I LOVED this book. It all starts off with a normal, everyday person at work. He is a pilot and he has to deal with the emotion, and stress when people just disappear from his airplane (and from around the world.) It has several real life charaters that has to deal with this end-of-the-earth days. Many of which don't seem to understand what has happened. It is a gripper with a slightly slow period in the first 1/4 of the book. However it makes up for it in the twist and turns that you don't see coming. It includes the basics of the last chapter in the Bible. It is wonderful to have some fiction that is based on the bible. It is not a replacement for the Bible. And it should not give anyone the ideal that this is what the bible says exactly. But it is great for a fun loving drama fiction that keeps you on your seat. I think even a non-believer would love this book.
