Summary: Revitalizing Book
Review: I couldn't put this book down, you won't be able to either. If you are interested in the end of the world, this is what it'll be like! You NEED to read this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thought Provoking
Review: This book was incredible. I have always considered myself to be a Christian, but this book has made me realize that I was not giving God my full attention. I have reaffirmed my faith in God and in Jesus. I have told many people about this book and what it has done for me. Not only did I finish this book, but I read the second and am now on the third book. I should finish this book today. I started reading 4 days ago. I just can't get enough. I have already bought the remaining books and I hope they get here before I am done reading this one. I recommend this book to anyone who has either not found Jesus in their life yet, or the ones who have let Jesus slip out of their lives. No one should ever have to be "Left Behind".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lights, camera, action!
Review: This series would make a tremendously popular movie. I have yet to read all the six (seven?) volumes. Maybe a series of sequels like Star Wars. Another outstanding project in my mind would be a film based on "Transfer" by Jerry Furland. And just to round it all out, I would do "Fist of God" which I am stilll reading-very strange but good.

Keep it up guys!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A call to be ready!
Review: I very much enjoyed this book. I've spoken with several people who have recommitted themselves to the Lord after reading this series. I shared my book at work and had a waiting list of 4 & 5 people at a time. It is very easy to read and makes you want more. It is quite hard to put down. You don't have to agree with the authors pretribulation theology to enjoy these books, no matter when or if you believe the church is going to be raptured, this book makes you want to be sure that you are ready for Christ's imminent return! Are you ready?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great beginning to a great series
Review: If you have ever had difficulty understanding the prophecies laid out in The Bible, this book and those that follow in the series will help you understand. The books, of which I have read the first five and am in the middle of #6, are very readable and capture your attention very quickly. The characters are very easy to relate to because their life situations are very realistic. I also believe that the authors have done a great job in bringing the message of The Bible to readers who may never pick up a Bible but who need to hear the message of God's love, salvation and plan for the people who choose to follow Him. I highly recommend this series to anyone. The message makes you think about the life choices we make.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's Fiction yes, but based on Truth
Review: I think there seems to be a misunderstanding on the fact that this book IS in fact fiction. Many reviewers are claiming we shouldn't get carried away with this book because it is fiction. However, this book is BASED on the facts from the Bible that will in fact happen. The book is a page-turner. I couldn't put it down and had to order the whole series after reading the first one. Now I cannot seem to do anything because I want to read the series all day. From reading all the reviews off multiple sites, a 98% excellent rating out of 2000 reviews goes to show you: Buy this book; and improve your Christian walk by doing so.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Left Behind
Review: This is an awesome book and series that aligns itself with the book of Revelation in the Bible. It brings the scriptures alive with a graphic depiction of what is to come. I have read all of the books in the series. I read the first four within two weeks and the subsequent ones with in four days. It is definitely a worthwhile read as well as a wake up call to those of us that are Christians and an effective witnessing tool to those who don't know or have not accepted Christ. I have been able to reach more people through the sharing of what they "perceive" as a "good" book and witness them into the kingdom of Christ. I honor God for Mr. Jenkins and Mr. LeHaye. In addition, there was an article in USA Today, that stated that profits from this series were going to charity. I applaud the authors commitment and motive to getting the gospel of Christ across cultures and denominations. I also purchased the children's series for my daughter, She absolutely loves them as well. Can't wait for the next book to come out!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you're 'searching' - this book is for you!
Review: Have read all 6 books and I absolutely love them. I took the time to peruse other reviews and was particularly interested in the ones who ranked this book low. Most blasted the book because it seemed 1-sided and warned of fortelling prophesy. Keep in mind this book is a work of fiction. An accurate depiction of Revelation it may not be -- but then who can accurately interpret Revelation other than God Himself? This is just an interpretation so it may be flawed - but it's only fiction. The GOOD NEWS is this book reaches out to people who are walking the fence, who need to re-affirm their faith, who are searching for something but don't know what... this book is uplifting, inspiring, and will propel you to make some life changes and hopefully interest you enough to do your own bible study, discussions and further reading in search of your own beliefs. It is not a bible, it is not gospel and I don't think it's intended to be taken that way ... but it is an 'eye opener' and hopefully a 'heart opener' in search of spiritual peace and a closer relationship with Jesus Christ.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A+ for interest B for writing and C for female Characters
Review: These are great books. They are very interesting and keep your attention. The whole idea of the rapture and what being "left behind" would mean is intriguing!

I have read books that have much better writing, but the writing in these books is about average.

The female characters in these books are, well, what can I say, they're stupid. Even the one's that are supposed to be intellegent, they just come across as whiners and dense. I never thought I'd want a "good-guy" or "neutral" character to die, but Hattie has got to go! It is not believable that even the Saints of God would keep going after this woman...flying across the world to find her and help her over and over and over again risking their lives and the lives of others. It just seems like a filler. Please let her become a Christian and let her character die.

Over all this book has been very exciting. The character flaws and writing don't take away from these great books. These books are extremely thought provoking. When Christ comes for His church where will you be?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Left Behind #1
Review: Could hardly put the book down. Gives a lot of food for thought for Christians and non-Christians. Would recommend it to anyone and have told several friends.
