This is my 3rd Mark Goodwin series. I have been captivated throughout the first two, and this series was no different. Goodwin did a great job of developing his characters and interweaving the various storylines. Although Goodwin chose a different timing for end time events in relation to the rapture than those that I believe (more of a pre-wrath viewpoint), that was not a problem. I was in tears at the end and had goosebumps from the strong sense that soon we will be facing situations such as he had written… and that my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ will soon be calling His bride home.
