Not to read at bedtime
2008-05-15 Like all of Joel Rosenberg's books, you have to wonder how close we are to this really happening. A frightening view of what no longer would seem impossible.
fantasy
2008-05-15 this book all has to do with the fantasy of the end of days promoted by the christian church -they have always been into a lot of ridiculous ideas in order to make money including their belief in a creator -this book continues the use of fear to mold people into being afraid to think for themselves-it is part of a very evil conditioning that will never help the human race evolve-
WOW!
2008-05-13 WOW! What a book!! Joel Rosenburg really out does himself with this one. If you've read the previous books and know the characters, this one will sadden, amaze and shock you. One of the best authors around in my opinion.
Fantastic Thriller
2008-05-12 Dead Heat is a gripping thriller that captures the reader from the first chapter. Reading about the end times prophecy as current events, made it impossible to put down. Hopefully, that state of affairs will not disable our nation as in the book, but Dead Heat made me aware that we must be ever vigilent to stop those who seek to destroy Israel and the United States. Thank you Joel Rosenberg for giving us a deeper understanding of the prophecies in the Bible and a glimpse of how we can have a brighter future in Christ.
Plot suicide
2008-05-11 Following on the heels of The Copper Scroll, possibly the most positive book in the series, Dead Heat is certainly the most negative. In the introduction, Rosenberg states that this book is the final one in the series originating out of The Last Jihad, which was not initially meant to be part of a series at all. One might suspect that Rosenberg might, once again, be persuaded to continue the series, as he has before, but after only a few pages his determination to end the series becomes quite clear. Dead Heat is a story that has no plot beyond the utter destruction of its principle characters. Three-hundred-seventy-four pages appears to be what it takes to destroy everything. Still, it's no a book to be put down and forgotten about. The writing is as sophisticated as the previous books. Is it worth the read? Certainly, but not if you're feeling depressed and have a gun in the closet.
