Customer Reviews

Exciting Read!

I am reading the left behind series, which I believe are very well written, and I have read Mr. Cash's book and am very impressed with it. The beginning is a little slow, but once you get past the first 50 pages the book flies through your hands. The Left Behind series and this book have highlights in there own rights. In left behind you get to really know a set of people over a long period of time. Antichrist covers things very quickly and concisely. The action is non-stop and leaves you breathless at times. I missed a fair amout of sleep reading this book. The bottom line is that this book brings Revelation to life in a very entertaining and readable format. I recommend it to fellow christians for the theology found within, and to non-believers for the way it presents the end times in an easy to understand format.

A Fantabulously Great Book

I was already drawn to the book because of the author was a meteorologist and worked in a television station, but I was not prepared for the impact of the book. Most Christian books that I read begin by changing to different settings and characters that come into play during the course of the story, before the reader fully understands what is going on. However, Jon Cash's book remained in the original setting until the events taking place were defined. I was also drawn to the action in the plot of the story. It took me less than two days to read the entire novel. I would recommend this book to any person, Christian or not. Cash did a great job in correlating the events of the book to the prophecies in the book of Revelations. The orchestration of the characters and the prophecies worked hand in hand. Great job Jon.

Why aren't there six stars?

One phrase to simply describe the book: this thing was food for starvin marvin! From cover to cover, I could not put the book down until I finished it. I am one of those people that likes books on the end times; dealing with the rapture and the antichrist. Some people may call this book another one of those overzealous religious books. Let me tell you right now, it is not. This book is written so clearly, you feel like you are one of the characters, and when the action gets intense, you can feel yourself getting goosebumps. One thing that is different about this book and other books of the type is that it has three different viewpoints rather than just one. You have the view of the humans, the angels, and the demons. Altogether it is a great medley to see what happens at all views at all times. I just have one question, where is the sixth star rating? This book definitely deserves six stars. Being that I have worked with Jon on a project just as his book came out on the market, I was expecting to see a lot of his weather terms, but the first page was the only time I recognized his weather language. I would like to say that I give the book a Six(6(seis(sis)))! Good Job Jon "Oink" Cash!

SuperHuman "Thriller" with a Twist!

I'm in the process of reading Age of the Antichrist by Jonathan R. Cash. The subject, especially as we near the new millennium has probably been "over done", but not, to my knowledge, from this perspective. Jon covers the Bible's Book of Revelations from the human, angel, and demon characters viewpoints. Even with the subject matter, the book is oft-times humorous. A very enjoyable read. The book caught our attention because Jon is a full-time meteorologist and we work for AccuWeather, Inc. I honestly expected a lot of weather-related prophesies to find their way into the book, but thusfar only the first page had me chuckling about his weather descriptions.While Christians are the most likely to read the book, it's told in a fashion that anyone could enjoy -- sort of a thriller with superhuman characters.

It's better than the left behind series!

Just finished the Assassins novel..It was great..wanted something similar to quench my appetite...heard about "The Age of the Antichrist" in a chat room. This book was fantastic! It was a totally different read from the left behind series. The book concentrates on Immanuel Bernstate, the Antichrist, and his quest for power. Instead of focusing on the battle on the earth, this book focuses the battle between the angels and demons. It was quite original to say the least. I found myself going to my bible and looking up some of the events from the book of the revelation. Way Cool! It's a hit...You will be glued to your seat.
