“Thunder of Heaven,” second in the “End series,” continues a fictionalized account of the “end of days” written about in Revelation set in the not too distant future. This time military hero Joshua Jordan, his influential family and wife, Abigail join with a group of underground patriots to stop a terrorist nuclear attack on New York City. An event that could include an attack on Israel, yet no one in government will listen to Joshua’s warning.
The story opens with “…National Airlines Flight 433 to Denver…” waiting for clearance from ground control to taxi down the runway at JFK International airport. In a nearby warehouse the terrorists go over the final details of their mission. Hassan, their leader, clicks on the Sat-fone, “…and waited until a woman inside the terminal answered…”
When she did she told him the pilots were still waiting for clearance, she said, “…I will tell you when it [the plane] starts taxiing down the runway…”
“…we’ll need two minutes lead time…” he reminded her.
“…I will make you proud…” she said and hung up.
Deborah Jordan, daughter of Joshua Jordan and wife Abigail, normally flew aboard her “…father’s private Citation X jet…,” not because she had a “rich-kid attitude. She just loved being home and wanted to get there and didn’t want to wait while the jet’s security upgrades were installed. Her last minute ticket purchase had placed her in coach instead of first class, but she didn’t care. Her father’s RTS system was on board…
However, Joshua, who developed the “return to sender missile prevention system,” aka RTS is the target of a White House conspiracy to discredit him after Flight 199 from Chicago has been shot down without survivors.
Add political and governmental corruption, conspiracies, global warming, a prominent climatologist’s new discovery threat, capture by terrorists, a life-and-death escape, a Mall of America bombing and this gripping action adventure is hard to let go.
Bestselling authors Tim LaHaye and Craig Parshall skillfully place the reader in the center of an action-packed account with events that could be torn from today’s headlines. Although they use Bible prophecies about Israel and the United states, knowledge of prophecy is not necessary to understand or enjoy their compelling story of global intrigue, danger and deception.
Fans of this author’s “Left Behind” series pushed sale copies into the seventy million mark and made LaHaye a “household name.” This new series is as relevant and good and could become the next publishing phenomena similar to the “Left Behind” series.
