Babylon Rising by Gregory S. Dinallo, Tim Lahaye (2003, Hardcover)

This book is the 4th in a series of books by Tim LaHaye.
The series as a whole is wonderful, the books are powerful and keep you guessing about what is going to happen next. Lots of action and suspense!!

This is a well written, fast paced book that keeps the reader in suspense. It is Christian oriented but it isn't over the top with proselytizing. It is action packed while providing quite a bit of education regarding the subject matter and it's history. I would highly recommend this first book in the series. I do feel that it is in line writing-style wise with the Left Behind series. However, the second book in the Babylon Rising series, The Secret of Mt. Ararat, doesn't seem to be nearly as well written.

Fast delivery. I purchased this book because I enjoy this quality of books and I have read several books from Tim Lahaye...

I started with the first book in the series (Babylon Rising) and was hooked by the action mixed with Bible prophecy and intrigue. Similar to Clive Cussler books without the annoying view of women as sex objects. Like Dirk Pitt, Michael Murphy gets in and out of impossible situations.

Tim LaHaye is no-holds-barred on Christianity, so someone who does not believe and is not even open to the possibility will not like this book. Otherwise it is an fun way to pick up info about the Bible, world religions and archeology while enjoying a fast paced story.

The book is fast paced and interlaced with Biblical history that adds to the overall story. It is what they refer to as a 'page turner'. It has the age old good vs evil format that gives a good feeling when good finally wins out. It is an enjoyable read and you pick up some interesting facts about the Bible of which you might not have been completely aware or didn't know the complete story. A pleasant respite from the 'Left Behind' series.

I purchased Babylon Rising without realizing there was a group of four. Of course read out of order. Was so pleased with this book could not put it down...read it all in less than two days. I like how it actually goes along with Bible history. If you like this type of reading, will love the book. No complaint, have already ordered the other three to complete my reading.

I bought this book because it is by the same author as the "Left Behind" series and they weren't being published fast enough for my appetite. This series is very action-packed with twists in plots and globetrotting characters. I also like the gospel that is woven into the story as well. I will probably reread this one!
