Summary: YOU WON'T WANT TO PUT IT DOWN!
Review: Having read the "Left Behind" series carefully up until "Assassin", I found this one extremely interesting. I suppose it was sounding more accurately portrayed due to the author's scientific background.Historical novels not well researched bother me and this one, which is both historical and history making, has obviously been extremely well researched. I have lived in the Middle East during the rise of the present troubles and knew it had to be. Especially I appreciated that it was riveting but only for 3 volumes. Couldn't put them down. Let's hope his next book will be totally different and not dragging out one theme until one is beginning to be turned off. It is graphic and sometimes very gory, but then that is what I believe will happen being clearly spelled out in the Holy Scriptures. This subject can't be anything but that way and I know that many people have been literally scared into the Truth and they will be spared the experiences that these people had by that in time. We are warned! Bravo, Cary! Don't let anything or anybody stop your message from going out.

Summary: Republication of this Trilogy excellent
Review: I do not normally list reviews or thoughts on books I read, but the previous reviewers message demanded that I file a review of my own because I believe in this trilogy as do those I have shared it with.
I initially read this trilogy before republication and it indeed needed some work. But the new 2004 editions were excellently reproduced. Do not be dismayed by reviews from those with the old editions...you will not be disappointed with The Last Gentile or the other two books in the series!
Very biblically and scientifically sound scenerios and plots, as well as many memorable characters, make the series very engaging and hard to put down!

Summary: good story idea- horribly presented
Review: I had to stop reading several times to check to see if there had been an editor. The idea for the story was entertaining, but the language and grammar sub par. Character development non-existent with biblical historical believability rated at zero.

Summary: Better than the Left Behind Series
Review: I totally enjoyed this book. It's fiction based on facts from the Bible. Unlike the Left Behind series, this series has characters I like and care about. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of poor editing (lack of commas, periods, wrong words (i.e., though instead of thought, when instead of where, etc.)), which I blame on the editor/publishing company. Aside from that, this book is fast moving, interesting, and just plain better than Left Behind. I highly recommend this series.

Summary: Surprisingly excellent
Review: I was surprised at how much I enjoyed reading this book. Bybee has a gift for drawing you into the lives of the characters. I can't wait to read the next in the series. As one reviewer wrote, the editing was not exactly perfect, but it doesn't distract from the story. I believe a newer edition of the Last Gentile is due out in January, so these problems will be gone. I am a fan of the Left Behind Series, but I would rank this author higher. His characters are more in depth, and he is more bold in his descriptions of events. This book isn't just another in a long line of End of the World novels....it definitely has its own flare. Don't hesitate to give this book and this author a chance. You won't be disappointed!

Summary: Solid Alternative to "Left Behind"
Review: Interesting read. I thought Mr. Bybee did a better job of developing characters than the "Left Behind" series. I liked how the first book was centered around the main character who was not a Christian but constantly seeking and searching. The book also involves angelic messengers which certainly graphically illustrate how there are unseen beings (good and bad) that are integral parts of each of our lives. (Ephesians Chapter 6: 12). I knocked the book down one star because of nagging spelling and grammatical errors. (Not that I am without sin in this regard.) But the book certainly should have been proof-read far better. The other odd thing that got me was that whatever a character was thinking but left unspoken was continually put into quotation marks. Just seemed a bit strange. That being said, I have the next two books to read in the sseries. Thank you Mr. Bybee for having all the books available at once and not making the audience and I wait months and years for the sequels. I look forward to book 2, especially since at the end of book 1, many of the characters were off the scene, so to speak.

Summary: Better than Left Behind
Review: This book has such a wide range of appeal that it will hook the reader on many different levels. I personally am not an extremely religious person, but the way the book is written enables both religious and non-religious alike to become thoroughly engrossed in the story and characters. The author is obviously well versed in the accuracy of the religious factors described in the book, but what interested me even more was the angle he takes as a scientist. He obviously did a lot of research, of both religion and science, before writing this book. When you read this book, hold on for an extremely interesting and thought provoking ride. You won't be dissapointed!
