Book Description:
Tim LaHaye created the Left Behind Series, which has become one of the most popular fiction series of all time. Those novels, with more that 50 million copies sold, presented a unique combination of suspense and substance drawn from his lifelong study of Biblical prophecy.
Now Tim LaHaye has created a new series that begins with Babylon Rising. The novels in this new series are even faster-paced thrillers based on prophecies that are not covered in the Left Behind books and that have great relevance to the events of today.
Babylon Rising introduces a terrific new hero for our time. Michael Murphy is a scholar of Biblical prophecy, but not the sedate and tweedy kind. Murphy is a field archaeologist who defies danger to fearlessly hunt down and authenticate ancient artifacts from Biblical times. His latest discovery is his most amazing -- but it will send him hurtling from a life of excavation and revelations to a confrontation with the forces of the greatest evil. For the latest secret uncovered by Michael Murphy accelerates the countdown to the time of the end for all mankind.

Good read. I had to get past the archeological stuff just showing up almost instantly over a weekend. If you take that as part of the story it is very good.

The first in the series. If you know the bible or you are not as fimular with it, this book is great fiction based on Danial's story. Fast action, a Christian Indian Jones!
I have read them all!

Fans of Tim Lahaye will enjoy this book. Storyline a little slow moving. I found the character of Murphy engaging. Very easy, quick read.

Awsome read, a must read, but be sure to read them in order. You get so involved you can't put it down. The main character an archeologist on an adventure to prove the stories of the bible are true, given clues by a twisted mad man, he fights for his life along the way barely getting out of every scrap, each adventure gets more exciting then the last.

Baabylon Rising introduces a terrific new hero for our time. Michael Murphy is a scholar of Biblical prophecy but not the sedate and tweedy kind. Murphy is a field archaeologist who defies danger to fearlessly hunt down and authenticate ancient artifacts from Biblical times.

From the creator of the Left Behind series, this is a faster paced book. The main character goes off in pursuit of bible artifacts sent on his way by some mysterious person who seeks his death but will guarantee the artifact will be his if he is successful.

Konnie K. (This one is the first book in the new Tim Lahaye series "Babylon Rising". Again, It follows a biblical archaeologist that teaches in a smal college in the south. The book is based on finding the Brass Serpent that God used to heal the Israelites after they had been bitten by snakes and that Hezekiah broke in three pieces when the Israelites began worshiping it. Supposedly, if the pieces are connected, you could wield the Serpent for evil, and thus, have power to rule the world. Obviously, the story is age old, good vs evil. I just love this series and I think most people would like it.
