This book, the sixth collection of the series, excelled because it did what I always hoped the series would do... find its own identity apart from the adult series. Previous books had relied heavily on connecting to the goings on of the adult Tribulation Force instead of focusing on the teenagers. This one didn't do that. Also, it didn't fight to keep pace timeline-wise with Assassins, the corresponding book in the adult series. Instead, it really fleshed out the story possibilities of the locust judgment.
Ultimately, it was a very good book with some strong moments. One of the best of the series so far, I think, with a fantastic final scene that, though it ties with the adult series, it is also wholly unique. I look forward to starting the next book in the series.
A traitor could be in the Young Trib Force. As Judd, Lionel, and Sam hatch a plan to reach Sam’s father one more time, they narrowly escape Global Community capture. And what comes next for Judd is even more startling.
Ouch. 5th trumpet judgment, the demonic locusts. Very realistic and scary-for unbelievers. I'm enjoying this series as much as the Left Behind books. Revelations comes alive as the world races toward full judgement.

This book really begins to pick up the pace. Although it is Christian fiction, it is Bible based. The events are authentic and bring the great tribulation to life. I am holding out hope that Melinda gets saved, but I find Janie quite irritating. I really hope Judd goes back home and ends up with Vicki. Nada is nice and all but my vote is for Vick. Also I would love for Shelly and Mark to get together. When they first got to know each other they fought. But I think now things are different.
I can’t get enough of this series, it may be better than the actual left behind adult series: Although, I read them over 10 years ago, So I can’t confirm that. Once again, I can’t put this book/iPad down, as I’ve been reading a book in two days and not getting much sleep. As a believer I know what’s going to happen, and hope the non Christians believers who reads the series take it seriously and read the Bible. I pray the Holy Spirit touch would open their eyes and touch their souls. I Praise our savior and redeemer Jesus Christ. Amen
I am so enjoying these books. The characters become like friends and loved ones. It's so sad when one dies yet I know they are in heaven with Jesus and receiving their crown and well done my good and faithful servant. It is not them we cry for unless they have died without Christ. Then it is truly sad. I wish we had the mark of the believer now so we could know for sure. It is so important to spread God's message of salvation and truth so unbelievers see God's love through us. Thank you for your inspiration and love for Christ.
The effects of the locust stings are the main focus in this book. With the young trib force still separated we get a glimpse of how each member is spreading the Word of God. Another great book that I'm enjoying even though I am not the age demographic that it was originally written for. Highly recommend.
The continuation of the young adult/teens version of the Left Behind Series. It has some storyline mixed in with the adult original series characters and is a decent read for anyone interested in Christian fiction. It is based on how the author interprets the end times will happen/
A little more realism, simply because the characters are repeatedly threatened or arrested. The unbelievable part comes when they escape or are released for unrealistic reasons. Great biblical basis and prophecy descriptions. Recommend
I would want Vicki Bryne as a friend. I would want her as a friend because she is strong in her faith, courageous, and she almost always speaks her mind. Even though she gets in trouble because of her faith in God, I know shes does what she does foe the right reason. She's also good with people, even if they are against her, she's a good teacher, and she is very smart. Those are just some of the reasons I would choose Vicki Bryne as my friend.
