I have read and own all books currently out (34 right now). This one, the latest one, is my favorite so far. It contains devolpments in Judd and Lionel's quest to find a way home, a new hiding place for the believers in the Dial home, and even a vist from a prophetic angel. Judd and Lionel are almost home when they run into, guess what?, bounty hunters. The book ends with you wondering what will happen to them both.

I have always enjoyed the adult series of Left Behind books. The kids books are just as good. The kids interact with the characters from the adult series, experience the same events, etc. However, since the main characters are teens, these books can appeal to younger readers. So far, the stories haven't had the ups and downs that the adult series has had. The adult series has books that are a lot more boring than others. The kids series seems to be good in every book. These are not for really young kids, but would be appropriate for young teens. I enjoy them and I am an adult.

I have just completed the box set containing books 31-35 and I am relieved that the author has attempted to deal with the topic of teen and young adult romance. I know that christian youngsters have all the same emotions as other teens and the difference is in how they have been taught to handle those feelings not to avoid the reality of their feelings.
I enjoy this series very much and I hope that character development continues to be a key priority as the facts of the Bible won't change but the journey of people you identify with will promote interest in Christ, Bible study and desire to create and become part of a church family.

Judd and Lionel are desperately trying to get back home to Vicki and the others. They can't ever seem to, and this time they run into unbelievers, searching for believers without the mark. Will they ever make it home? And will the kids back at the Dial hideout stay or face the strange warning? Follow the kids through the toughest period in history. This is a good book, it kept me on the edge of my seat and wanting Book #35, The Rise of False Messiahs (this book is now available, along with Book #36, Ominous Choices.) The recommended ages for these books are ages 10-14. I've liked this series and it's very informative about the rapture, the Tribulation, and the Great Tribulation.
