Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The Rising begins a new Left Behind series that will give you a glimpse into the lives of your favorite characters before the Rapture. Have you ever wondered what life was like before the Rapture for Rayford, Irene, and Chloe Steele, Bruce Barnes, Buck Williams, and Tsion Ben Judah? Plus, see why Viv Ivins plays such a pivotal role in Nicolae Carpathia's life. What were the events surrounding Nicolae's sudden rise to power? How did he become filled with evil? You will find all these answers and more in this exciting new series!

In The Rising,Marilena Carpathia has only one dream: to be a mother. So when a mysterious clairvoyant promises the fulfillment of this dream, Marilena does not hesitate. Through genetic engineering and the power of the prince of darkness himself, Marilena is about to become a chosen vessel, one who will unknowingly give birth to the greatest evil the world has ever known.

Halfway around the world, God's plans are subtly being carried out too. Young Ray Steele is determined to avoid one day taking over the family business. Instead, Ray sets his heart on becoming a pilot.

Soon Carpathia's and Steele's lives will intersect. And good and evil will clash in an explosion that will shake the world.

The eternal battle for souls has come to earth. The world hurtles toward the countdown to the Rapture.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An Amazing Thiller
This book had me on the edge of my seat many times and once I actually jumped when something happened. It is well written and is a prequel, along with two other books, to the Left Behind series of books. The Left Behind series is Biblically based thillers about the end of time. All of them are great reads - Biblical or not.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Was this also about a time warp?
Here is my only complaint:
They seemed to not know what year they were writing about in the beginning of The Rising.
If you read the original series you would see that Rayford is in his 40s and Carpathia in his 30s, in the first Left Behind book. For Rayford to be 9 and Carpathia not born yet, the setting had to be the 70's, yet they are talking about cell phones and high speed internet. I may be wrong, but I really didn't think these things came about until the middle to late 80's. I ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a redemption from the "Glorious Appearing"
I have read all the previous books in the series. The first one was good, the second was really good, and books 3-10 were AWESOME. And the last one as we all know was the biggest flop in history. However I found this book redeeming, not only in the way it kept the reader's attention, but also with the toning down of the endless and repetitive scriptures that were cited in some of the previous books.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Interesting
I have read all three prequills to the left behind series and I found them very interesting. They answer a lot of questions about the characters in the "Left Behind" series. I found them a good read and they were not too long but you will want to read all three. I recomend them to anyone who has read or wants to read the "Left Behind" books. I do want to reread the first book in the series just to refresh my memories.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very interesting
I found this book to be very interesting. I think they did a good job of creating a background for Nicolae and how he came to be. It was a creepy beginning that fits what a creepy person he became. I enjoyed this part of the prequils much more than the other two.
