Having glanced at a couple in a bookstore they actually manage to be more poorly-written than the DaVinci Code, and that's an accomplishment.

Anyway, the Left Behind books are basically Religious Porn.

I can't understand how the Da Vinci Code became such a success... Boring!

Agreed. I actually read the first one. Boy, what a stretch of fiction that was! To summarize, the anti-Christ Nicolae Carpathia comes to power in the UN and convinces all the world's military powers to give all their weaponry to him, via the UN.

Yeah, right. I can just see the Israelis blindly agreeing to given their billion-dollar military to the UN. And China, North Korea, the USA, etc.

Just far too unbelievable and poorly-written to boot.

Much more poorly-written. I read the first three books of the series, just to see if they'd be interesting. The characters were completely wooden, the dialog was unbelievable. The plot was absolutely transparent.

No, thanks.
