A Review of the Book "Left Behind" by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins


Title: Left Behind
Author: Tim LaHaye
Publisher: Tyndale House Publishers, Inc
Year: 1995
473 pages

From the Back: Panic surges through a Heathrow-bound Boeing 747 as some passengers and crew vanish, along with millions worldwide. Captain Rayford Steele fights to quell hysteria while facing personal tragedy - his wife and son are among the missing. Rumors fly, and fanatics warn about the end of the world. Could they be right? Meanwhile, crack journalist Cameron "Buck" Williams on the trail of a global financial conspiracy, finds a more ominous story unfolding as storm clouds of good and evil gather.

Personal Thoughts: I have been hearing a lot about the Left Behind series and have been wavering about starting a series of books. But when it came up in one of the biblical commentaries I was reading, I figured that was my sign. I'm choosing to read this series through our local library rather than purchase it. I have zero regrets! The book was amazing and I couldn't put it down. The story is fast paced and exciting with parallels story lines that you are wondering where they are leading but then come together quite nicely. The only regret I have is how long I have to wait between books as I call them from the library!
