I have. It's become my all time favorite novel and I'd like to share the great enjoyment it gave me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Left Behind"series
Review: I read all 6 of the books and can hardly wait for the next one to come out in May,2000,if America ever needed a book to read, this series is it,you have to look at your life and all the things the Bible says and it becomes real,I am sharing it with all my family and friends,it is the best, next to the Bible I have ever read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow
Review: I thought this was the best book written in the sereis thus far. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I must admit that I was quite taken in as was Rayford about Amanda and can hardly wait to see what messages are on her hard drive. This is a must read for any christians curious about the trumpet calls or Revelation in general.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not complex, but enjoyable
Review: Before I read this book, I spent a good deal of time looking through the reviews--mainly the 3 stars and less, as I was interested in the downside of this novel. I'm glad I did, because I read it with a more critical eye than if I'd chosen to read the serie's cheerleaders' reviews. I must admit, I enjoyed this one as much as any of the others. If you read it for escapism, as is the intention of most series, you don't really want a lot of details bogging down the flow of the story. The authors accomplish this feat. Their point, I'm sure, is to both entertain and inform. It is far more accessible and understandable to the layman than is The Revelation. It will also be an aid to those who actually sit down and read the biblical version. The authors, though at times in the previous books tend to make the main characters superhero-like, have done a good job with showing the vulnerability of the big three in this one. Poor Chloe has been beaten up pretty badly two books in a row! Doesn't matter how she looks, Buck loves her just the same. The books are addictive, and I'm probably going to have to run to Sam's Club and get the next one. I can't wait to decode Amanda's correspondences with Nicolae. I had a funny feeling about her in the previous book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Journeys Through Rubble
Review: Buck and Rayford begin the ordeal of finding their loved ones after the catastrophic earthquake which disrupts every community in the world. Soul Harvest covers the weeks immediately after the quake, the so-called "Wrath of the Lamb". The fate of Chloe, Amanda, Hattie and others are plotted, with surprising results, and more of the 144,000 witnesses are revealed. Nicolae Carpathia's position is strengthened, and the relationship between himself and Rayford is becoming increasingly strained.

It is probably the best of the "Left Behind" series yet, as the action is continuous, and there are surprises around every corner. If you have read the three previous books, you will not be disappointed by this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hello Reality!
Review: First of all, I'd like to say that I can't stop reading this book. I found Nicholae not quite as temping to read all the time, but this one I can't leave it alone. Likely due to the earthquake and how it disrupted the mundane.

Secondly, I'd like to comment on Good intentions, horrible execution. We read this book from the perspective of basicly three individuals. Three people who were happy with their lives until God raptures His believers. These people could be any of us. I don't feel it is far fetched. How does one write a book with the world's perspective, and not key characters. Their feelings are real. Their actions are real. Every day some older guy marries some younger girl. This is reality! Determination to be with someone you truly love is also reality. Seeing your love dead and wishing to be with him/her is reality. The Tribulation Force of close believers is real. Of course there would be hundreds all over the world during the tribulation. Dr. Ben-Judah is called by God to teach and spread the word so unbelievers can be saved from an eternity of Hell. I am glad for his willingness to share his knowledge.

For the record - I rather enjoy the pages with large margins. Feels like I am reading faster. To me it is what is written on the pages that draws my attention. Not petty things like the margins, and book thickness, and age.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's Going to Happen
Review: To all those criticizing the writing style, you're missing the point. For years, men have ignored the Book of all time. LaHaye and Jenkins have woven a story of intrigue that would reach all ages and levels of intelligence. But the bigger picture is that they're telling the story in modern-day terms because the days are short. This has made the book of Revelation live for me as never before and I was raised in the church. I'm sure it has gotten the attention of many who are re-thinking their values and getting their lives in order. A big thank you to the authors for making it so plain!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good intentions, horrible execution.
Review: I think it is great that a Christian Book series is doing so well in the secular market place and I thought the first book (Left Behind) was great. But it is all downhill from there. If you except that the authors get all of the facts straight about the end times (which I do) then you are still left with horrible story telling and unbelievable.

First, a 30-year old (Buck) marrying a 20-year old (Chloe). I don't think so. Why is Ben-Judah the only person in the world that knows anything about Revelations. There is no way that the entire Christian world would have to rely on Ben-Judah for teachings, and if they did, there would be no way they could all communicate with him.

How can a group of six people be called a Force. The six people in the Tribulation Force are not unique. I have no doubt that there will be thousands of groups like the Tribulation Force when the rapture comes. Not just one that is the center of the end times universe.

Why does Buck rescue Chloe from the hospital. She was not in danger. How could he take care of her. He couldn't. She should be dead now.

In soul harvest, Rayford wants to die when he sees Amanda is dead. He says he wants to die so he can spend eternity with his "love" (or something to that effect. Did he mean his first wife which he totally ignored and almost cheated on, or his second wife that was probably a spy for the Anti-Christ (I don't know if she is since I have not read the next book.)

Two more things. First, do not listen to the book on tape. That guy drives me insane. He acts out the voices of every person. Why couldn't he just read the book and let us figure out who is talking. It is not that difficult.

Finally, when a normal book is published, it comes out in hardcover for about $25, and then in paperback for about $7. Why are the paperbacks in this series the size of hardcovers with large print and the biggest margins in history and a cost of $13. the print is so large and the margins are so wide. Normal books are twice as long and cost half as much.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Another great sequel
Review: I enjoyed this continuation of the series very much. The dive into the Tigris River at the end of the book will keep you guessing about Amanda for a while. The only part that I did't like was that they didn't spend more time discussing the mountain and Wormwood. One would think, with all of the movies that have been produced pertaining to asteroid impact, that they would have talked a little more about the collisions since this is a major topic of the day. Except for that one detail, I loved this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: That's it, I can't take it anymore.
Review: It seems to me that every book following "Left Behind" is merely a repitition. I found this book so hard to get into, I had to force myself to finish it. Why are all these great reviews coming forward?
