1) Hardcover Book Dead Heat (Political Thrillers Series #5) by Tyndale House Publishers. This was the first book in a long time where I actually put off reading too fast it because I didn´t want it to end. I loved this book from start to "finish". I say "finish" because I keep hearing that this is the last book in the series but I hope it isn´t. Joel did leave the ending open in the spirit of `The Lady or the Tiger´. This book had the classic storytelling of Joel written all over it. The pace is non-stop, the destruction is great and brutal, the enemies are satanically evil, and the "point-of-no-return" world changing events are jaw dropping!

This was a magnificent "ending" to a MAGNIFICENT SERIES!! I was wary about reading it because I didn´t want to be hit in the face with "Jesus said this" and "Jesus said that" but Joel didn´t do that. Does this series have an obvious religious message? Absolutely. And I´m ok with that; I just don´t like being preached at. In `The Ezekiel Option´ we find out that God destroys Israel´s enemies and thus starts the prophecy about the end of the world. `The Copper Scroll´ continues this and in this book I was wondering how in the world he would write it and how it would "end". This was a very, very good read but as I got to the end I was wondering how it would wrap up. There was so much story left and I was running out of pages!! That is why I´m hoping that this is NOT the end of the series because...well... I don´t want it to be! :-)

I loved how Joel put pieces of the apocalypse in the story and you literally have to go back and re-read it because you´re like "huh?, what?". It must have taken me as long to read the final few chapters as it did the whole book because of everything that was going on and because of the magnitude of everything going on. But Joel has a way of writing so that the story isn´t crowded with all the action and angles. This book is very, very sad because some of my friends that have been with me since book #1 have some very bad things happen to them and people around them. Joel tells the story and does not spare anyone when the story called for it. This book is also pretty brutal and cut-throat. The violence is high but not gratuitous. The bloodshed is here but it´s doesn´t drive the story.

This is Joel´s fictional account of the last days based on teachings that have been around for over 2,000 years and it´s equally fascinating and frightening. Religious or not this series needs to be on your list.¤

3) Hardcover Book Dead Heat (Political Thrillers Series #5) by Tyndale House Publishers. I felt this was nothing more than a sci-fi book and not up to the standards of the previous books in the series. I couldn´t finish it. Very disappointing from such a good author.¤

6) Hardcover Book Dead Heat (Political Thrillers Series #5) by Tyndale House Publishers. For Jon and Erin Bennett, the world seems to be spinning dangerously out of control. A new dictator is rising in Iraq. China is making threatening new moves toward Taiwan. North Korean forces appear ready to strike south. Israel is feverishly trying to complete the Third Temple. Oil prices are surging. And in the wake of an horrific war in the Middle East, President James MacPherson´s second term is coming to an end. Now the battle to succeed him is heating up into one of the most fiercely contested presidential elections in American history, and the Bennetts realize the stakes could not be higher. Who will lead a bitterly divided country over the next four years? What can the U.S. do to shape the new world order? And just what role--if any--does the U.S. play in the last days? As the presidential campaign narrows into a dead heat, the Secret Service learns of a catastrophic plot to assassinate one of the candidates--but which one, and can the terrorists be stopped in time?¤
