Description
The original The Left Behind novels, which describe in lurid detail the adventures of sinners left behind to battle the Anti-Christ, are some of the bestselling Christian books on the market. Here, in the hands of famed science fiction writer Terry Bission, the reader is treated to a parody - The Left Left Behind. It is a sardonic, merciless, take-no-prisoners satire of the entire apocalyptic enterprise that spares no one - predatory preachers, Goth lingerie, Indian casinos, gangster rap and even art cars at the Burning Man festival.
