Jenkins: Left Behind has averaged 20,000 sales a month for two years, and the first sequel, Tribulation Force, has done the same for a year. The newest in what will become a 7-book series, Nicolae, was released August 20 and will soon have 180,000 in print. We have sold the film rights to Left Behind and are grateful for all the positive response. Customer Comments: Where is this world headed? Left Behind deals with the rapture of the church. The chaos that will errupt with many people disappearing at the same time. Truth and Lies will be exposed. This book is well written and will hold the interest of both the young and oldergeneration. So far there are three in the series. Each book is great. I would suggest that you get all three because youwill not want to wait to continue and find out what happens next. My 21 year old and I read all three books in less than two weeks. We both enjoyed the book and cannot wait until the next book is written. I am looking into getting this book on tape for the ones in my family that would rathar listen than read. It is really a wonderful book that spans all generations. (Rating=10)

by Tim Lahaye, Jerry B. Jenkins (Sequel to Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth's Last Days listed above.) Paperback, 450 pages Synopsis: In this sequel to the bestseller Left Behind, Rayford Steele and Cameron Williams find themselves pressed into services for the man they believe could be the antichrist. Nicolae Carpathia takes over the United Nations, signs a peace treaty with Israel, and begins to lure the nations of earth together to form one global village. Meanwhile, the judgement of God begins to fall on the earth. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Reader Review: The characters from Left Behind, the first book in this series, are tracked in the days following the great "disappearances". The hard nosed reporter, an airline pilot and their friends are thrust into international events leading to a world dominating dictator, forced suppression of independent thought, and extrordinary events in the land of Israel. Events referenced in Bible prophecy are made alive and exciting as the small group of people (Tribulation Force) place themselves in positions to be most effective for God as the times move to catastrophe. The futuristic story has enough human interest to keep you turning pages, and even guessing at the outcomes. Of course, the story stops where book three in the series will start. It is a quick and enjoyable read.
