this book would be true. I believe this novel is probably the most realistic portrayal of conditions during the tribulation period before the return of Christ. The loneliness of a world without a moral compass, the depravity of those left behind, the sorrows of a world without hope. This is not a book for children or teens. There are explicit scenes of sexual and violent nature. There is coarse language. The characters are flawed humans, some good, some bad. Character development is very good.It is your basic left behind story, with a core group of Christian heroes fleeing from the enemy, both the forces of the anti-christ and godless revolutionaries. Then there are hordes of evil once human cannibals (I usually scoff at zombies, but these are plausible).There are some mechanical flaws, with poor grammar and awkward word choices. There are also some editing issues. But after the first couple of chapters, they were no longer distracting.After finishing this book at two in the morning, I tried to find the sequel. Please don't leave me hanging!
