I shall be brief. I'm listening to the audio version of this book, and my comments center around the performance of the audio version. If you're reading on paper, another review will be more suitable.

I have listened to Hank Hanegraaf's radio show, off & on, for a few years now. In the show he answers the hard Bible questions that callers ask—sometimes topical, most times not. Needless to say he gets a lot of questions about Revelation. He holds a partial Preterist view, which has always intrigued me, and so I got the book.

I'm only in the first chapter but I doubt I will hear him say anything doctrinally that I wholeheartedly disagree with. I'm not a "capital D dispensationalist" and it's good to be versed in all viewpoints anyway, so that's not a problem.

The problem is that Hank is reading his own book. Very poorly. I realize he's a professional radio guy, and the radio show is mostly conversation so there's no problem there. In fact he has a nice delivery.

Not so, this book. He will read, a FEW words and then. PAUSE for a moment. to EMPHASISE half a phrase and then, say the rest. and WITHOUT, Meaningful, inflection at the end.

That was a little example of what I'm hearing. I don't have time to read, I listen on my commute or when folding clothes, etc. I need an audiobook. And I'm very interested in this topic and what Hank has to say. I trust him. But I doubt I'll be able to finish this book.
