My friend loaned me these books to read and I am telling you, I am so immersed in them. They are based on the rapture and what will happen here on earth, the time of tribulation and so on. I don't necessarily believe in the rapture but these books will certainly keep you glued to the pages. I read Left Behind in about 4 days and now I am reading Tribulation Force, then I will read Nicolae the third book. So have you guys even heard of these books or have you read them? If you haven't, even if you aren't too into religion, or anything they are such a good read, kind of borders on sci-fi and mystery as well!

Very good read indeed,I'm about to start the forth book The Soul Harvest Tim Lahaye and Jerry B.Jenkins did a great job on the story line I love it.From Capt.Steele And Amanda and Buck and Chloe and Rabbi Tsion Ben-Judah,Nicolae,Katie just a great cast of people can't wait to get to the forth book.The thrid book I thought was a little slow but it was still great because they set you up with the story in the first too enjoy your read.I need to keep in touch with you and see how you like the books lets be friends.

Hey one2love, as you know I was not able to get Tribulation Force and feel kind of slighted after reading Nicolae and not being totally informed of how things came to be in part three. You mind filling me in on Trib force ?

sorry it has taken me so long to respond! I absolutely love the books! I am reading The Indwelling right now and let me tell you, it's getting pretty good! You will love the next books. I know what you mean about that third book being a bit slow. I also got a little tired about reading the political line up in the story, but it was important to the plot so I suffered through it. I tried to add you as a friend, but I think my internet has been acting up, my screen froze, so I will try again!

They are a great set of books. I have read most all of them, and I am still hungry for more. You just seem to get attached to the characters in the books. I just love it!

I have read all of them except the last one. And as soon as I find some free time I am going to read it too. I love those books. I couldn't put them down once I started reading them. I think they are probably the best books I have ever read.

I have not read the books, but I did see the first movie and it was very interesting. Of course, the antiChrist had to be the "evil white guy" when we have no idea who he would be and I doubt he would be, because in order to be an antiChrist you would have to be of a race above suspicion and well, us white people have been portrayed as villains so many time, that a white guy would be the first suspect.

Wow. I think the antichrist is Romanian. He's a pretty scary guy that is for sure.

No problem, there is one problem that I encountered with the books and that was the politics, but it is important to read those parts so you will get an idea of what is going to happen next. I hope you enjoy the books as much as I do.

I have read every single one of them. Once you start them you have to finish just to know what happens in the end. I absolutely loved them.

I am beginning to see that! I really am getting into the novels. I am almost finished with Tribulation Force and ready to begin the next one. My girlfriend says she has more of the books so I will just give her these back and get some more. LOL, she's like my library right now!

These books are kind of odd reading material, and I thought I would not be interested in them either, but my friend encouraged me to read them so I did as a favor to her. I am engrossed in them now! But as with any book, you have to have a taste for reading this type of subject or you won't like it. Thanks for responding!

I have to say you have to have a taste for the books. At first I had some trouble getting into it but after a bit, I really started getting engrossed. Thanks for the response!
