The book Left Behind #18- "Darkening Skies" is a great book. It's about four kids who were originally Left Behind of the rapture of god's people. This is book number eighteen out of thirty-six. The 17th book was a thriller as they were on their trip to Israel. The 17th ends in suspense as nobody can find Tyson Ben-Judah. The 18th book tells about Judd in Israel and where Melissa can be found. In Israel, Judd finds a new friend, Samuel. Judd is betrayed by Samuel and runs into the Global Community. Will he escape the G.C., why did Samuel betray Judd, and two more of the Young Trib Force's friends die. Who? Find out by reading "Darkening Skies," the 18th Left Behind book.

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'm actually reading book #11, second time around, and just ordered 19, 20, 21, & 22. By the time I get 19 & 20 I'll be finished with 18 again. Incidentally, I also just ordered the adult book #10 having read all the predecessors. I just can't stop reading these books once I start. Whoever said the "kids" books were up to age 12 forgot that they speak truth to all ages. I'm 62 years old with graduate degrees and they sure do hit my hot button. I hope they just keep coming! I love them.
