This book is the best of the series, and yesterday I realized why. For the first time in the entire set of books, we finally see a person -Rayford- become genuinely hurt by the horrible situation he is in. Millions -check that- BILLIONS have died or disapeared by the beginning of the 6th book, and all anyone in the Trib Force seemed to think about was the task at hand, or how wonderful Jesus is. Finally, Rayford reacts as many of us would in the same situation: sheer, uncontained rage. By the end of the 6th book, he has lost his son, BOTH of his wives and at least two members of the "Force." His home and city that he lives in has been reduced to rubble and a former friend had been impregnated by the Anti-Christ. Not to mention the fact that he has seen some of the most horrible events in the history of the known universe: plagues of locusts, fire and brimstone. For crying out loud, it is about time someone began to doubt their sanity!Unfortunately, however, the authors still resort to using background on the characters as not-so-thinly veiled sermons about sin and Christ as Savior. I realize that the authors are Christian theologians, and ultimately these books are evangelism, but it seems they missed the point. The interpretation of Revelation's plagues and horrors these people encounter are enough for the hairs on your neck to stand on end. Why not give more introspectives into the character's feelings and emotions through dealing with these events? Rayford is broken, and for the first time we see a man at odds with himself, the world and God. His rage during the burial scene in the first third of the book is the closest I have come to absolute empathy with the members of the Force. It is at these junctures that we can truly see what a force God can be in one's life.
