This novel deals with the Rapture and the next few days after it. Quite a few other authors have been writing about that lately. The difference is that this book is one of the better ones! It is very very gripping and as real as todays headlines. One friend that I loaned it too, wasn't a Christian, but he enjoyed it. He told me it started out like any regualr novel, but as he got further along he said he felt like an earthquake was starting. He told me he felt like the Rapture and the resulting chaos was actually happening. This novel first came out in 85' long before the Left Behind series and I happen to like it a lot more. I loved it back then and I still love it now. My only regret is that the author never wrote a sequel!
Good reading about a subject we'll all have to face someday!

Believable. Especially if you're one of the ones looking for His return. This book is better than the "Left Behind" series. I just wish Mr. Betzer, if he's still alive, would come up with a sequel. I truly enjoyed reading it and did not put the book down until I finished it. It's mind boggling to imagine the President of the United States as the false prophet of the Antichrist. The Rapture is a subject of much controversy even among religious circles and one that is either shrugged off as fairy tales, as Mr. Betzer describes it in his book, or one that is just so impossible to believe in that it's better to just ignore it altogether. For us Christians who believe Christ will return, it's a reality.
So suspensful it will leave you on the edge of your seat!!!

The "Beast" is a fictional book about what could really happen in the future. It goes through details that cover when the rapture takes place, and who the Anti-Christ is. This book will scare even the strongest person into religion!
