Book Reviews of Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth's Last Days (Left Behind #1)
Book Review: This is one GREAT series...
Summary: 5 Stars
WOW! That is what I said when I first started this series a few years ago. It was so great, that I couldn't wait to go and buy the next book. It is written so well, that you look forward to reading what happens to each character. Sometimes I found myself skipping to the next chapters just to find out what happens. This is the second time I am reading it, the whole series, that is, and I love it more. I had forgotten a few details, but everything came back to me as I was going along in the series. I recommend this book to those who want to catch a glimpse of what can and probably will happen, after the rapture. Of course, on one knows what exactly will happen, but this is a taste of what might happen if those who are left behind might find themselves facing. It's a wake up call to those who do believe too. I am so excited to know that I belong to Christ and I can't wait for His return. I pray everyday He comes soon. I pray that many more will find Him, but this world is becoming more and more difficult to live in. I can't believe there are those who say they believe in God and they live the way they want to and then when they are left behind, then they wonder, why that happened to them. I hope they will get right with Christ before they ever have to go through any of that. Praise God for Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye for starting this series, as to open the eyes of those that don't know at all what will happen, or to those who have their eyes closed and know it might happen, and to get the real believers to pray more for Christ's return, to get His bride out of here. Time is running out people. Get right with God and don't be "Left Behind"...
Summary of Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth's Last Days (Left Behind #1)
An airborne Boeing 747 is headed to London when, without any warning, passengers mysteriously disappear from their seats. Terror and chaos slowly spread not only through the plane but also worldwide as unusual events continue to unfold. For those who have been left behind, the apocalypse has just begun.A repackage of the New York Times best-selling novel Left Behind.
Piloting his 747, Rayford Steele is musing about his wife Irene's irritating religiosity and contemplating the charms of his "drop-dead gorgeous" flight attendant, Hattie. First Irene was into Amway, then Tupperware, and now it's the Rapture of the Saints--the scary last story in the Bible in which Christians are swept to heaven and unbelievers are left behind to endure the Antichrist's Tribulation. Steele believes he'll put the plane on autopilot and go visit Hattie. But Hattie's in a panic: some of the passengers have disappeared! The Rapture has happened, abruptly driverless cars are crashing all over, and the slick, sinister Romanian Nicolae Carpathia plans to use the UN to establish one world government and religion. Resembling "a young Robert Redford" and silver-tongued in nine languages, Carpathia is named People's "Sexiest Man Alive." (This reviewer, a former People writer, finds this plot twist plausible.) Meanwhile, Steele teams up with Buck Williams, a buck-the-system newshound, to form the Tribulation Force, an underground of left-behind penitents battling the Antichrist.
Ex-presidential candidate Pat Robertson briefly outsold Michael Crichton with his apocalypse novel The End of the Age (now available on audiocassette), and the similar The Third Millennium sells well, but the Left Behind series is the absolute champion in the race to make the Book of Revelation into racy thriller reading. --Tim Appelo
