The Mark: Left Behind, Volume 8

Good read while falling to sleep at night.

As I said before great read. You will want to order them all. Highly recommend.

Things are heating up. It is time to make a decision. Things are scary. Evil at its best. God is Good.

If you like suspense thrillers that keep you on the edge of your seat and you just can't put down; you MUST read the "Left Behind Series" by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins!When I began reading this series my life was changed...I never could read a book and finish it before. However, Book 1, "Left Behind," started me on a road to reading. Unbelievable! I could not put the books down; and then I couldn't wait to get to the next book (you do need to read them in order so you don't get confused or lost.The first book in the series moved a little slow for me; but after that BAM! The following books moved quickly. In fact, I was reading a book a week and that was a miracle for me because prior to starting this series I had only read one other book straight through in my lifetime.I think what made these books even more thrilling than most is that this series is based on the truths of the Scriptures and the prophecy of the Bible. The writers, Tim LaHaye & Jerry B. Jenkins, took the prophecies that point to the time we are living in now and what is to come. They layed them out in a way so that you can envision the days ahead for the planet Earth and it's people. So exciting!I FIRST READ THESE IN THE 90'S and WOW! It's amazing to watch these prophecies unfolding in the daily events in the World around us. The reality of the media news fills our days with tradgedies and violence beyond our imaginations. The good news is that in the midst of it all, after reading these books, we can see the way to hope for a better day. I know you will not be disapointed in these books.The MOVIE versions did not do the books justice and were a big disapointment. Too much was changed and left out.* Complete Series 16 Volume Left Behind Set: The Rising, Regime, Rapture, Left Behind, Tribulation Force, Nicolae, Soul Harvest, Apollyon, Assassins, The Indwelling, The Mark, Desecration, The Remnant, Armageddon, Glorious Appearing, Kingdom Come (Left Be...

The books in this series just get better and better. I found myself actually frightened at moments and so disturbed by what I read that I had to step back for a bit. That's a sign of excellent writing! The bad guys are so terribly bad and the evil is not candy coated. That's why it was hard for me because things said and done by the characters were very offensive. Now that is not a bad thing considering who the characters are and if this is to be true to life, then yes that evil would prevail to the point that very offensive behavior and talk would take place. One thing is clear in these books, the battle between good and evil won't be watered down in real life and it isn't here. But it is still respectful and sympathetic to the reader so no worries. All these qualities make a very exciting story. I find myself reading the books so fast I have to make myself slow down and pace myself. No point rushing a good thing. If you are thinking about reading the Left Behind Series, start at the beginning and get ready for the ride of your life.

This book conjured up just about every emotion I had. Anxiety, sadness, relief, joy, anger, to name a few. The characters whom I adore, I really adore. The others, not so much. Reads as if it's all real and keeps you turning pages.

This book is about number 8 in a series of about 13 books. You need to read all of them. They are awesome. Christian based on the bible's book of revelations, they tell the story of several main characters, later added groups of people and the experiences they have during all the biblical prophecies.The fears many of us have of a one world order and how that might unfold. My husband and I are not bible readers or church goers, we are of native heritage and follow our old traditional teachings but these books, all of them are hard to put down.These are all written in realistic possible scenarios and will keep you interested throughout the whole series which ends with the coming of Christ and the thousand year peace. The Mark concerns the Mark of the beast and how it might be forced on people or people tricked to take it and those who don't want it fight to hide and prepare to survive without it.

As a non-religious person I knew very little about the Christian beliefs concerning the 'Rapture' and 'Christ's Second Coming'. I also felt a series based in religion would hold very little interest for me. How wrong I was!!! The books are fast paced, exciting and real page turners. The characters are believable and you find yourself immersed in their stories, wanting them to survive. I also learnt a huge amount and found myself considering what the Bible foretells, wondering if there actually is some truth to it. The 'Left Behind' series commanded my interest, fascinated me and changed my perspective on religion. I would recommend this series to believers and to those who may be sceptical (like I was) but who are willing to approach this with an open mind and a preparedness to be taught something as well as enjoying a fascinating read. Excellent series and extremely talented authors who know what they're talking about.

Good series! Got the book digital.

This is one of the better books in the Left Behind series, very readable. I've read the whole series once before and wanted to read it again, then when I did (just finished the whole lot) I remembered why I didn't keep the original books. This series is what it is, based absolutely on the words used in the Bible, which maybe explains a slight lack of imagination in some of the books as the writers struggle not to stray away from their absolutely literal interpretation of Revelation. I've given this four stars because it is one of the better books, more interest, more happening, some decent dialogue.

This is a very good series of books and I enjoyed this book.If someone is looking for books which are totally scripturally correct these are not the books but they are excellent fiction thrillers. As with the previous seven in the series this one had me on the edge of my seat.

This Is a must read. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness in heavenly places. The enemy is come to steal , kill and destroy. We must be vigilant .
