Summary: Beyond tomorrow
Comment: Recent events have made the end of the age a plausible thing to consider as soon to be. Ergo, the literature movement has been quick to capitalize on the growing interest. However, few of the novels go beyond the final Battle at Armegeddon; most are speculative and lack a faith backbone. There are exceptions- this is one. Going beyond the Rapture that occurred in the prior book, Mr's Meier and Wise look into the Millenial Reign and the little season of Satan. Those who have been saved are finding life to be less than Paradise. There is violence and diseases that the Tree of Life can not cure. The need for faith in the true God is at an all time high. The devil is on the move and trying to turn hearts back to the false gods and idols of the ancient world. Only those who are grounded deeply in the word of God have any hope of salvation.
It is to be expected that such find Biblical scholars such as Wise and Meier would do this subject justice. Anything Paul Meier is associated with is worth reading.

Summary: Poor treatment of a potentially wonderful subject
Comment: This book tries, and for that alone, I'll give it an extra star. The author obviously has the best of intentions, but unfortunately, the effort doesn't translate into a novel that's readable. The characters are not recognizable human beings- they make June Cleaver seem like a complex, multi-faceted character. What's worse, there's no real theology that goes any deeper than, "God is good, you should worship Him." That's great, but when I read a book like this, I'm hoping to gain some new insight about both myself and my relationship to God. At the very least, I'm looking for a good story. There's none of that to be found here. Anyone looking for a novel about the Endtimes that succeeds where Meier's novel fails should check out We All Fall Down, by Brian Caldwell. It's insightful, enthraling, and will stick with you for months. Meier tries hard in this series, and doubtlessly has the best of intentions, but in all four of these books, his good intentions simply pave the way to a literary hell.

Summary: "A" for effort
Comment: This is not a great book but I've got to give Paul Meier A LOT of credit for the attempt. I read just about every novel on biblical prophecy that comes out, and this is the only one I know of that takes that little bit of prophecy that exists about the time of the Millennial Kingdom of Christ and expands it into a full novel. So even though, like I said, it's not a great book, I recommend it. As for the period leading up to the Millennial Kingdom, I recommend THE CHRIST CLONE TRILOGY by James BeauSeigneur.
