Joel Rosenberg is great! June 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Joel Rosenberg's latest end-times thriller is as exciting as his others. I have to admit that I preferred the detailed information about Israel in The Copper Scroll, but Dead Heat paints a clear picture of how history could play out very soon.
Great Book June 5, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Dead Heat (Political Thrillers Series #5) This book is a must read. It is fast paced and will keep you on the edge of your seat waiting for the next page, and what happens next. The fiction is written in a way that lends understanding to possible future facts and events.
I couldn't put it down! June 5, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a book you won't want to miss. I believe it to be spot on, meaning we're definitely in for a ride, therefore, as Americans, we better all wake up soon and stop living in denial. Rosenburg is an awesome author and because what he writes is based on biblical prophesy, the "fiction" he is writing is coming to pass. Stay tuned and take heed!
Disappointing In Many Ways June 4, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
While this book tries to be many different things, it fails at most of them. There are several large plot holes that leave the reader wondering what Rosenburg was trying to say.
-Why would the ships that launched the nuclear missles be sunk? Most of the later "hand wringing" about who perpetrated the deed would have answered by interrogating crew members.
-The F/A-18 strafes the launch ship just before it was to launch another missle, but nothing more is said about additional targets.
-The inclusion of the Bennetts in this story seems almost an afterthought. While the overall situation spirals out of control, we are expected to believe the Israelis are dedicating resources to "protecting" the Bennetts. And Israeli commandos into North Korea, based out of Japan...?
-Even the description of the Rapture event is disappointing. Instead of detailing the shocking events that would surround such an event, we get a tepid description centered on an Israeli character. The setup of the next book is so obvious, it hurts.
Read it if you must, but don't be surprised at your disappointment. I sure was.
A Right Wing Religious Wing Nut Book Save your $ June 4, 2008 1 out of 11 found this review helpful
This book is a rapture rant in disguise as a political thriller premised on 4 major cities being nuked by cruise missles off the shores of the US. Either Bush has told him of his next October suprise or some one who peddles a brand of christianity that says I'm the only one worthy of being with God cooked up this hatchet job of a book. I bought the book, and stupid me I also purchased the audio book dumb me. I can't figure out why I didn't understand many of the scenarios in this book, when a previous commenter mentioned you would have had to read all of his books to get it. Save your money.
