Damascus Countdown - Joel C Rosenberg

This is the 3rd book in this series by Rosenberg.  I've read each book - one a summer as part of Tyndale's Reading Program.  Once again the novel was fast paced, edge of your seat suspense.  The false messiah has plans to wipe out the infidels with a nuclear weapon.  He is rapidly becoming the leader of all Muslim states.  The CIA operative David/Reza are on a mission to find the missing 2 nukes.  Back at home, his mother has died, Marseille is hanging on to hope he'll make it home alive, and the government is not sure what to do next.  Israel is in much the same state.  Many characters, and many different scenes to follow, but they all are woven into the storyline.  After reading on 1300 pages in this saga I can say without a doubt that Rosenberg knows his Bible and how to use it!  This well crafted novel carries you through the story while also challenging your knowledge and beliefs in the Bible.  Highly recommend it for those that like end-time stories.
