Summary: Truely super and inspiring!
Review: While reading this book I was doubtful at first. The term "christian fiction" put me off it almost at once, but I decided to lay judgment aside and read it as objectively as possible. Almost immediately I as swept off my feet by this book. It touched me deeply and there were several moments in which I almost came to tears. Some of the details were so horrific yet it all added to the drama. I was impressed. I admit, the only down side to the book is that it preaches to you, quite a lot, but it also has seriously got me thinking about the future. As i read in another review, these authors have really done their homework. I recommend this book for readers from 14 and older. I loved it. I am extremely interested in reading the rest of the series, and when I do, i hope that J&L have kept up their excellent work.Congratulations J&L on an excellent book.

Summary: A good introduction to a FANTASTIC series
Review: I was shocked to see that a few people had rated this book so low, but then I read that they hadn't gotten beyond the first book. Anyone who stuck with Star Trek: The Next Generation could tell you that sometimes the best series start off a little slow. I personally read the book in less than a day, which is rare for me. I didn't start reading until The Indwelling was already out and blew through all seven books in only about 20 days. It was a startling eye-opener for a rather back-slidden Christian who has since made a rededication of his life to Christ. If you find the first book a little slow, move on to the second right away. You won't regret it!

Summary: Sharing the Faith
Review: I haven't always considered myself to be a Religous person. My Mother sent me this book and I am so happy she did. I have now bought the entire series and look forward to reading it as well as my Bible. I am not going to be left behind. I intend to start living the life God wants me to. I don't want to have to endure the wrath of the antichrist. I will be safe in the faith with God and I will know enternal happiness! Thank you for helping me see the light!

Summary: The problem of the end
Review: The book was very interesting because Rayford's wife was always interested in christian stuff and is all into things that involve Jesus. This book centers on those that are "Left Behind" on earth. It shows the chaos that emerges as millions of people disappear, how people try to figure out what happened, how some re-find their fate in God, and how the Anti-Christ emerges. It's a well structured, swift paced book that focusses on world events as well as on personal experiences of people. I could not put it down, even though I wanted to. The downside of the book is that it still will be felt by the non-believer,that the authors are hoping to persuade people to their Shristian believes. That spoils some of the uncomplicated fun of reading this.

Summary: Just finished 1 and 2 of the series
Review: I just finished the first two books of this series after having my Amazon reccomendation center reccomend them and seeing them on the best seller list. I am not particularly "Christian" and as engaging as these books can be, they do come off at times as preachy. The story line is interesting, but the writing is not all that great and the preachy-ness is off putting at times. I am still trying to debate whether I finish this series. I would say that there are better books on the market right now to spend your time on. Don't get sucked in.

Summary: Am I crazy, or is this a knockoff of Stephen King's Book?
Review: When I first ready Left Behind, I thought it was the most creative, original storyline I had read in years--after reading four books in the series, I lost interest. Surprise! Surprise!Are these authors (Tim & Jerry) "sampling" or what? Stephen King's "The Landoliers (book & movie) has the identical storyline. No, it doesn't tie it to a Biblical pretext, but the core story of people disappearing from airline--leaving behind teeth, wigs, dental work, etc. is same. So much for originality. Is there a pending lawsuit?

Summary: Great Beginning of the Series
Review: The Left Behind series is a global blockbuster, and it all started with this book, the original and still ever-popular novel about the rapture and its aftereffects. There is something for everybody: a political chess game, lots of action, and a good ending, an excellent twist for the series. This book is, in my opinion, the best of the series, and is truly a compelling novel, full of intrigue and suspense. This is a worthy read.

Summary: An interested exercise for anybody interested.
Review: I didn't think this book was a masterpiece in adult fiction. Some of the dialog is a little painful and the characters are a bit thin. But what I find more interesting then the actual book is the pattern I see emerging in the reviews of this book. I have a suggestion for anybody who would like to spend a couple of minutes in research. Read or just skim through about fifty reviews of this book and then look up 2 Corinthians 2: 14-16 (that's the second book of Corinthians, chapter 2, versus 14-16) in any bible. Coincidently enough, verse 17 may be of interest to any of you "a-" or "postmillennial" believers who believe that LaHaye distorted revelation to make a buck; but to this . . . I have no comment.

Summary: I'm hooked
Review: Couldn't put it down. I have read some of the reviews from Amazon customers panning the book for its supposed mediocre writing style - I fear that those reviewers missed the entire point of the book. I read also a criticism of the supposed Proselytizing of the book - that reviewer missed the point, also. Perhaps it would be better to read the book of Revelation before being so quick to criticize. I found the book to be a remarkable adventure into 'what will be' when the Rapture occurs and the 7 years following. I immediately had to go and purchase the rest of the collection and am now on the third book, Nicolae. I highly recommend the series.

Summary: Interesting, but poorly written.
Review: I would have given this introductory novel a higher rating except for the really uninspired writing. the story has potential, but I always get the feeling the authors don't credit the reader with much intelligence. The entire thing is held to such a simplistic level, it grows tiresome. A book I would recommend to any other readers who feel as I do is "The Last Day," (Glenn Kleier, Warner Books). You will find it more challenging and vastly more interesting--quite an extraordinary tale of Judgment Day.
