From the Back Cover
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.
Left Behind launched the best-selling series that rocked the publishing world and made millions seriously consider the future. Is it just the beginning . . . or the beginning of the end?
With special features relating to current events and end-times prophecy.

About the authors

Dr. Tim LaHaye (www.timlahaye.com), who conceived the idea of fictionalizing an account of the Rapture and the Tribulation, is a noted author, minister, and nationally recognized speaker on Bible prophecy. He is the founder of both Tim LaHaye Ministries and The PreTrib Research Center. He also recently cofounded the Tim LaHaye School of Prophecy at Liberty University. Presently Dr. LaHaye speaks at many Bible prophecy conferences in the U.S. and Canada, where his current prophecy books are very popular.
Dr. LaHaye holds a doctor of ministry degree from Western Theological Seminary and a doctor of literature degree from Liberty University. For 25 years he pastored one of the nation's outstanding churches in San Diego, which grew to three locations. It was during that time that he founded two accredited Christian high schools, a Christian school system of ten schools, and San Diego Christian College (formerly known as Christian Heritage College).
Dr. LaHaye has written over 50 non-fiction books and co-authored 25 fiction books, many of which have been translated into 34 languages. He has written books on a wide variety of subjects, such as family life, temperaments, and Bible prophecy. His most popular fiction works, the Left Behind series, written with Jerry B. Jenkins, continue to appear on the best-seller lists of the Christian Booksellers Association, "Publishers Weekly," the "Wall Street Journal," "USA Today," and the "New York Times."
Another popular series by LaHaye and Jenkins is The Jesus Chronicles. This four-book fiction series gives readers a rich first century experience as John, Mark, Luke, and Matthew recount thrilling accounts of the life of Jesus. Dr. LaHaye is co-author of another fiction series, Babylon Rising. Each of the four titles in this series have debuted in the top 10 on the New York Times best seller list. These are suspense thrillers with thought-provoking messages.

Author of more than 195 books with sales of over 70 million copies, including the best-selling Left Behind series, Jerry B. Jenkins is former vice president for publishing and former chairman of the board of trustees for the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.
Jerry's writing has appeared in Time, Reader's Digest, Parade, Guideposts, and dozens of Christian periodicals. Twenty-one of his books have reached The New York Times best-seller list (seven debuting number one).
Jerry owns the Jerry Jenkins Writers Guild, through which he trains writers online at www.JerryJenkins.com.

I found it entertaining and educational at the same time. I look forward to continue this story. Note I did read this book and many others in the series, however never finished it. That is why I started it again, I hope to complete the notice series.
I would recommend this book and series of books to every Christisn but especially to those new born Christians as it will assist you in your walk with the Lord.
I must admit, I'm not a church goer, not much of a religious man, not a believer... (yet), I'm a 62 year old man, maybe as I get older I'm looking for "more" after dying. LOL, I've begun thinking about death now that I'm older and it gets closer! When I was younger I NEVER thought of death. Now I'm thinking it's time to look into this more with an open mind. I've got a bible from when I was 12 years old, maybe it's time to start reading it.
Anyways, I enjoyed reading Left Behind, enough to buy the series so I could continue reading about it all. If you think you'll like it (odds are you will) then buy the series and get a bargain! It's here on Amazon , just search for Left Behind Series.
Hope this helps you. Sorry if I was rambling on... back to reading!

Second, it isn't terribly well written, in the sense in which it might be judged in a creative writing class. The main failing is that on a number of occasions there are LONG passages of direct speech, in which a character tells someone a number of things which the READER already knows, and which are therefore not good writing technique. Another thing for which I expect the author might be criticised in a class is a failure to SELECT material; he finds it necessary to tell us everything that happens to the characters on the days in question.
That being said. I rather enjoyed it and intend to buy the next one at some point to find out what happens next.
