Rating:  Summary: Exceptional and Real Review: Left Behind makes you think! If you have any knowledge of End Times then you can not dispute the real life view points to this novel. The Characters are every day people just like you and I. It's believable and gives the reader time to ponder and reflect. I encourage everyone to read this book. Believe it or not this book will come true. Read your Bible and see what it has to say.
Rating:  Summary: Too simplistic for most who need to hear the 'message'. Review: Arrogance is surely as wrong as lust, greed, and a host of other sins. Yet even before we get to the authors' message, we read [in the dedication] "For Alice MacDonald and Bonita Jenkins [the authors'mothers(?)], who ensured we would not be left behind". As a born-again Christian, I too hope I won't be left behind, but I have no way of knowing how God views my sins and whether my repentance is real. Only God knows the heart. And only God knows who will, and will not, be left behind.
Rating:  Summary: Spiritually Uplifting! Review: I couldn't stop listening to this book. I bought the first audio book because I had a long drive and it looked interesting. Now I have read some of the other reviews, and I don't know if the audio version is that much more "alive" but I could feel all the emotions that the characters were going through. At times I forgot that I would not be one of those left behind. This book, and the rest, are going through all my friends' hands. I don't want any of them to be Left Behind. I am so excited to read that there will be 6 more in the series. I will run out and buy each as soon as they hit the bookstores!
Rating:  Summary: Interesting topic, but poorly written Review: While I've continued to read the series, I find myself constantly complaining about the poor quality of the writing. I don't think this would have been published if not for the religious angle. I think the the concept for the series (explaining Revelations) was a great idea, I only wish the books had been written by someone who could write. There is no character development, and the story is almost entirely conveyed through dialogue. Characters are clumsily introduced, you hear nothing about them for chapters, then suddenly they are marrying a main character. It's amazing. I still keep reading though, although I'm having a hard time justifying spending any more money on something so poorly written.
Rating:  Summary: Intriguing! Review: I have just finished reading the highly acclaimed Left Beind.I rarely read novels, but due to the enthusiasm of several goodfriends and the experience of seeing it change the lives of people I know, I decided to read it. I couldn't put it down. In fact, I'm half way through the second book! While the book is no literary masterpiece it is worth the time invested. The charaters are real, the premise theologically accurate, and the suspense captivating. I recomend it! I feel bad for the people who had nothing nice to say about this book. Oh well, their loss!
Rating:  Summary: A truely great fiction based on scripture! Review: I have read some of the reviews of this book and decided I most add mine as well. I think the book is wonderful, and is a good tool to "wake up" the non-believer. This book does not take away from nor add to the book of Revelations and does not "attack" specific religions. It portrays events the way they might occur if Christ returned during this generation. It is based on God's Word. If nothing else it intrigues a person to search deeper in the bible for answers.
Rating:  Summary: It was fantastic Review: I am on book number 4 Soul Harvest. The books to this series is fantastic. If you want action and adventure, I encourage you to read this book. This book series has everything to it.
Rating:  Summary: Great Fiction Reading for all ages Review: These books bring so many things to light, whether they are truthful to the Bible or fictional to add to the book. They make you think and dream and wonder. It amazes me that some people review the book as if it is the Bible or an interpretation of the Book of Revelations, it isn't. It is Fiction, just for peoples enjoyment, if you don't like it, don't read it. But keep in mind it is just for entertainment, but for some it is very enlightening.
Rating:  Summary: I could not put it down. Review: A friend of mine recommended this book and now I am recommending it to everyone. I don't think that I have ever read a book that has had more of an impact on me then this one has. I, like anyone else that read the book, do not know if what we are reading is going to come to pass, but I can tell you this, it really made me think about my life and how I live it. I have bought the next to books in the series and am looking forward to reading them.
Rating:  Summary: A must for Christians and a witness for unbelievers. Review: You won't be able to put it down and will have the willies up your spine while reading it. Ideally, every Christian would have at least two copies to loan out to those who can't afford to buy "Left Behind." It will put chills up your spine, make you reassess your own relationship with God, mandate that you recommend it to everyone you meet (especially other Christians), energize your own witness with a renewed sense of urgency, make you celebrate that you won't have to go though this and grieve that there are still those who will. Biblically accurate, suspenseful, and frightening when you realize there are so many who still don't know! If I had the money, I'd buy tens of thousands of copies and give to everyone I meet!
