John's Story:The Last Eyewitness

I was not sure what to expect from this book. I have read the entire left behind set of books and enjoyed them. I do not agree with all the details but it is still a good read.
This book, I thought, was to be a novel on the life of John the apostle.
It did part of that taking place when John is in his 90's.
I found the parts of a struggling Church and how apostasy was creeping in very interesting.
What I did not enjoy as much was that 50% of the book seemed word for word from the New Testament.
It never hurts to read scripture but i had expected more.
He has 3 more books in this set covering Matthew, Mark and Luke. I have them all on CD so will give them a listen but not too quickly I think.
