In 1995, the end-times thriller Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth’s Last Days—co-written by minister and speaker Tim LaHaye and novelist Jerry B. Jenkins—was released to Christian booksellers. The novel, which put LaHaye’s particular eschatological views into narrative form, exploded into a publishing phenomenon, with a whole series of titles that have collectively sold more than 63 million copies. Along the way, the series sparked debate and discussion in churches, communities and across the internet about biblical prophecy and the End Times. The Left Behind brand includes twelve adult novels, three prequels, one sequel, a set of 40 juvenile novels, audio books, devotionals and graphic novels. Seven titles in the adult series reached No. 1 on the bestseller lists for the New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly. All sixteen adult titles appeared on all the major bestseller lists. Recently, Cloud Ten Pictures announced they planned to reboot the film series with an all new Left Behind motion picture for theatrical release.
