I should have left this book behind at the library! Out of all 12 books, this one was by far the most ridiculous. I can't believe I read them all - I'm still not sure how I managed that feat!

The authors stretched the arrival of Jesus to 400 pages. I could have done it in four sentences. (Jesus comes. Bad people die. Good people are reunited with their loved ones. The end.) At this point, the characters are almost cartoonish. Carpathia and Leon are so ridiculous, they could have been in the movie Dumb and Dumber. Even Jesus was disappointing - and he was Jesus!

I think I'm done with these books. No 'Left Behind: The Kids,' no prequels. I think the authors missed the money they were making so they continued the saga for as long as possible. They will have to continue it without me! ( )

The final book of the series, and after all this time reading through all 12 books, I'm feeling let down and very disappointed. This book was the hardest to get through, and I found it almost an insult to what Christians have to look forward to. I think the imagery should best be left to the book of Revelation in the Bible. I'm just so happy the series is over! ( )

The end has come. The description of Heaven in this book is fantastic. ( )

Awesome book to end the excellent series! True, some of the writing is lacking at times, but all in all, for a fictional series, it was worth the time invested to get through all the books. Recommended reading! ( )

last of series, enjoyed the first book but couldn't wait for the series to finally come to an end. As the series progressed a large part of the book was spent reviewing the past. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0842332359, Hardcover)

Thousands of years of human history stained by strife, death, and sin come to an end when the King of Glory returns to earth. The satisfying conclusion of the seven years of Tribulation covered by the Left Behind series portrays the return of Jesus Christ to earth in both glory and judgment.

At the height of the battle between the forces of evil gathered at Armageddon and the remaining Christian believers at Petra and Jerusalem, nothing seems to be able to stop the Antichrist, Nicolae Carpathia. But God has another plan.
