Despite the fact that it took me a whole year to finish the book, it is a great book. I'd highly recommend it to any pastor who might want to lead a book discussion group in their congregation. It would certainly challenge many common notions about what happens after death and encourage parishioners to become biblically aware of what Christianity is really all about.

A brilliant theological exposition on Christian eschatology, which has helped move many, including myself, away from Rapture theology. More review to come after second reading.

Not as exegetically rich as I thought it would be, and he spends a lot of time complaining about Enlightenment rationalism, Platonism, et al. Still, it's an illuminating book about an important subject. I would recommend it to evangelical Christians looking for a better grasp of what the Bible says about the afterlife.
