![Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth's Last Days | [Tim LaHaye, Jerry B. Jenkins]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/517qDLvq95L._SL175_.jpg)
"Great series!"
OK - I normally read / listen to fantasy and science fiction. In fact, when I started listening to this series I was listening to Stephen King's The Dark Tower series and waiting for the Song of Susannah.
What an excellent surprise this was. I was pointed to this series by a friend and was at first skeptical, but gave it a try anyway just to see what it was like. The more I listened, the more excited I was to hear more. I am now five books into it and can't wait to get to the next one.
Even if you are not religious, you will enjoy this book and this series. It is well written, the characters are well developed, and the plot is great.
Pluses for the Christian reader - learn more about the prophecies of the end-times, jewish beliefs, and portions of scripture. Explore your relationship with Christ while hearing about what the characters are going through.
All around, a very very satisfying listen / read for me and I highly recommend it. Don't be scared off by the religious content if you are hesitant about that. And if you are attracted to the series because of the religious ties, you won't be disappointed, either.22 of 29 people found this review helpful
