Publisher Description

Left Behind thrilled millions of readers with its apocalyptic visions and fast-paced suspense. Now Tribulation Force joins it in the stunning continuation of a prophetic battle against the enemies of God. In an instant, millions of people have vanished from Earth. Those left behind scramble to find the cause of this massive disappearance. In their desperation, they fall under the spell of Nicolae Carpathia, a charismatic leader, who vows to bring all religions, governments, and economic systems together. But underneath his promise to unite the world lurks a force of great evil. Can a group of four men and women, who call themselves Tribulation Force, find the strength to topple this wicked foe? As they draw on their shared faith in Christ, the challenge becomes one that could alter the fate of all humankind. Narrator Richard Ferrone conveys the spiritual and physical conflicts, sweeping you into a world teetering on the brink of destruction.

"I thought this book was spectacular just like the first one of this series! I loved how this book combines love, action, and characters who are really feel real in my heart! I realized that this book compared to the first book was very more emotional and more intense. I think once I keep reading this series, each book will get more and more intense which I love! I was really attached to this book and at one point almost cried! Everytime I read this book, I never wanted to stop! Ever! I really think this book helped build my faith in Jesus Christ and made me realize more on how important faith really is! I hope you get a chance to read this book too!"
