Average Rating: Rating: - pretty darn boring...think they left the plot behind. This is going to earn me some unfavorable votes...but that's nothing new. I liked the first book (see review June 26th). But I am now done reading this series. This book bored me silly. In fact I will not finish it. I kept thinking that it might get better; but somewhere around the point where Buck and Rayford are both mulling job proposals from the antichrist, I terminally lost interest. If you've ever wondered just how slow or overwrought a plotline to a story can get...here is your answer. Not only is Tribulation Force horribly boring, but whatever happened to suspension of disbelief? Can anyone tell me why Hattie, Satan's new fly girl apparently, still wants to even speak to Rayford? I thought she didn't want to have anything to do with him at the end of the last book. Same thing with Buck...why in the world does Carpathia want to mess with him any further when he had already succeeded at destroying his career for all intents and purposes? Let me offer a piece of advice: Do not waste your time reading this series which will probably be only halfway finished when the tenth book rolls around. There are plenty of edifying and entertaining books such as "Till We Have Faces" by C.S. Lewis (anything by Lewis is better than this), "The Thanatos Syndrome" by Walker Percy or even "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" by Stephen King. Read one of these books-you will get a lot more out of them than the Left Behind books. Books are like fish. Some are so good that you want to mount it on your wall for every one to see. Some you throw back. This one is definitely not a keeper. Rating: - This book keeps you on the edge of your seat. As in the first book in this series "Left Behind", "Tribulation Force" goes right to the deepest of your emotions. It is a cliffhanger from start to finish! At the end of reading it you can't wait to get to the next book. This is a book that I would highly recomend to my most skeptical of friends. Although, it is fiction, it is based on facts and a very realistic view of the life of those who may be left on this earth after Christ's return. I am sure reading this entire series will have an impact on people's lives. I beleive that the chilling reality of the stories will bring people to salvation. And for those who have already received it, it will make you glad that you have. Tim Lahaye and Jerry B. Jenkins are EXCELLENT !!!! Rating: - Good series, but a little flawed theological premise This duo continues to write excellent fiction on the timeless subject of prophecy. While the Premillennial/Pretribulational model is well supported by Scripture, there are a few flaws in the underlying premise that could technically dismiss the plot. For example, early on in the series, there is chaos during the Rapture; there is no indication of this in the Bible. Further, the view promoted is that anyone can be saved during the Tribulation. However, there is considerable Scriptural evidence that only Jewish individuals will be permitted to come to Christ after the rapture of the church. If you want to understand prophecy (specifically the Premillennial/Pretribulational model) within the context and flow of the Bible, I suggest you check out "The History of the Future: A Commentary on Revelation and Matthew 24" by Marvin Blackburn, Timothy D. Blackburn, ISBN: 1592440681 available on Amazon. This is an excellent book for the beginner and more advanced student. (See footnote on page 63 of Blackburns' book for a treatment of the question, "Who can be saved during the Tribulation?") I still highly recommend these Left Behind books - they have done much to promote a better and more correct understanding of eschatology while giving a good read.
