I'm kind of in a weird reading funk right now. I’ve started and stopped about five books, reading the first couple pages, maybe the first chapter or so and just not getting into the story and having to put the book back. It’s strange, I can’t recall going through a period like this, maybe just a touch of spring fever.

Anyway, I did pick this up, which is the sequel to The Third Millennium that I just finished a few weeks ago. While the previous book talks about the time of the Tribulation as described in the Bible, this book talks about the 1000 year reign of Jesus on earth before the final judgment. This time period has always fascinated me when I heard it mentioned in church over the years and during my reading of the original Left Behind books, the beginning of this time period is where the final book left off (they may have written about it sense, I haven’t followed that series).

This book picks up about 999 years into the reign and we see where Satan is released for the final battle. The story is contrived yet interesting enough. Had this not been a quick read I may not have finished this one either, but this only took a few hours to pour through. Interesting enough adventure story, with a Christian background and viewpoint. If you enjoy this type of book, not a bad choice. While they try to stay biblical, don’t look for any great theological truth here, just a good story. ( )
