review:1 stars (ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE) - Most boring book I've read in a long time. If I wanted more info about prophesies and the 'last days', I would read the Bible or the 'Left Behind' series. This is a religious pamphlet disguised as a novel4 stars (A Good Credible Account Of The Future.) - It took me four days to read the Ezekiel Option cover to cover. The story was well written and probably had a more elitist appeal than the populous interest of the Left Behind series. Nevertheless, the writing was more concise and better articulated with a fuller dimensionality to all the characters involved. The biggest factor about the book is a peek into a probable future drawn from biblical prophecy and its interpretation. The fact that it is based upon a fictitious environment makes it all the more readable. It is highly digestible and it picks up approximately two to four weeks before the rapture of the church. The only troubling aspect of the book is the much too touted benevolent light that it paints of our government and the agencies supposedly representing the people at large. Come on, the NSA, CIA, FEMA, and the Oval Office approachable by the average citizenry?! Other than that, you can actually relate to the characters on a more than superficial level. The action and intrigue are fast-paced and the opulent settings that the characters live in because of their stature and importance is laudable. Who's paying for it anyway? The fact that a large number of people have to die to achieve world progress is appalling at best when God through Jesus Christ is going to overturn it anyway as described in this work of fiction. Personally, I think The Ezekiel Option answers a lot of questions concerning the End Times and the catastrophes to come in an entertaining novelization of one possible future.5 stars (massive anxiety attack) - I'm only half way through and the reason I haven't finished is that I'm scared. I'm dying to get back into it yet it's so frightening that I put it off. Plus it's not one of those books you can read before going to sleep. Once you start, your eyes will bug out, your heart will pound, you'll be able to see your pulse racing and there will be no sleep. Not good on a work night. In spite of all this I think about what's happening in the book while I'm at work, driving back and forth and right now as a matter of fact, while it's still light out I've got to go. Maybe I can finish it before it gets dark...... |
