Tim Lahaye and Jerry B. Jenkins - The Indwelling: An Experience in Sound and Drama

Pros: The greatness just keeps on coming.
Cons: I can think of absolutely none!

The Indwelling is the seventh book in the Left Behind series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. I began reading the series a little over a month ago and have yet to be able to put any of the books down. The Indwelling is no different...

Pros: mystery, not predictable, great characters
Cons: none

Introduction

When I first began reading the ‘Left Behind’ series, little did I know how addicted I would become.

These books have given me, as a Christian, a picture of what the Rapture and Tribulation could be...

Pros: Engaging Story
Cons: Everything else

I must say that while often appalled at the puerile literary style used by the authors of the Left Behind series, I do enjoy these novels. Why? Well, it took awhile, but the story finally has become engaging and for the most part the characters...

Pros: Keeps your attention
Cons: NONE

I have read all of the Left Behind Series. The books seem to keep getting better and better.

Rayford, Buck, Chloe, and the rest of the tribulation force find themselves caught up in the death and resurrection of Nicolae Carpathia, the...

Pros: New characters getting more interesting; Keeps up with the previous book
Cons: Sometimes suspense can seem like slowness.

Glossary Reading this series requires some commitment; therefore, readers of this review can be assumed to have a working knowledge of the earlier works, and will know most of the characters, names of organizations,and theological terms ...

Pros: Still a great story-line and message
Cons: Writing is forced and not very concise

Let me start off by saying I read the first 6 books in a 2 week period and couldn't get enough of them. When I finished in February I didn't know how I was going to make it to May 23rd to wait for the release of The Indwelling. I pre-ordered my copy...

Pros: We find out the mystery of the murderer.
Cons: A little slow in reading.

The Indwelling is the seventh book in the Left Behind series about the Rapture. As with the previous books we find our favorite characters, Buck Williams, his wife Cloe, Rayford Steele and Tsion Ben-Judah. They are familiar characters that we are anxious...

Pros: Keeps you in touch with the characters
Cons: short, expensive, less interesting than the other books of the series.

Since the beginning of Left Behind, I have found myself intrigued and eager to stay up with the entire series written by Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye.

I don't consider myself much of a reader. In fact, I hate to read. I find it difficult to...

Pros: Will definitely provoke your thoughts!
Cons: Too long to wait between books.

I was pleased to see that this latest book in the Left Behind Series has evoked so many emotions. I don't agree with the majority of the bad opinions and here is why.

Every time I read the latest book in the series, I find that the plot...

Pros: Easy reading, interesting topic
Cons: Expensive (hardcover only), didn't keep my attention like the others

I was pumped up and ready for this book's release as this is book 8 in the Left Behind Series and Book 7 just left you totally hanging and about ready to burst just wanting to know just what happens next. So I ran to the Christian Book Store (yep, these...

Pros: Continues the series
Cons: Covers ground covered in previous book

I have just finished Assassins, ready for
the return to life of Nicolae in The
Indwelling. At the end of Assassins,
Tsion is left wondering if he had been wrong
all along when Nicolae is not indwelt by
...

Pros: Well written, good value
Cons: A sequel with a sequel

I just finished this book this afternoon. I was so glad when it finally hit the shelves - the last book left us all hanging as to who killed Nicolae. I have to admit, I had it figured out, which makes me just a little bit superior, but we won't go...

Pros: believable characters, awesome story
Cons: first couple of books move a little slow

I could not wait to get my hands on Jerry Jenkins/Tim LaHaye's new book "The Indwelling" when it came out in May. I have read all of the previous novels in this series and six months between release dates is just too long to wait.

...

Pros: Continuing story
Cons: Too much of a filler

I know no one is going to know when the end of times will occur but I think the authors of this book are trying to make their continuing storyline stretch until Christ reappears so they will know how to end it all.

I have read all of the Left...

Pros: Makes you look at life, entertaining, great message
Cons: Could be a little too preachy for some people

I had heard so much about this series that I just had to start reading them. At the time I had no idea they were "religious" books and I would like to think I would have read them anyway. I have not had the opportunity to read the entire series...
