Customer Reviews

A little disappointed.

This series of novels was like reading a Christian Indiana Jones novel, complete with daring archeologist, bad guy, brave love interest, etc. Okay for reading one time. Left Behind series much better.

Tim LaHaye does it again

Tim LaHaye has a way with blending fiction into biblical prophecy. His stories are fast-paced, and hard to put down. "The Edge of Darkness" tells of the fast approaching time of the anti-christ. This series is a must read for everybody.

Babylon Rising;The Edge of Darkness

This book is excellent just as all of the others in the series are.

Great way to learn and have fun

Great story with a interesting lession in bible study the same time.

riveting thriller

At Preston College, biblical archeologist Michael Murphy receives another letter from Methuselah that contains a riddle. After figuring out what it means, Michael travels to the underground funhouse in Charlotte where he battles and defeats Ninja killers. He finds another riddle that he deciphers that focuses on Aaron's Rod and the Golden Jar of Manna that was in the Ark of the Covenant before it was lost to the Philistines. Michael's friend Isis, also an archeologist, researches where those items might be found and determines the most likely spot is the Temple of Dagon in Israel Murphy, who loves finding artifacts that prove the genuineness of the bible sets off to make his latest discovery, but is unaware that an old adversary is following him with the intent of killing him before he interferes with the powerful plans of the Seven, a group who manipulates, from behind the scenes, world events; they want the False prophet brought to the attention of the globe in preparation for the Antichrist to rise tom power. Michael knows of the Seven from Methuselah, but refuses to let them scare him off his quest to prove that everything written in the bible is fact. Book four of the Babylon Rising series provides deep explanations about the enigmatic Seven and their goals, who Methuselah is, and why he assists Murphy, and how the false prophets are fooling people. Murphy is an Indiana Jones type adventurer with strong beliefs in God that sustain him; he is flawed and prone to doubts when he makes difficult decisions as a modern day Diogenes hunting for the truth. Readers will enjoy his exploits as THE EDGE OF DARKNESS is a riveting thriller. Harriet Klausner
