Rating  - PART OF THE LEFT BEHIND SERIES
This is one of the later books in the Left Behind Series. Similar to all the others. Fortunately is a story in itself, so if you don't get the whole series you can still get a good read.
Rating  - Oye!
I've read this series over and over. It's a good easy reading and I think most of the books are good. I don't agree with the writer and the fundamentalist point of view. I don't see how you can get a whole theroy for a "Rapture event" out of one passage of scripture but, whatever. I'm a Chrstian, that's probably why I basically like these. But, this book in particular shows how whimpy a leader Rayford Steele is. They should've put Albie in charge. He was willing to do what was necessary to get the job done. Steels' only concern seems to be whether he can pull rank and be above others that really should be incharge. I find is VERY annoying they all refer to him as "Captain" Steele; "leader in his own mind" and the writers didn't do him justice. I know he's an airline captain but now they're giving it underlying military significance. That's a stretch. He doesn't even want to arm his subordinates against the enemy and he doesn't want to do what's necessary to keep his people alive. That and he thinks it's his call to tell them if they should defend themselves or just get slaughtered. It's a ludicrous idea. Thinking people, with faith or without, would neither follow a man like that or put up with him, I wouldn't. I also was, and have been, very annoyed by the "Mac" character. Not by him persea but at the fact that they've changed him. When we frist meet Mac he's a well spoken Co-pilot. There's NO Texan twang and or verbology to him. Then all of the sudden he's talking like a hick (no offense inteded) speaking like he's never spoken before. This is a prime example of the authors not following their own formula and remembering their own characters. I think around book 5 you start seeing Mac and noticing he's not talking like he was in the beginning. It's annoying! How could the authors not read back and re-aquaint themselves with their own characters before continuing the series?! There were some good points to this book but it definately wasn't their best work. Chloe is as annoying as usual, a basic brat. The more I re-read the series the more aggrevated I get.
Rating - I don't know if I can keep going
It has taken me two months to read this book, it never takes me that long to read 1 freaking book. I had to force myself to read it and I was trying to finish this series by the end of the year, doesn't look like it's going to happen..The authors should be ashamed of themselves for milking people by dragging this story out. I hope they don't think they can take all the money with them. And I refused to pay full price of any of the books, so I'm not contributing to their wealth. Thank God for library book sales.
Rating  - Apocolypse Stories
Another one of those Christian Fictions that bespeaks doom and destruction for all who don't turn their lives over to Jesus. If you can get past the religious psychobabble, its a good book. Otherwise, Buddha is a much better choice and his followers are typically less intolerant and war-like.
