Summary: HE'S A SLIMEBALL, BUT IT'S A GOOD BOOK.
Review: You know it's a good book you're reading when you have a physical and/or an emotional reaction to the characters or what they're doing, when you can almost feel how and what they feel. I was so repulsed by the way this guy was and acts, and now... This is one of the best books ever written. I so wish I could divulge some of the plot to you, but I can't, so you just have to read it on your own. But let me tell you something, if you're not saved, this book will probably make you hate the Anti-Christ, which is good, because you see what he really is like. This is exactly how the Bible says he will be, disguised as an angel of light, and really promotes peace for the timebeing, but really has war in his heart. Like Pringles, once the fun pops, you can't stop. Once you pick up this book, you can't put it down.

Summary: Gripping!
Review: How anyone can put this one down is beyond me. It has the pace of a Clancy novel, it has the story to, quite literally, end all stories, and the best part is that its just a part of the series, there's more to come! Being a fan of apocalyptic good v. evil type of stuff, I thought it would be a good book. Boy is that the understatement of the year. I went out and bought all the others before I even finished this one. I can't even tell you how gripping the novel is. It impossible to put down. It brings fears that many people have to reality and really gives us quite an image of how bad things really are. You can't help but root for the Trib Force as they struggle against Nicolae, the Antichrist. Buy it, then make your friends buy it. It's quite a good story that can really bring out the best in people.

Summary: Excellent Book
Review: I have read this book, It is well worth reading. I am on the last book called The Assassins now. It is very well worth reading.

Summary: Gripping second half!
Review: The first half of this book was slow and seamless. Compare to "Left Behind", "Nicolae" was a much more disappointing read. However, the second half of the novel picks up speed. The escape from Isreal and the description of the "Wrath of the Lamb" were very exciting and put me at the edge of my seat. Although the writing was rather weak, the novelists leaves the readers with a profound image of what is to come and a lot to think about.

Summary: On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this a 10...
Review: A must read for anyone interested in the last days. Very interesting insight from the authors.

Summary: Nicolea a great novel and the greatest villian of all time!
Review: Let me start by saying I love this series! Nicolea: The Rise of Antichrist is a great novel for both believers and none believers,but I feel that the title might decieve people who might read it before any other leftbehind novel, and believe its the only novel in the series you can judge Nicolae's villiany from. But each novel before and after Nicolea reveals someting new about his evil nature that will but him in to a darker light then you might have put him in before. I don't care what your moral beliefs are if you have read all of these novels then you would have to agree with me that Nicolea is the greatest villian ever created!

Summary: A book and a series that I could not put down!
Review: Nicolae Carpathia is a man moving to world power. The thirdbook in the Left Behind series follows the previous with charactersand points. This book, along with the others in the series, is a must read for our times. For anyone searching for answers, this book can set you on the right path. Well-written, with good biblical references, it was a joy to read!

Summary: Makes you think about Revelations
Review: This series is wonderful for illuminating the Book of Revelations which is the least intelligible Book of the Bible. By taking it literally and building a fictional plot around it, you're given a way in. Obviously, there's no telling if the authors are right or wrong. What's important is, these books send you back to the Bible to think. I had thought that only Left Behind would be any good - It truly is a disturbing book leaving every reader wondering if, should there be a Rapture, would I be left behind? Like the old question, if someone wanted to persecute me for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict me? I had assumed the rest of the series would suffer from sequelitis, but actually, because they are moving through Revelations, they are page turners. Unfortunately, the authors put themselves in an impossible situation at the end of this one -- They show an earthquake so powerful, civilization could not possibly survive it, yet it's clear from the reviews of the next books, the damage becomes a minor inconvenience. Sorry, guys, but the next books would have to take place in the rubble! However, I suppose it's a minor glitch in an other wise riproaring series.

Summary: Works right into it's sequel, Soul Harvest.
Review: Despite the few nay-sayers of LaHaye & Jenkins' writings of the Left Behind series, I must give it my stamp of approval. The content on the antichrist is enough to make anyone straighten up and fly right, before it's too late. In this sequel to Tribulation Force, after being "Left Behind", the characters now find themselves clinging to the word of God so they are not fooled into accepting the antichrist.

Summary: Get ready for the mother of all battles!
Review: Read this book! Read the series! It will fill you with dread but give you hope to overcome. Share it with your relatives. Share it with your friends. Even share it with your enemies. It's that important -- especially now with what is happening in Europe.
