Why did I read two of these? Why are there so many good reviews? Surely the Antichrist is to blame on both counts. I hate to leave reviews this brief and snarky, so I had to come back and elaborate. 20 years ago, when these books first came out, I was working in an office in Lexington, Ky, with a large number of evangelical type folks. They were nice guys, but given to starting arguments about evolution (it's all made up, have you heard?), singing Gospel songs at top volume in the office, andFirst, I must dispute some of the claims made by other reviewers. They claim that this series is sexist, mainly because of the character of Hattie Durham. That is ridiculous, not only because such women exist in the world, but especially because there are other female characters (Chloe, for example) who do not behave in this manner. Additionally, there are male characters who have impure sexual motives as well. So, calling this book sexist is utterly unfounded. Secondly, they have called this
I read this 20 years ago, so it's hard to rate. I've decided not to rate it based on what I currently think of the theology in the book (hint: it's bad), and I'm not rating it based on what I currently think of the writing (also bad). I'm rating it based on how much, as well as I can remember, my 16 year old self liked it.
After completing the first book in a reading frenzy, I couldnt wait to start the next one. And I didnt. I picked up Tribulation Force without a moments hesitation. We pick up with Rayford, Buck, Chloe and Bruce Barnes who are all feeling the weight of their roles. They know what is coming. They know who the Antichrist is. They know they must set themselves against him. But how can they do that when said Antichrist has more wealth than all those left behind combined? He now owns all the media.
This one actually got a little more interesting to me.
Left Behind: Tribulation Force is a baffling book that will make you laugh and cringe, all while putting you to sleep.So, youre a writer, and you have an idea for a series of books set in a dystopian future where Christians are hunted by a one-world government. You see the potential for drama, action, political intrigue, and some of the craziest imagery the Bible has to offer. But theres a problem: youre already one book in, and the pieces are nowhere near where you need them to be. Sure, you
Nearly as engaging as the first book, and certainly goes out with a bang, leaving readers (including me) ready for the next book. Where the dip in fun for me was section of romance between two of main leads. There was a lot of crossed wires and misunderstandings that kinda fell flat or forced to me, and went on a little too long. Thankfully, though, it does not go on for too too long; I like those two in general, and most of their other interactions are enjoyable to read.
