Publisher Description

Armageddon-the thrilling eleventh book in the best-selling inspirational series of all time, with over 40 million copies in print-continues the sweeping, apocalyptic saga of the end times on planet earth and reaches new heights with a story listeners will never forget. Beginning with the sudden disappearance of millions of people-the fulfillment of the Rapture foretold in the Bible-authors Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins skillfully mix biblical prophecy and current events into a series that keeps fans everywhere eagerly awaiting the next installment. It is the final year of the Great Tribulation. The Tribulation Force is holding out in their San Diego safehouse, but in reality, there is no place left that can be called safe. All the world's remaining armies have gathered in the Middle East, poised for the battle of the ages and preparing for the mighty beasts of the apocalypse. The wasted shell of once-beautiful planet Earth has been reduced to a ticking time bomb, staggering under the weight of judgements from heaven. Mankind is hurtling toward the Battle of Armageddon and the ultimate showdown between the forces of good and evil. Who will survive at the end of the world? Find out in the earth-shaking climax to the Left Behind saga. Recorded Books is proud to offer the only complete and unabridged recording of Armageddon available on audiobook, featuring a suspenseful reading by narrator Richard Ferrone.

"At this point, the characters - that have made it this far - you can't help but have favorites and have attachments for one or some so this was a difficult one to read without tears, anger and grief. The end-of-the-world battle has begun and the One World Unity Army has surrounded God's people. "

    " It was, once again, a great story with lots of details on the people that have made this a great series...almost too many details, as this book covers a very short time period...but then again it is a content rich time period...one of the best so far as far as excitement during the good parts "
