DESECRATION

Antichrist Nicholae Carpathia has created a golden idol and throne in the sacred city of Babylon and desecrated sacred Judeo-Christian sites in the Holy Land. But members of Christ’s Tribulation Force continue to oppose him, working to fulfill biblical prophecy. Frank Muller recreates his complex and individual characters from THE MARK, the last book in the Left Behind series. But even his rich voice and masterful performance cannot overcome the limitations of this text. Throughout the book, listeners wonder when the plot will get going, and at the end of the last tape we are left hanging with nothing resolved. Combined with earlier books in the series and those yet to come, DESECRATION might make some sense. But on its own it falters. R.P.L. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 02]
