About this listen

Marilena Carpathia has only one dream; to be a mother. So when a mysterious clairvoyant promises the fulfillment of this dream, Marilena does not hesitate. Through genetic engineering and the power of the Prince of Darkness himself, Marilena is about to become a chosen vessel, one who will unknowingly give birth to the greatest evil the world has ever known.

Halfway around the world, God’s plans are subtly being carried out too. Young Ray Steele is determined to avoid one day taking over the family business. Instead, Ray sets his heart on becoming a pilot.

Soon Marilena’s offspring, Nicholae Carpathia and Ray Steele’s lives will intersect. Good and evil will clash in an explosion that will shake the world as the eternal battle for souls comes to earth, and the world hurtles toward the countdown to the Rapture!

Awesome

I loved this prequel to the left behind series. It gave me a lot of depth I am glad I was able to have even after I finished the series. Thanks. I really enjoyed the narrator and the story. Can't wait to see other books by these authors.

Prequel to Left Behind

Even though they say they are 13-15 in the series, do yourself a favor and read these first. You won't regret it God Bless!

The Rising: Left Behind Series

A number of memorable moments. Two were life threatening plane landings.

Loved the book, and as a prequel loved the earlier stories of the childhoods of the three main characters. Two being the heroes of the series of the set of books and the third the future, evil, antagonist of the world. Review by Linda L. Dreier

Great book.

Good story, but I think it should have come first. Set up complete story line.

Best Christian fiction

Now at the beginning of 2023, I’ve been looking for a Christian fiction author that is compelling and also hits home with times of the day. This is a great series. I’ve tried others, and am a longtime mystery, thriller reader in general. Jerry and Tim are able to create an interesting story with characters that come to life and interweave a Christian story that is not soft and fluffy, but compelling and action-packed.
