5.0 out of 5 stars An emotional read., May 3 2003

This review is from: Armageddon: The Cosmic Battle of the Ages (Hardcover)

I don't agree with the people who say this series has dragged on too long. I wait eagerly for each book to come out. This book was so emotional, I found myself crying at certain parts. The writers have a talent for making the reader become attached to the characters. I have read these books through a few times and plan to do it again.

I recommend this book, but one should read the previous books in the series first to better understand the storyline.

Maranatha!

2.0 out of 5 stars A failure, July 8 2004

By

This review is from: Armageddon: The Cosmic Battle of the Ages (Paperback)

I am an ardent believer in Christ, but that does not mean that anything written about Christianity should be endorsed and embraced regardless of its quality. I have read all 12 of these novels and they simply aren't very good. The writing is poor, the plot unimaginative, and there certainly isn't anything in these books that will cause a Christian to re-examine and thus more fully embrace our beliefs. Look, I don't doubt that the authors had the best intentions with these books, but quality has to count for something. There are better alternatives out there. Try We All Fall Down by Caldwell. It's well-written and extreimly intelligent. If you're going to read about Christianity, read something that is worth your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the BEST of the Left Behind books!, April 15 2003

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Armageddon: The Cosmic Battle of the Ages (Hardcover)

I've read all eleven...and can't wait for #12. ARMAGEDDON was fast paced and riveting. I read all 383 pages in less than a 24-hour time frame. I couldn't put it down! Chloe captured! What will be her fate? And who died in the literal cliff-hanger? Rayford or Buck? What a masterfully sneaky use of the word "he". Bah-humbug to the grumblers who say the series is too long...or that the entire story isn't contained in one large book. The LEFT BEHIND series has brought me closer to God by vicariously experiencing the characters' resolve, strength, and FAITH in the face of pain, fear, and even death. One thing I particularly liked in ARMAGGEDON was the re-explaining of each different End-Time judgment. Like most people, Revelations has always been a puzzle, so the LEFT BEHIND series has truly been a God-send for explaining the meaning of each Bowl Judgment, color of Horse, etc. I also appreciate that LaHaye and Jenkins don't paint a rosy picture of things being all hunky-dory for God's kids. Bad things happen to us, too. The only difference between us and the world is that we can survive rough times because of the strength from Jesus, the comfort of the Comforter, and the hope of the Glorious Appearing! Excellent explanation to Jewish people why Jesus is the Messiah. Excellent explanation of how, and why, to accept Jesus as your personal Savior. Wish I could have given it Ten Stars!

A lot of the reviews I have read of these books tend to put it down by comparing it to other end of the world books. Read more
