It's NOT fantasy

This entire series is great cause it tells us what is coming in a dramatic way, it is not just another fantasy/horror book it is the Truth!!!!

Very very thought provoking

This was the best combination of suspense thriller, action novel, love story, and Christian testimonial I've ever read! Great spin and very inspiring. A must-read for true believers or anyone who is interested in biblical prophecy and how it all might unfold.

couldn't stop listening

Loved it, easy to follow, can't wait to read next one, so glad I'm ready to go now!

Entertaining, thought provoking, controversial

I will try and actually review the book, as opposed to providing my interpretation of the author's brand of Christianity.

It is not the best written book. The prose is interesting enough, but a little heavy handed at times. It is, however, thought provoking to be sure.

It is clear that the authors are "born-again." This is only a problem so much as knowing that Michael Moore is a "Marxist-Liberal". Since you know that going in, if you are open-minded, you will enjoy the book(s) that much more.

If you are at all interested in the book of "Revelations" from the New Testament, then these fictionalized accounts of the predicted end-times may spawn further, more tangible, investigations. These books on their own should be considered nothing more than entertainment -- which many, including myself, have found them to be.

Bottom Line: Mediocre writing aside, these books might get you thinking, might make you mad, may make you want to do further investigation, may even have you question your relationship to your creator.... I think these things are some attributes of the best of all books -- written well or not.

Too short

This version Leaves out too much of the story line. Hopefully the longer version will be better.

Fantastic!

Loved it! And Frank Muller delivers flawlessly as always! I was very disappointed to see that the left behind books that he narrated were removed from the audible store.

Wow

I've been listening to the entire series and I'm finally up to the eighth. The further I get into the series the more engaging and exciting it becomes. I'm hooked.

First of Twelve

The Left Behind series is a good beginning to Bible Prophecy, the way it is, not the way a person would like to believe. To put it bluntly, if you die without Christ, you're going to hell. Thats what the Bible say. Pictures of Left Behind are all over the Bible: Noah, Stephan, Lot, etc... If you like to know what the Bible says about the Rapture, this is a good place to start.

This story is Great! The narrator? ... not so much

If you could sum up Left Behind in three words, what would they be?

Gripping, thought provoking, revelational

Did Frank Muller do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

No. His reading is far too dramatic and theatrical. It really is very distracting. The writing and the content gets an a plus. I was very please to find the next book in the series is narrated by someone else. I will be aiming to avoid further Frank Mullers narrations.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I very easily could have. It was not very long and it was rivetting. If the narrator was different I mean.

Left Behind Series

I really enjoyed all 11 in this series . The narrator does a great job on the material . This really makes you think about what it will be like for those who are not ready when the rapture comes . I deffinately don't want to live through the tribulation times .
