"The Rapture—the last of a three-part prequel and the 15th book in the adult titles of the Left Behind series—is scheduled for release June 6."
I'm not sure if that was planned or not. %)
[Addendum:
Obviously, the descriptions are very speculative. There are many different ways you can interpret Scripture, and there aren't many details about what heaven will be like. I looked at several resources and commentaries that Dr. LaHaye gave me, but many of them conflict with each other. Some consider a lot of biblical details about heaven to be figurative and symbolic, while others take the Scripture's descriptions literally. One of Dr. LaHaye's trademarks is to be literal when we can, so I try to stay faithful to that.
I haven't been as up with the three prequels (of which Rapture is the third) as I was with the original series, but migods, this book is going to be a trainwreck. Even worse than the first two prequels. Or the last book in the original series. *sob* I'm still going to *read* it, but...ugh, not exactly looking forward to it.]
