Amazon.com Starting just a few days after Jesus Christ snatched the faithful to heaven in The Vanishings (the first book in the Left Behind: The Kids series), Through the Flames opens with our four teen heroes shacked up in Judd's abandoned house. Judd, Vicki, and Lionel are still trying to convince Ryan that he should accept Christ if he knows what's good for him--Judd even makes Ryan go to church and Bible study as a condition of living with them. ("As long as you live under my roof, you follow my rules....") But even bigger problems are brewing. The four must stay on the lookout for the Antichrist, whom their Bible mentor Bruce says will trigger seven years of tribulation once he signs a pact with Israel. And Lionel has to investigate the mysterious circumstances of his drug-addled uncle's supposed death. The Evangelical Christian science fiction series Left Behind: The Kids is a youth-oriented story line based on Jerry B. Jenkins and Tim LaHaye's bestselling Left Behind. (Ages 9 to 12) --Paul Hughes
Product Description This series is based on the best-selling adult Left Behind series. Readers will see the Rapture and Tribulation through the eyes of four kids who have been left behind.

Do not pass by the left behind! May 19, 2007
The left behind by Jerry B. Jenkins is not a very fun book and it is not all the exciting that I wouldn't recommend for anyone to read but if you want to that is your choice. First it started out about this guy named Mr. Tompson went on a vacation by himself and then when he was on there and he met this guy named Rayford and he found out that he was a Preacher but now Mr. Tompson doesn't know weather to believe if he is a good guy or a bad guy because he has been caught causing some trouble. Rayford has a sister the he doesn't like that much and she didn't tell him that she was going to cut all of her hair off to look like a guy. Rayford has a soon to be wife and her name is Vicki and she went t visit him but she doesn't know that he is cheating on her! The two main characters are Mr. Tompson and this one girl named Missy that Mr. Tompson is cheating on with his wife. Mr. Tompson is described as a of showoff, sometimes hyper but in the spare time he likes to cause trouble but when he doesn't cause some bad trouble he Preaches. I don't really get him at all but I can tell you that he has some mood swings and I mean that he has some strange mood swings. When he does get into trouble he sucks up to the cops. He is usually a very brave person and people know him as a "major nerd that causes trouble" and sometimes he can be a scardy cat. Now the second main character is Missy. Ok so Missy is going out with Mr. Tompson and she knows that he has a soon to be wife which is her best friend and personally I think that is seriously messed up. She has long blonde hair and the people in the book said that she dresses nerdy. What I don't see is why Mr. Tompson is cheating on his soon to be wife and she is rich and she dresses pretty well. I think that he must be like really mental or something. Missy is a stuck up brat but in at other hand she is smart and intelligent, but what I don't really like about her is that when she does something wrong she blames it on other people. I will describe her as a stuck up snot! Well I think that you should read this book about a 25% and I think that you shouldn't read it about a 75% so if you do or not it's your choice!
Christian propaganda? Yeah Right! February 28, 2005 S. Wisler (Montana, U.S.) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Mark Moore has it wrong. This book may be Christian, but it is not propaganda. It tells about something that I (and many other people) believe will happen. Mark says that it is "ludicrous" to believe that the world would be in chaos if all the Christians disappeared. Give me a break! Let's see millions of people from around the world disappear at the same time and without warning and not have chaos. Again, give me a break! I think that Mark's accusations are ludicrous. "An evil religion prepetuated by zealous idiots"?!? Yeah right! Christians are as normal as anyone else. In the Bible, the book of Revelation takes only "20 pages" because it gives enough detail to understand what is going to happen, yet doen not put the situation into into the personal experiences of a few people. The Left Behind series are much longer becuase they do describe the happenings in the personal experiences of different people.
As for the quality of the book, I really enjoyed this book, as well as the others in the series. The kids series is not as good as the adult series, yet it is still really good. Read and enjoy.
Series for adults now rewritten for teens December 26, 2004 Kelli (Somewhere out west) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have always enjoyed the adult series of Left Behind books. The kids books are just as good. The kids interact with the characters from the adult series, experience the same events, etc. However, since the main characters are teens, these books can appeal to younger readers. So far, the stories haven't had the ups and downs that the adult series has had. The adult series has books that are a lot more boring than others. The kids series seems to be good in every book. These are not for really young kids, but would be appropriate for young teens. I enjoy them and I am an adult.
A truly unique series! October 12, 2003 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We last left off with Judd, Vicki, Lionel, and Ryan trying to cope with the loss of their families in the Rapture of the church. Lionel's Uncle Andre has taken over his house with a gang of his as well. To prove his bravery, Ryan goes off in search of information for Lionel, and still undecided. What will Ryan's choice be? Andre gets into some trouble, and Lionel must again face another loss. The four go out in search of Leroy, a member of Andre's gang/murderer. With the help of Sergant Thomas Fogarty, Judd sets up with a sting, and waits for Leroy to "get his." This book was great, and the series is wonderful! I encourage people to go out and buy this series!
