Rayford Steele, a middle-aged husband, father, and commercial pilot, is flying a full plane across the ocean while contemplating an affair with his flight attendant when the Rapture happens and millions all over the world are taken to Heaven in a flash leaving all of the people who rejected Jesus behind. Chaos ensues, but Rayford is determined to find answers for himself and his daughter, also left behind. Simultaneously, the antichrist is beginning his rise to power. I found the story incredibly interesting and the ending to be downright jaw-dropping.

Prophecy can be so confusing that I love seeing how the Rapture could happen today. The only thing is that it's such interesting read that I find that I have to remind myself that this is just the author's interpretation of things and not necessarily how everything will actually happen.
Love this entire series!
For a first bookin a series... alittle dull, hopefully it will improve. But worth the read. The plot does move fast. The dialogue is a little hard to follow at points in the novel. And can't help but say there is a religious sub-plot. but like I said worth the read for end of the world thinking and reading. I will be reading the next book.
One of the best series ever, I am now extremely informed on the end-times events to come.
This series definitely made me more ready for when Jesus comes!
Definitely reccomended.
