I am a long-time fan of N. T. Wright's work, and this book doesn't disappoint. This is text for people whose lives are immersed in the daily push-pull of the non-academic world, yet value the Bible and want to dive as deeply as possible. But be forewarned: Those who have embraced the Left Behind/Late Great Planet Earth way of looking at Revelation will either be angered at a new way of thinking or relieved to be freed from the crippling literalism that has made the book relevant only to the generation that thinks it's all about them.

This is an easy read and there is a helpful glossary of terms as well as a study guide for the more serious of biblical students. I highly recommend it!
