Summary: Excellent and Powerful Novel
Review: I thought that the book Nicolae was an excellent book. I never had a book capture my attention like this one before. The way that LaHaye and Jenkins propose their views of the tribulation period are excellent and well thought out ideas. The series of books keep getting better. From the time when each character was introduced with such unimaginable human-like attributes to the time when Buck Williams makes his heroic attempt to save Dr. Tsion Ben Judah. I believe that this is the best book I have ever read and even as I am writing I can not wait to read the next book in the series. It is action packed and full of drama and most of the ideas in the book are full of exciting details. I recommend this book to everyone who reads my review.

Summary: A good witnessing tool, but not a great suspense read
Review: This is an excellent witnessing tool for those with an interest in understanding the Book of the Apocalypse. However, this is not a very well done apocalyptic novel. The story is neither challenging nor suspenseful, the characters and plot simplistic. If you would prefer a truly quality Judgment Day suspense that delves into far more provocative issues than any in this series, read THE LAST DAY by Glenn Kleier, which is the unchallenged best novel in this genre, by far.

Summary: Pretty good...
Review: This was equal in thrillment as TRIBULATION FORCE. I don't like learing all the prophecy's; it's like knowing what's going to happen before it happens. I would read through this one fast because part 4, SOUL HARVEST, is so good!

Summary: Antichrist on the loose...
Review: "Nicolae" is an excellent continuation of this series. As before, this book picks up right where the last one left off. The humanitarian pacifist, Nicolae Carpatia, quickly begins to show his true colors and his hidden agenda for the Global Community. The mystery behind his roles for the tribulation force begins to develop. The execution of the seven seal judgements continues in this gripping novel. This is another page turner!

Summary: Welcome to eJesus.com!
Review: Yes, the sky may be falling, all the airports may be destroyed, and pestilence may be spreading across the Earth, but that doesn't stop the Tribulation Force from suddenly becoming the most wired citizens of the Global Community. Praise be for that 10-100 Ethernet connection. Three books into the "Left Behind" series, LaHaye and Jenkins decide that everyone's favorite unraptured ragtag band of evangelists suddenly needs cellular phones and wireless laptops, oh and don't forget a Land Rover. Apparently, God's work involves choosing a good Internet Service Provider. Sadly, this new digital-age materialism is the most compelling aspect of "Nicolae," which in every other regard, seems to have been phoned-in. The female characters continue to be simpering caricatures in Book Three-- every interaction with Chloe, Amanda, Loretta, or Hattie seems to revolve around crying, whining, histrionics, or homemaking. Sometimes all four at once. Yet the most annoying feature of LaHaye and Jenkins' Holy Posse rears its ugly Cerebus-head during the mens' chapters. You see, it appears that the neo-saints are never supposed to lie. This becomes clear from Buck's interactions with border guards and police during the escape scenes. When he is asked a question that he does not want to answer with a lie, he prevaricates--changing the subject or never quite answering. Which is, of course, fine. A real apocalypse martyr shouldn't stake his salvation on goodness and morality and then proceed to fib like Pinnochio. However, Buck has no problem using his fake identification and forged papers at every single border and every dangerous encounter with a guard. How exactly is this different? Then there is Rayford Steele's little Watergate-esque bug in the airplane he flies. The de facto leader of the Tribulation Force spends most of the book being duplicitous and listening in on his boss. Hmm... smells like moral relativism. Adopting a mendacious posture is the same as telling a falsehood, plain and simple. More to the point, it is revealing that the automatons in "Nicolae" do not have the capacity to see this dishonest behavior for what it is-- outright lying. My guess is that any real, momentous reflection on honesty and morals is beyond the author's ability, and by extension, beyond that of his contourless characters. But people don't read these books for their trenchant analysis of faith and piety. Leave that to Thomas Aquinas. People read the "Left Behind" books for the explosions and the eviscerated sinners. Sadly, the action in "Nicolae" is predictable and deathly dull; you'll be begging for the Rapture yourself after hundreds of plodding pages of Buck rescuing nebbishy Tsion Ben-Judah from Israel. Indeed, it is evident that while these passages were intended to be the fulcrum for the plotline, they read more like a vaudeville skit between a rabbi and a journalist driving a bus. Just imagine the lovechild of "Speed" and "Yentl" and you've captured the essence of this book.

Summary: Nicholae-better than Tribulation Force but...
Review: Still unneccessary repitition of the previous two, I think for filler. To little time spent developing the story line and to much time repeating past events. Some parts enjoyable as Buck attempts to save Tsion Ben-Juddah, however the writing is definitly not challenging and the story seems to go nowhere. Basically only one story line in this book a boring read. I will be looking to spend my money on something else. I give it a liberal 3 stars.

Summary: total excitment
Review: this is by far the best of the first 3 books in this series thus far. without giving anything away, the "edge of your seat" escape as well as the ending have hooked me completely. im so happy that i didnt give up on this series. if you are reading this as someone who has yet to begin the series, stick with it...it will be worth it. the writing of the 3rd book is a huge improvement over the first 2 and i eagerly await the next installment (which is being passed around the office...thank god im next, or i'd have to go buy a copy for myself!) one more thing....i myself am not a religious person and i know a lot of people who arent religious are reading these books. i am reading this series for entertainment value and in this 3rd book, i am completely entertained!

Summary: Praise God for these books.
Review: The Spirit of God moves to convict those who would worship in faith and truth. Best selling novelist Jerry Furland adds to the mix in a way that will blow the minds of even the most hard hearted cynic. Different in so many ways from Lahaye, Furland's "Transfer-the end of the beginning" is yet another sword to slay the heart into repentance and absolution while repentance is still available. I believe Furland will gather many souls for Christ whether that was his intent or not. God's intent is clear-that none may perish. Read all of the Left Behind series-I already have. Read Furland also. This is the book you can pass to the non-ecclesiastic and then answer all the questions that this book will inspire. Tremendous. Dashing cold water on the complacent and somnambulent. Furland is a wake up call in disguise of a thriller.
