Two in One fiction from Salem Kirban

Kirban's only attempts at fiction, "666" and "1000" are not as finely polished as the "Left Behind" novels, but still very readable. "666" covers the same basic period as the entire "Left Behind" book series - and features George and his wife Helen (who is one of the ones taken in the Rapture). The parallels between this book and the "Left Behind" novels are very striking. The story starts on a airplane. The husband is "left behind" and the wife and children raptured. George is quickly catapulted into direct confrontation with the Anti-Christ and his minions. But that's not all - if you can find one of the combination books ("666" and "1000"), you'll even be able to read about the millennium period and what might happen during that time. Kirban's position as a born-again Arab really shine through in places. Kirban is not a novelist, though ... There are many places where an editor might have caught the fact that Kirban switches between first person and third person perspective without warning. There are other editorial mistakes, but not enough to make me want to put this book down until I had read it through.But I won't ruin the whole novel here - just recommend that if you like the "Left Behind" books that this is a "must read"!
