Desecration

Publisher's Summary

In the thrilling ninth book of the best-selling inspirational series of all time, the sweeping, apocalyptic saga of the end times on planet earth continues. Twenty-five days into the Great Tribulation, the horror and suffering in the world is intensifying. The Antichrist Nicolae Carpathia, now the complete embodiment of evil, is preparing to desecrate the holy temple in Jerusalem by entering and declaring himself god.

Bad Reading

You need to listen to this book to make it through the rest of the series, but you will really appreciate Richard Ferrone after this.

Three stars is generous. I liked the story, but the narrator made it somewhat less than enjoyable. In all fairness to the narrator though, where was the producer?

Great book, great series, annoying narrator.

The first 7 books were narrated by the same person and then in 8 they switched to another who continued in this one (9). I don't usually have a problem with that and expected to get past it by the middle of #8. The two things that continue to annoy me is how he pronounces Zion and this weird breathy voice at the end of each sentence when reading the narrator portions. It's like he is trying to make it extra dramatic. For the most part he does a great job on the dialogue portions incorporating many different accents. I know this was recorded 15 years ago and hopefully Mr. Muller has honed his craft. Overall it's worth listening to. I am thankful for the audiobook version since I would never find time to sit down and read it otherwise.

fantastic again!

This series of books are absolutely captivating... I find myself listening to 1 early and then holding the other until I get closer to my next month's ability to took the others. and I'm totally looking forward to finishing the series. I hope everybody enjoys them as much as I do.

Another horrible narration by Muller

This is such a great story ruined by horrendous narration by Frank Muller. Carpathia sounds like Dracula, Fortunato sounds like a blend between a Boston collegian and a philly food truck owner. The silly country accents are so out of place. So distracting all the way through. Richard Ferrone was so much better at narrating this series.

narrative was not the best

story was great but the narrator had a strange inflection in the wrong places often.

Great book!

Loved the story, the narrator changing voices for the different characters was awesome. The story was read neither to fast nor to slow.

Great story

This was another great story however the narration was horrible! It was hard to distinguish between characters and what was up with the heavy breathing behind every other sentence?

Good!!!!!!

It constantly have me on my toes. This is a sure get. Hurry and get!

Awesome Series !!!

Have read the whole series, I Love these books, Highly Recommended !!! Don't Miss out !!
