Our view
“Nicolae”, the third “Left Behind” novel, continues the cycle’s Christian end-times thriller drawn from a reading of the Book of Revelation. Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins picture a world in which a new global order drives believers into hiding. Some readers find it busier and slower going than the first two books. It makes sense mainly as one link in a longer story, for readers who mean to follow that story through.

About the book
Left Behind is a multimedia franchise of apocalyptic fiction written by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, released by Tyndale House Publishers from 1995 to 2007. The bestselling novels are Christian eschatological narratives expounding LaHaye's dispensationalist interpretation of the New Testament's Book of Revelation. This includes the rapture of Christian believers prior to a tumultuous seven-year period known as the Great Tribulation, the main conflict narrated by the original 12 books. After rising to power, the Antichrist installs a new world order that oppresses Christian converts and forces them into hiding until Jesus's Second Coming, preceding a thousand years of peace.
