Summary: One spoon at a time
Review: I have been reading this series for years. How did I get trapped in this?

Good news! I found a new trilogy, all the books are out at once, and it has an ending. I think this new series by author Cary R. Bybee is going to be the trilogy of the year. It is great, and it is in paper back or hard back.

I read the first book expecting some sort of Left Behind clone, but it was incredible, full of scary stuff, romance, supernatural events, and natural science woven into it. Each book got better than the one before. The trilogy is called "The Last Gentile," "Deacon's Horn," and "The Final Witness." Thumbs up to Cary Bybee for taking the time to get it right.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A fantastic series!
Review: So far this has been an awesome series that has glorified God. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the end times. Also be sure to read 'Conquest of Paradise' and 'In His Image', both are among the best end times books I've ever read. 'Armageddon' was great! The scenario is breathtaking, and I can't wait for the conclusion of the Left Behind Series with book twelve. It will be interesting to see how LaHaye and Jenkins illustrate the beauty of the Second Coming!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Why bother when others do it so much better?
Review: Left Behind is a fairly decent series, but that's all. The writing is pedestrian and the theological concepts almost nonexistent. I could understand why people bought this series when it ws the best there was to offer, but now, with We All Fall Down, The Christ clone books, and Conquest of Paradise, all of which are simply much better books, why bother?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Greatly improved, and can hardly wait for #12
Review: Most of us have read this series from beginning to now, almost at the "Glorious Appearing"...

Tim and Jerry faltered a bit in style in the first few follow-ons but they finally achieved the happy medium needed for those who have never read the series and those of us who await each new volume.

The storyline was quick-paced and very interesting. I absolutely was enthralled with the ending. I am eagerly awaiting the 12th and final??? in this series.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: There's a better series out
Review: Greetings,

As a Left behind follower I can attest to the fact that these books are dry. They have really started to milk us fans. But good news, there is an extremely exciting new trilogy out. It is called The Last gentile trilogy. The books are The Last Gentile, Deacon's Horn, and The Final Witness. These books are nonstop action, romance, and suspence. From what I can see the writer obviously did his homework. They are very factual and scary. These books seem to transend every area of life, and the science blended into the book gives the reader a real sense of the terrifying side of the tribulation. I highly recommend Left Behind fans pick these books up. I noticed that they have only been out a month or so and have already begun to climb the ... charts.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Tribulation Force pays a heavy price
Review: All of the previous books in this series lead to the defining moment when Carpathian's army takes on the people of God in the Battle of Armageddon. The battle rages and the cost is high. Several members of the Tribulation Force who have been waiting for the Glorious Appearance of Jesus with great anticipation, are not allowed to live long enough to see it. This 11th. book of the series is more intimate (closely following the capture and imprisonment of a prominent character) and more compelling (with descriptions of the events leading up to and beginning the battle) than in the most recent books. The authors are not the best writers in the world, but they do tell an important story in terms that 21st. century people can understand. They seem to be meeting a need of the reading public because these books consistantly top the best-seller list.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: a little slow
Review: Every book in the series I can't seem to put down, but this one, along with the past few, is running a little slow. Only one major thing is happening in this book.....things are dragging!! They only have a year left until the end, there's got to be more that could be happening?!?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Armageddon: Left Behind # 11
Review: I really love all the "Left Behind" books. But Armageddon is definately one of the best ones, and yes it is a cliff hanger. I was very surprised at many of the things that happened. I definatly recommend reading thesse books.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: It Never Ends
Review: This series of books just keeps going on and on with no end in site. The story gets weaker and weaker with each book. When the authors started making money with the series they obviously decided to stretch the series out as long as possible to reap all the money they could. I've seen this happen to other series I've read, and they have taken what was a great start and instead of finishing it they put it on life support and let it turn into a vegetable. Do us all a favor and pull the plug!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Becoming a bit drawn out, but still good
Review: I have to agree with several reviewers here who have pointed out that this story is begining to feel a bit padded. A good story needs to make the reader feel as though they are being pulled along with it, and this is rapidly causing me to loose that sensation. Still, I find myself enjoying the story and curious about what will happen next, so the authors are obviously succeeding on some levels with this series. It might not be as compelling as Caldwell's We All Fall Down or several other quality novels that explore the same teritory, but if you've read this far, I'd recomend picking this book up.
