WOW! May 13, 2008 WOW! What a book!! Joel Rosenburg really out does himself with this one. If you've read the previous books and know the characters, this one will sadden, amaze and shock you. One of the best authors around in my opinion.
a wonderful read May 12, 2008 This was a fast paced, exciting, fun-to-read book. Joel Rosenberg is a superb writer! All his books are riveting!
Fantastic Thriller May 12, 2008 Dead Heat is a gripping thriller that captures the reader from the first chapter. Reading about the end times prophecy as current events, made it impossible to put down. Hopefully, that state of affairs will not disable our nation as in the book, but Dead Heat made me aware that we must be ever vigilent to stop those who seek to destroy Israel and the United States. Thank you Joel Rosenberg for giving us a deeper understanding of the prophecies in the Bible and a glimpse of how we can have a brighter future in Christ.
Plot suicide May 11, 2008 Following on the heels of The Copper Scroll, possibly the most positive book in the series, Dead Heat is certainly the most negative. In the introduction, Rosenberg states that this book is the final one in the series originating out of The Last Jihad, which was not initially meant to be part of a series at all. One might suspect that Rosenberg might, once again, be persuaded to continue the series, as he has before, but after only a few pages his determination to end the series becomes quite clear. Dead Heat is a story that has no plot beyond the utter destruction of its principle characters. Three-hundred-seventy-four pages appears to be what it takes to destroy everything. Still, it's no a book to be put down and forgotten about. The writing is as sophisticated as the previous books. Is it worth the read? Certainly, but not if you're feeling depressed and have a gun in the closet.
Exciting Picture of the End Times. May 10, 2008 Rosenberg captures the attention of his readers from the first page again. It was a great read as it explores a possible scenario of what will happen to the USA in the next few years.
Rosenberg's imagination catapults the readers mind into examining their own lives to see if they are ready for the End. It puts the meaning of life into perspective with what is really important in the event that as a Christian has been caught up in the values of the world. In the end, it shows how insignificant these things are.
A compelling book. A great Read....and a life changer if you are ready!
