"This is the second official book of this series. This book talks about the events that happened before the first original book one. In this book, Nicolae starts to develop his evil side. The people that oppose him "disappear" and he is cheating his way up to the top and to achieve his goals. Rayford's life is getting worse as well as him and his wife are having an argument about her growing interest in Christianity. He is also trying to develop a new relationship with a flight attendant he works with. Many faithless in Christianity are talked about in this book and their problems/ reasons for being faithless in Christianity. A massive war on Israel is talked about before the book ended." — Eric (5 out of 5 stars)

" I like the idea of the book and the characters, but I do not like the style of writing; It felt like watching a movie rather than reading a book. "
" This is another series with the Left Behind series although it is only 3 books in this series. It focuses on the beginnings of Nicholae and his early years before he comes into the Left Behind (12 book series) I guess a pre-quel to the Left Behind although it was written afterwards. "
" Found the complete series to be very interesting. I anxiously awaited the next book to be published. "
" Did not have much of a plot. It is mainly about the development of the characters, that while interesting at times, did not seem to be necessary for the series as a whole "
" about the people before they were left behind. "
" Continues the story in the prequel to the Left Behind series giving even more background to characters. A fast pasted quick read, as long as you don't read just a few pages at a time during a break like I did. "
" See the first book in the series for a full review. "
" This is the second prequel of the "Left Behind" series. It was better than the first prequel. There was a lot more action. "
" I read all of the Left Behind books and had many questions about how the characters got there. I stumbled onto this series and have to say I am loving it. There is one more ... can't wait to read it. This fills in all the blanks. "
" I really liked the left behind series, but I did not really like this book. It is a prequel of happenings before they were left behind in the rapture. I read it years after reading the series and I don't think it contributed anything new. I didn't relate to the characters. "
" I loved the Left Behind series. This was a good prequel to tie up loose ends in the series. "
" I really liked this book. Carpathia is a character that is easy to hate. The authors of these books really understand the concept of characterization. It is really hard to stop reading this series. "
" Have read the 'regular' series and am enjoying the expanded view of the characters in these 'prequil' books. I kept wanting to say "wake up stupid, you're going to be left behind". Hindsight is so sharp whether it's in a book or life. "
" This one keeps giving you more information to give you a sense of who the main characters are. Very good. "
" Book 2 of 3 in the Left Behind countdown to the Rapture series. Nicolae gains power, Buck becomes a journalist, Irene and Raymie are born again, and Chloe grows up, rejects religion, and goes to college. "
" If I had read any of the "Left Behind" books before this one, I might have enjoyed it. As it was, this book was a miserable failure in my opinion. "
" I'm not gonna lie I'm a bit tired of this series already...haha "
" Liked this better than the first books in the series - this book especially about difference between being saved vs. being a churchgoer - a must read for anyone who has doubts about their relationship with Jesus "
" This one was way better then the first one. It is interesting to watch Rayford, Cameron and Nicolae grow up, though these books can never compare to the original series. "
" Just as good as the original Left Behind Series! "
