The Antichrist is dead... or is he? The city of Chicago lies in ruins, the safe house is blown, and the Global Community police are hot on the heels of the Tribulation Force. And who assassinated Nicolae Carpathia? It's a formidable challenge to keep the attention of an audience midway through a projected 12-volume series, but with their trademark blend of humor and gripping suspense, authors Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye continue to captivate readers with The Indwelling, the seventh installment of the Left Behind series. Carpathia's funeral takes a hair-raising turn for the 4 million people who attend. Over the crowd looms the centerpiece of a new world religion, a 24-foot bronze statue of Carpathia, belching black smoke and demanding obedience. Woven through the fast-paced drama are the ongoing stories of people struggling amid the end-times mayhem: Chloe Williams wrestles with the moral implications of killing her toddler Kenny to avoid having him fall into enemy hands; her father Rayford Steele is brought face-to-face with the consequences of his pride. Dr. Chaim Rosenzweig, a prominent Jewish Israeli statesman, ponders a conversion to Christianity. The strength of the series comes from Jenkins's ability to keep the action moving and readers caring about the characters. And there's a hook: The end of The Indwelling promises, "If the last three and a half years are your idea of tribulation, wait until you endure the Great Tribulation." The bad news is just beginning. But, the Tribulation Force believes, good news is also on the way. --Cindy Crosby
Product Description
A New York Times BestsellerTime and eternity seem suspended, and the destiny of mankind hangs in the balance. It's the midpoint of the seven-year Tribulation. A renowned man is dead, and the world mourns. In heaven, the battle of the ages continues to rage until it spills to earth and hell breaks loose. The members of the Tribulation Force -- just three in the safe house and the rest scattered about the globe -- face their most dangerous challenges. Is the safe house safe anymore? Is a Trib Force member guilty of murder? Who is the next comrade to die? Has help come from too unlikely a source?

 Another chapter padded out to novel length March 13, 2008
"The Indwelling" picks up where "Assassins" left off. But while "Assassins" at least had some chapters that were interesting, "The Indwelling" has nothing. This is not a novel, it's about 30 pages worth of plot stretched out to novel length. There is no reason that this and "Assassins" could not have been one volume. The only possible reason is that they just wanted to sell more books. Jenkins and LaHaye aren't even trying entertain or to tell a good story anymore.
"The Indwelling" gets the lowest possible score on any scale. Don't waste your money.
 God please let me finish this series October 23, 2007
Ok, It's getting harder and harder for me to finish these books, I'm thinking that the whole trib force is going to witness the glorious appearing, seems they go thru a whole lot and only end up with bumps and bruises. I'm glad they left Hattie out, because her indecisiveness is getting on my nerves,and only God and the GC knows where she is and what she's up to. as for Rayford, he's starting to irk me as well. And all of the people that should probably stay (that seem to make the book interesting for a sec)...are getting killed off. Towards the end I just read the first part of each paragraph and managed not to miss anything that was going on. The authors should not be permitted to write another book for the series since it could've ended at least 5 books ago
 Apocolypse Stories October 20, 2007
Another one of those Christian Fictions that bespeaks doom and destruction for all who don't turn their lives over to Jesus. If you can get past the religious psychobabble, its a good book. Otherwise, Buddha is a much better choice and his followers are typically less intolerant and war-like.
Just one more book in the all-encompassing, enthralling, and utterly absorbing Left Behind Series September 14, 2007
From the very first letter of the alphabet that my eyes looked upon inside this series of books, until the very last period of the very last sentence, I was hooked. Each one of these books absorbed my attention like no other book has ever done in my life. Biblically sound, theatrically entertaining, and brilliantly written, the Left Behind books will inspire you to dig into God's word and take the pieces of news from your T.V. screen and match them right smack-dab up with the prophecies of the Bible. Your hair will stand up, your heart will race, and you will find yourself helplessly caught in the suspense. Once you finish one of these books, you will desperately race to your computer screen or your local library to pick up the next one!

Indeed, the Beast is taking Possession... of Your Money September 11, 2007
0 out of 5 found this review helpful
Toward the top of this very page, the authors declare: "For some reason, I'm finding that a large percentage of people who greet us at signings, etc., and tell us they have read "all the books" actually haven't. They are largely unaware that between books 12 (Glorious Appearing) and 13 (Kingdom Come) we produced three prequels (The Rising, The Regime, and The Rapture). These need not be read before Kingdom Come (the final sequel), but if you're a Left Behind fan, you won't want to miss them.
Dr. LaHaye and I also have a new series -- fiction based on the gospels -- that began last November with John's Story: The Last Eyewitness. Late this year the second of the four titles, Mark's Story: The Gospel According to Peter will release. And, of course, we'll finish with Luke's Story and Matthew's Story. As always, I'd love to hear from you."
Indeed, they'd love to hear from you, to hear the sound of your money clinking in the cashbox of sanctimony. In addition to the Left Behind Series of 13 books, there are now audio-books (abridged and unabridged), parallel children's books (Children Left Behind!?! Have these sadists no shame?), movie versions, computer games (teaching bigotry and violence), and countless books pretentiously analyzing the novels as theology! And some people worry about Microsoft or Google accumulating too much influence! Just where is all the money going? What charity is Tim LaHaye supporting with his wealth? Bill Gates has a foundation to promote world health care. Can the false prophets account for their true profits?
