 Not biblical, Preachy, and Badly Written June 15, 2008
1 out of 5 found this review helpful
Clancy fans do not read this. It's full of annoying, preachy evangelical banter and it's ideas are NOT biblical. For example, the book ends with the Rapture, which is not biblical, and is found nowhere is the scripture cannon. The Rapture teaching starting with a minister in the Church of Scotland, Edward Irving, in the 1830s. It is NOT biblical.
The book's plot is sloppy and it's pacing is terrible. I can't believe Glen Beck had this author on his program. And Rush Limbaugh endorsed it on the cover! How could so many people give this book a good review? God help us.
 Dead Heat book was a real page turner June 14, 2008
This is a great book - couldn't put it down. It is today's world situation so it is very relevant.

bewarned! This is a book of Evangelical rhetoric with brief moments of action. Redundant in its one sided exploration of characters and coflict Rosenberg only fleshes out the perspectives of characters that are christians.
Thought-provoking... June 12, 2008
If you're a Joel Rosenberg fan, then I'm sure you'll love this book as I did.
Regardless if you believe in Rosenberg's worldview, you still should take his stuff seriously. He does a great job at taking our current affairs and speculating with how things could end up.
I gave it four stars, since I don't think that it was his best novel - and doesn't entirely measure up to other political thrillers (from a writing standpoint).
I would encourage anyone to sit down and go through Dead Heat just for the heck of it. It's a great page-turner, and will keep you guessing through the whole thing!
Dead Heat June 8, 2008

I couldn't put this book down! Joel C. Rosenberg has done such extensive research, and most importantly, connects Scripture to the facts and the "what ifs". I now "see" and understand much more about the future based on Scripture than I did before reading Dead Heat even though I've been reading the Bible daily. If you are already a Christian, you can "connect the dots", and if you aren't, this is great "food" for thought.
