Karen's Book Nook

Starting book 2, The Last Days in the political thriller series by Joel C. Rosenberg. Listening to the audio book while getting things done this weekend. My paper reading has been dwindling due to lack of time but thank god for audio books!

About the book:

With over 400,000 copies in print, this New York Times best-seller opens with White House advisors Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy heading into Gaza when their convoy is attacked by a massive explosion. Soon, Yassir Arafat is dead, Islamic radicals are trying to take over the West Bank and Gaza, Iraqi terrorists are targeting Americans, and Bennett begins to wonder if he is witnessing signs of the last days before the return of Christ. Since The Last Days was first published, Arafat has died and Hamas has taken over the Palestinian Authority.

Starting a new audio book to listen to while I work around the house and get things done this weekend. The Last Jihad is  the first in a series by Joel C. Rosenberg

About the book:

The book that started it all, The Last Jihad is the first of Joel C. Rosenberg’s New York Times best-selling series, with 500,000 in print. The first page puts readers in the cockpit of a hijacked jet on a kamikaze mission into an American city–but it was written nine months before 9/11/01. As the plot unfolds, White House advisors Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy are under attack in Jerusalem as the U.S. goes to war with Iraq over weapons of mass destruction–but The Last Jihad was published four months before the actual Iraq war began.
