Left Behind

A Novel of the Earth's Last Days

De: Tim LaHaye, Jerry B. Jenkins

Narrado por: Richard Ferrone

What would happen if millions of people around the world suddenly disappeared one day? In this fascinating apocalyptic thriller, best-selling Christian inspirational authors LaHaye and Jenkins pool their considerable talents to answer that question. Narrator Richard Ferrone's unusually deep and hypnotic voice will keep you right in the middle of this not-unimaginable end of the world nightmare.

Pilot Rayford Steele is contemplating adultery with a young flight attendant when over 100 of his passengers simply vanish, leaving vacated clothes and bewildered companions. Rayford and the others left behind must deal with mass chaos on top of personal loss. Among the passengers still left is star reporter Cameron "Buck" Williams, who just got the assignment of a lifetime: find out what happened and why. Theories abound, from Christian Rapture to alien abduction. Buck suspects secret meetings between international power brokers are somehow connected. And rising political icon Nicolae Carpathia seems to be at the center of it all.

Makes you think

In general christians unconciously (or not) tend to imagine some of the less than pleasant scenes (future or past) in the bible not actually taking place being. This book makes an effort to present one possible interpretation of the end times as a real life situation and has you think how would you deal with it. This is obviously a challenge for the authors but they do a pretty good job.

Whether the actual interpretation is correct (pre-trib / post-trib etc) is probably less important than :

1. It makes you think about the whole issue
2. It is a good clean adventure story
3. It will likely leave you wondering what will happend next (and ready to buy the next one in the series).

It is the first christian tradition based fiction I have read and I certainly enjoyed it.

Probably the best part of the book is its attempt to describe in some way what it might be like to find parts of your family disappeared in the rapture and you were "left behind".

No particular complaints about the narration.

Interesting truth

I hate to admit it, but the truth about the future is terifying. There were situations that I would have never thought of. Very real to life. This is a very good witnessing tool. Thank you and God bless.

An Intriguing Look

This is an intriguing look at bible prophecy from one prospective. While it does start off a little slow it is necessary to learn and get to know all of the wonderful characters. THe charecter invovelment, as they tell the story from each point of view, is amazing and I really feel I can put myself in their shoes. It is a fabulous story that really gets you thinking!

Captivating

I remember loving this series when it came out almost 3 decades ago I’m enjoying it just as much now as I did then.

Had the series in my library but never read it

Wow, just wow! I love Tom Abrahams and Mark Goodwin and saw this movie on Amazon Prime so was excited it was a freebie. So very very glad I read this book! It was amazing and I can't wait to read the next book in this series. Whether you believe or not, don't miss it!

Wake up call

A good job of presenting a great story. I like listening to Bible stories. I learn more because I understand better.

Good seiers, dated

I really enjoyed the books & glad available by Audible, but would recommend something newer date size for someone looking for more modern end of days book.

We must get ready

I walked around for days after finishing this book feeling like the world is about to end. Obviously a pre-trib man is Tim Lahaye. Myself I am a pan trib person. Whatever pans out in the end....

Wow!! Must read!

Yes this is fiction AND If you question if you believe in God, this is a must read! If you believe in Christ you will want to read it too!

We are living in turbulent times. May a God be with you all!
