Left Behind (Left Behind #1)

Rating:
Summary: Overrated
Review: I thought this was an interesting concept and the authorshandled it well, but I was disappointed in their writing style. Thecharacters were not fully developed and the plot moved slowly. I don't rate it as a "must read".

Rating:
Summary: A real eye opener
Review: I usually hate to read. However, once I picked up Left Behind I could not put it down. I borrowed the book from a friend, but after the first night of reading I went out a bounght the first four books of the series. I am now on the third book (Nicholae). This series has opened my eyes to a whole new way of living and believing.

Summary: A good book to bring your focus back to Christ
Review: I enjoyed the book. Reading about the characters living their Christian lives helped me to refocus my walk also. I left one star off, because I finished the book too quickly. I read through the whole thing in less than two days and felt like more. Get rid of the large margins and big spacing and give me more story.

Summary: Entertaining, light reading for Christians
Review: The books are not the best written, and there are both religious fantics, and reading fantic's that tear these books apart. But on the other hand, whether there will be pre-trib, or just trib, it's entertaining, and intersting story if you have an imagination, and does privide some backing verses from the Bible. I object to the cost, one book covered 2 weeks worth of events? (Maybe condense two books into one). I hope they finish the series before Rapture does occur. :o)

Summary: Well written and in-depth
Review: I have long been an audio book fan and listen to them very often. I stumbled upon this tape by accident in a christian library and I was transfixed after the first 10 minutes. This is by far the best series I've ever heard and Frank Muller is the best reader. Since I listened to this I have also gotten the other 4 tapes in the series and I am eagerly awaiting the next book, the Assassins. These are books sure to keep you guessing.

Summary: Outstanding!
Review: Although this book is fiction, it depicts the rapture experience that is sure to come in such biblical accuracy.

Rating:
Summary: Best read ever-next to the Bible.
Review: These books have changed my life and my families. If it weren't for these books my family wouldn't be back on track with God today. I beleive God has used Jenkins/LaHaye to get the word out by writing these books.

Summary: Left Behind, the beginning of a fantastic series of books.
Review: I'm not a fast reader but when I started reading Left Behind I couldn't put it down. I was averaging about 30 minutes a chapter. This book is written in a way that it allows people to imagine how prophecies mentioned in Revelations can apply to real life occurrences today. Left Behind is written to both Christian and non-Christian alike. Even if you remove all the references to God it is still a very well written fictional book. This is an excellent book with lots of twists and turns, it's hard to know what's going to happen next. I intend to complete the other 5 books in the Left Behind series and eagerly await the completion of the Left Behind movie. My thanks go to Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins for their work on these books.

Summary: I Couldn't Put It Down!
Review: I had heard great things about this book, and although a Christian, weary of a "religous" novel, because how interesting could it be? Well, I read it in one day, along with the next three. I am 84th on the library waiting list for the next one. It really opened my eyes to possibilities...Some slow parts but worth hanging in there!

Summary: AWSOME 111
Review: This book tells it like it will be. I pray everyone will read this and get right with God.
