I really liked these books. They are abridged so it was all action. Very satisfying ending, because at the end Jesus returns. Amen!

The Left Behind: The Kids Audiobooks are fantastic! I have listened to all six volumes several times and I still listen to them. The audio features talented voice actors, awesome music and sound effects, and great original songs (I wish there was a soundtrack of just the songs that are featured in several episodes throughout the series).

The audio does differ some from the book series. The one thing that really disappointed me with the audio is that one of the main characters Shelly in the book series was written almost entirely out of the audio. She is in the early episodes but is written out of the later volumes. Not having the character in the audio altered the story a bit, mainly in the later volumes.

I would highly recommend the audio series to anyone who loved reading the Left Behind: The Kids series. If you haven't read the books I would suggest reading them first as the story is a little bit different in the audio series. I also think that it's better to get to know the characters through the books first. Although I enjoyed listening to the audio, I loved the books so much more.

Excellent coverage of tribulation prophecy. I enjoyed this read even more as it paralleled the adult Left Behind series. A great series to read and discuss with a young one interested in learning more about End Times prophecy.

In the last book I came to tears several times.
I felt like I was there. It makes me even more impatient for the rapture to happen!

It had a really good ending. I loved how Judd and Vicki got married close to the end. The series has been very gripping, I read the whole series in a couple of weeks.
