Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Really Really Good
Review: After reading The Christ Clone Trilogy for a class, I realized how true they are. James BeauSeigneur has described the future and even though his books are fiction it's hard to imagine how else the predictions of prophecy will come true if not as he describes them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Christopher was AWESOME!
Review: It is difficult to put in words the power of BeauSeigneur's The Christ Clone Trilogy holds without the grave risk of understating. Using real events to pull the reader into the story (or as another reviewer put it - invading my real world and turning it on its head), BeauSeigneur has created the scariest, deepest, most intesting, and undoubtedly the best book I've read in a long time. When I started In His Image, I couldn't put it down. When I finished Acts of God, I immediately began to reading the series again. Even now, after I've finnaly somewhat gotten over it, there are still some nights I can't sleep thinking about this unbelievably incredible book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT BOOKS but expect to be surprised!!!
Review: These are great books but if you don't read all 3, don't think you know what's really going on. I don't want to spoil anything for you so I'll just say Christians won't be disappointed. One thing, if you get totally freaked out if characters say a few bad words now and then, stick to Left Behind.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfect for readers of LEFT BEHIND!!!
Review: THE CHRIST CLONE TRILOGY is the perfect addition for readers of the LEFT BEHIND series. See the Tribulation from the other side with an Antichrist you'd be proud to take home to meet mom and dad. He's just sooooo good at being bad! But hang in there, the truth comes out in the end. I loved the TRILOGY so much I'm going to read it again while I wait for THE REMNANT to come out!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Riveting!
Review: I had no idea when I picked up this series that there was anyone as entirely brilliant as James BeauSeigneur writing in this genre. The way in which he weaves his apocalypse is as elegant as it is amazing. Beginning his story with historical events, BeauSeigneur brings his reader along ever so gently into a world of incredible fiction that he makes entirely credible. BeauSeigneur's use of footnotes was at first a bit unsettling but I came to realize the author was less interested in pulling me into his fictional world and far more interested in invading my real world and turning it on its head. I can honestly say that never has my waking life been more disturbed by a work of fiction. BeauSeigneur is a master.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Prophecy anchored in the real world!
Review: Unlike Left Behind and most other fiction books on prophecy, The Christ Clone Trilogy is anchored in the real world. This gives it a sense of authenticity that other books/series are missing. In light of current events, I was particularly struck by the way BeauSeigneur fulfills some of the Seal judgments of Revelation with a war between India and Pakistan, which ultimately goes nuclear and draws in China. I was very impressed with In His Image and will definitely buy the other two books of the trilogy.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Unimaginative, listless "Fiction"
Review: I came here because fans of this series of books have apparently taken it upon themselves to recommend this book in addition to / instead of what must be hundreds of other books. In the case of books that are cliche, unoriginal and uninspiring, this is a good "In addition to" recommendation -- One might as well read two bad books as opposed to one. For books that the author attempts to tell an actual story with characters that aren't straight out of a cookie-cutter, even putting this book's name on the same page is a crime.

What was especially amusing are the recommendations for this book itself. Apparently 17 of the buffoons from the total "Buffoon Recommandation Patrol" think I should buy "In His Image (Book One of The Christ Clone Trilogy)" instead of "In His Image (Book One of The Christ Clone Trilogy)" I could see one person making a mistake like that, but 17 people? Is there an epidemic of stupidity going around?

Oh back to the book. It was predicatable. It was contrite. It was for boring in stretches of sometimes 52 pages. There was absolutely no character development.

In short, it would be far more time-efficient to take 15 dollars and set it on fire.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Either way, these are great books.
Review: In the Christ Clone Trilogy James BeauSeigneur has given us a much more believable depiction of the end of the age than that provided by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins in Left Behind. For those of us who believe that something like this really is in our future, the Christ Clone Trilogy provides believable answers to nearly all our prophecy questions. For those who see Revelation prophecy as the stuff of legend and fantasy, the trilogy is a page-turning, surprise-a-minute, what-if techno-thriller. Either way, these are great books.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: NOT in His image.
Review: As a big fan of the "Left Behind" series by Jenkins and LaHaye I thought that I hit it big when I saw another series of books that I thought delt with a Christian topic. I sure was wrong! THESE BOOKS ARE NOT BASED ON CHRISTIANITY! Not only that, but the writing is horrible.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A unique view of end times prophesy
Review: This is a very intelligently written novel. Mr. BeauSeigneur presents a very believable story that captures the present world political climate. His scenario of the strife in Israel with its Arab neighbors that escalates to terrorists destroying the Wailing Wall and then the Dome on the Rock took my breath away with how easy it would be for these events to lead to the rebuilding of the Temple. Descriptions of upcoming world events fortold in the book of Revelations are given a evening news feel rather than a sermon feel. People who aren't Christians in the book don't go around shouting that the end is near. Mr. BeauSignuer has done a great job of making holy scripture of the end of days into a picture not too removed from our own present world.
