Summary: Intense Novel of the Last Days!!!
Review: I don't know what it was about this story that made me react the way I did. While I don't consider this book preachy, it made me look at myself in a whole new light. Boy! Do I need to change! The story was intense and gripping, though some of the circumstances happened at a much quicker pace than they probably actually would (my only complaint).

Summary: thought provoking - brings you back to your faith/religion
Review: Having been raised in a southern baptist environment, church was always a must. Always on Wed. evening, twice on Sunday. As a young person, this can get old. When you are finally on your own you sometimes loose sight of your upbringing and the readings of the bible. This book and three others in a series (total 4) are novels, quick, exciting reading about ordinary people experiencing the "rapture" as it is described in the bible, however much easier to follow and absorb. Fascinating and scary at the same time. It truly makes you stop and examine how you live and what might possibly happen in the second coming of Jesus Christ. A must read

Summary: A serious wake-up for those worried about being entertained
Review: I am a fairly new follower to the "Left Behind" series, having just recently, within the last three months, purchased the first four books, solely on the recommendations of every member of the staff of the Christian book store I frequent. I have since returned to purchase the fifth (Apollyon) and sixth (Assassins) volumes and anxiously await the next available releases. I am currently nearing the end of "Apollyon" and find myself mesmerized by the Biblical reference, explanations, story line and the characters, as the authors portray the very real human characteristics of doubt, fear, indecision, confusion, determination, the need to learn and development of their faith. I agree with those that have expressed very negative comments, that the redundancy of the detail becomes monotonous, the reading level is certainly not on a Post Graduate scale, and the story is more wordy than I personally prefer. I submit my belief that these book articulate, the fundamental Christian principle, to share the word of God, evangelize the faith, share the Love that Christ offers and bring the truth that Jesus Christ is the Messiah to his people before the Rapture actually does occur and we are "Left Behind". If you feel doubt from that last statement I suggest you return to the first volume "Left Behind" and reading again. I also believe the authors and publishers have a much broader spectrum of life experience and spiritual knowledge than I and if the story had been written on the reading level suggested by so many, the fundamental purpose of this work would have been lost to those who have the most to learn from it.

Summary: Left Behind
Review: I think this book moves really fast and it's a little scary, a little thrilling, all rolled into one. All in all, this is just a really good book. Most of the book moves along really fast, and it's a good choice for anyone from young adult to older people. Read this book!

Summary: The Best Book I Ever Read
Review: This book was full of action, full of drama, and full of everything else needed to make it a wonderful novel. Nicolea is the most heinous character I have ever read about, and Raford and Buck make great heros. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down.

Summary: SO AWESOME, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
Review: I'm now reading Assassins, No. 5 in the series. Left Behind has made a major impact on my life. I feel as though I'm a part of the story or the characters are my family. The Left Behind series is non stop and will give you insight and understanding of Revolations. Stand by for an amazing spiritual high. I couldn't get enough.
