Summary: I don't see why other reviewers were dissapointed
Review: Like the title says, I don't see why this book has brought on so many negative reviews. When they reviewed the identity of the assassin, who I already knew anyway, it didn't seem like it took too long to get to that part. Plus it brought on some new questions, that I am anxious to find out the answers too. The ressurection was fascinating, if not a bit spooky. Close to being my favorite, it is nipping at "Nicolae"'s heels. Almost my favorite. I bet "The Mark" is going to be great

Review: I have read the entire series to this date. I have loved every edition that has come from this series. I look forward to the next installment of the left behind series. If you are a new Christian, or have been a follower of Christ all of your life, I recommend these books, as well as the soon to be released movie. I particularly liked to way the authors didnt try to "interpret" the book of Revelation. If the Bible says the moon will turn blood red, the the moon will turn blood red. Just read the book.

Summary: Stretching for new material
Review: I was enthralled by the first books of the series. I anxiously awaited the release of "Indwelling" and finished it in just a couple of days. I was disappointed in the content. How could the book take so long to cover just a few days? It could have been done in a couple of chapters. I am not sure I will be so anxious to get volume 8.

Summary: The series has run out of steam...
Review: I have eagerly read and enjoyed the series but have to admit, the characters are starting to wear thin. The thing that keeps me reading these books is to see exactly how Lahaye and Jenkins will interpret the Book of Revelations and how that will look in "now" times. I just think it's time to wrap up the series now. Too much reiteration of the prior plots, thin characters (I just can't feel much emotion for any of them- not enough character development and too many of them), and redundancy- ugh! I love Christian fiction but this one is tired out. Please guys- don't do 12 books in total. Try to wind it up soon. Succinct is good in this case.

Summary: Amazing Book!
Review: The Indwelling is definitely one of my favorites of this series - though all of them are excellent! I am not really 'into' religion, but I was raised Baptist. However, I don't think that you have to be 'into' religion to enjoy this series. (though you just might reconsider sleeping in on Sundays from now on) I just couldn't put this book down! You know from the title what is going to happen, but it is so well-written that you have to keep going to find out what is going to happen next. I don't want to talk to much about the content of the book - I don't want to ruin it. I think that EVERYONE needs to read the Left Behind series...in my opinion.

Summary: If you find these stories challenging, don't read this!
Review: All you can say for this LEFT BEHIND series is that it makes for good Bible supplement, and if that's what you want in a reading experience, then, by all means have at it. But if you would like to engage your MIND on occasion; if you would like to read quality WRITING; if you appreciate intelligent PLOTTING and SUSPENSE, then you won't find it here. For the discriminating reader, there is a novel in this genre that delivers what this LEFT BEHIND pablum lacks. If you want your soul AND your mind stimulated, sit back on a dark night with Glenn Kleier's THE LAST DAY and enjoy some provocative thinking that is as scary as it is entertaining. As for LEFT BEHIND, unless your soul needs the reinforcement that badly, I say, leave it behind.

Summary: Not the best but still excellent
Review: The Indwelling, as well as all of the other books, was very good. Unfortunately, in the last couple of books, the first third to half of the book starts off sort of slow, but then picks up to a dramatic end. It is not one of the best but is still very good.Im so glad these books came out because I have never really understood the book of Revelation. True, this is fiction, but the events that lie behind the characters is as nonfiction as you can get. I don't understand why people can bash this series. The books are some of the most popular in the country. Im sure that out of the millions of people reading the books some have become believers. We should be thanking the authors for writing such a popular series and praising God that it happened instead of bashing it saying that they have become too slow or that it has become one big money maker for them. Personnaly, I think that the Left Behind craze is only beginning and by the time the last book comes out in 2003 there will be some new faces in church on Sunday.

Summary: Money Talks
Review: I and my husband were very disappointed in Book #7,"The Indwelling". We felt taken by the lack of substance in the book compared to the previous books. Surely, the authors are not trying to drag out the series for the money! I am hoping they will redeem themselves with their readers in Book #8. Please don't take advantage of your readers!
