It's a formidable challenge to keep the attention of an audience midway through a projected 12-volume series, but with their trademark blend of humor and gripping suspense, authors Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye continue to captivate readers with The Indwelling, the seventh installment of the Left Behind series.

Carpathia's funeral takes a hair-raising turn for the 4 million people who attend. Over the crowd looms the centerpiece of a new world religion, a 24-foot bronze statue of Carpathia, belching black smoke and demanding obedience. 

Woven through the fast-paced drama are the ongoing stories of people struggling amid the end-times mayhem: Chloe Williams wrestles with the moral implications of killing her toddler Kenny to avoid having him fall into enemy hands; her father Rayford Steele is brought face-to-face with the consequences of his pride. Dr. Chaim Rosenzweig, a prominent Jewish Israeli statesman, ponders a conversion to Christianity.

The strength of the series comes from Jenkins's ability to keep the action moving and readers caring about the characters. And there's a hook: The end of The Indwelling promises, "If the last three and a half years are your idea of tribulation, wait until you endure the Great Tribulation." The bad news is just beginning. But, the Tribulation Force believes, good news is also on the way. --Cindy Crosby

I believe the 'Left Behind' books are the greatest series of the End Times. All the books keep you on the edge of your seats and just when you think you know what's going to happen next, Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins take you on a whole new series of twists and turns. 

If a non-believer were to read the Left Behind books and then read Revelation and believe it that they could become saved. I think it's wonderful that Christian writers are making best-selling Christian series when practically all today's literature is evil and corrupting. 

To take a stand against these writers who write all about adultery and sin. I believe this is such a good series. The Tribulation Force (2nd) is exciting and thrilling. Nicolae, is a great book of showing how deceptive the anti-christ is going to be. 

Soul Harvest, is great and heart-rending as you travel to two sides of the world with the characters. Apollyon is equally great. And finally the Indwelling. It's wonderful! I'm sure all the Left Behind Readers are clearly waiting anxiously for the next book, The Mark. 

I read the first chapter and if the rest of the book and the ones to follow are anything like the first chapter, Then Rayford, Buck, Tsion, & Chloe are in for greatest 'Survivor' game of their life to stay alive until the Glorious Appearing. 

I encourage and recommend this book to everyone. Whether your 20's or in your 50's
