Left Behind (Left Behind #1)

Rating:
Summary: An oxymoron: fresh subject matter for fiction; weak plot!
Review: LEFT BEHIND would be better "left behind." Although the subject matter is certainly thought-provoking, the presentation is shallow and predicable. And the dialogue "stinks." My high school creative writing students develop stronger characters. The pilot's "quick" salvation is ludicrous, as is his relationship with his college age daughter. Just NOT believable. I do NOT intend to read the others in the series, even if my friend (who loaned me LEFT BEHIND) insists!

Summary: Thought provoking,keeps you on the edge of your seat
Review: Once you start reading you can't put it down. Be prepared to purchase all of the LEFT BEHIND series books, you won't want to miss any of them. If hollywood doesn't make a mini sereies out of this I will really be surprised.Even though this book is written as fiction, anyone who knows the bible will shurly get a teary eye ( several times ) during your reading.

Summary: One of the greatest Christian fiction novel.

Summary: Picked it up, and couldn't put it down.
Review: I've been telling my son I wished they would make a movie about the Rapture, so people could see the truth before it's too late. This set of books is the closest thing to it I've found. I believe the countdown is here, and the clock is ticking. People need to "get right, or get left." ;) Praise the Lord for His great love.

Summary: Excellent book, I could not put it down.
Review: From get go this book starts you into the the theme of what is going on. I liked the way the author gave mini symposuses of what was happening with each character at different times and how the characters lives intertwined. The author was very clever in not letting you ever know who the bad guy(s) are. Full of suspense and surprises. It is a very thought provoking book.

Rating:
Summary: mARVELOUS, YET CHILLING
Review: If you have read the book of Revelations and was not impacted or felt the need for salvation, the book Left Behind is a excellent written, chilling dose of what reality could be. Of course not even those of us that are Christians can imagine what the Rapture will be like, however, the Lord is giving us warning and insight and these gentlemen has beautifully orchestrated it on paper.

Rating:
Summary: Plotline thin, characters and story predictable.
Review: I applaud Tim LaHaye/Jerry Jenkins for introducing this subject as mass market intro to eschatology, however, the plotlines are thin and predictable and the characters need better development. I would recommend this book only if you are bored, and/or have no previous Biblical background.

Rating:
Summary: EYE OPENING!
Review: All I can say is buy ALL the books in the series at one time! What a great read and what an enlightening way to get the message across. I know that I DO NOT want to be 'left behind'. The characters are great and you develop a relationship with them as you read each book. This series is one that you will lose sleep over ... just because you are staying up late reading!

Summary: amazing

Summary: Kids Books are Super Awesome Too. Must Read!
Review: I read 1-5 of the kids series. Some parts are like in the adult books, and some aren't. I like the books so much I'm suggesting them to all my friends. Next I plan to read the adult books, which should be coming in the mail any time.
