Book review by Terry James
The topic of the Rapture and its place in Bible prophecy has of late captured the attention of even the previously uninterested believers and, I’ve noticed, unbelievers as well.
The interest generated by the “Feast of Trumpets” celebration just past, like always on such Jewish days of historical demarcation, raised anticipation of the possibility of that great Eventhappening this year.
It didn’t of course, so there is significant disappointment and even crises of Faith as a result.
Despite that disappointment, however, make no mistake. The Rapture will happen…I believe much sooner than anyone thinks.
Constance O Wyler has captured the Biblical Truth of that coming Event in her masterfully written novel series. I urge all who want to get a sense of what the Rapture will mean to believers and to unbelievers to get this latest volume.
The Untaken series by Constance O Wyler consists of four books that not only cover the first twelve hours after the Rapture, but also twelve days, twelve weeks, and twelve months.
Written in first person from different perspectives, the series shows how traumatic and heartbreaking it will be to be “untaken” or left behind after the Rapture. While the first book deals with Sarah Colton wanting an abortion and then all children, including those in the womb, disappear, the second book deep-dives into an AI implant that wants to control Sarah. The third and fourth books have Sarah meeting a young computer hacker who lives on a large cattle ranch in Idaho, while everything changes for the worse. When the Antichrist establishes a seven-year treaty with Israel, Sarah and her friends yearn to stop being under constant surveillance and learn how to survive the first year after the Biblical event that will alter the world.
All four books focus on how important it is to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, hopefully before the Rapture occurs. The eternal plan of salvation is clearly explained in each book as the characters make a decision to follow Christ or not.
Wyler’s fourth and final book, UNTAKEN FOR NOW, was recently released, and it will, I believe, excite believers in Christ’s promise to rapture them and cause unbelievers to seriously consider their need to come to Jesus Christ for salvation. This series is a truly God-sent story for these end days.

Hey brother thanks for your writings and also a review
However, I have the first two books on my Kindle and I would recommend people read an excerpt from the books before buying. I can appreciate where the author is coming from and it is definitely a unique perspective but I could not wrap my head around the premise. It’s rather like that classic Screwtape Letters (not necessarily in style or content), and I could not get on with that book either which, obviously says a lot more about me than the book!
My husband thoroughly enjoyed the books.
Dear Terry, In regard to your statement that Jesus could return for us sooner than we think: do you think He could come back before 32/33 AD?
Jesus can come as I’m writing this or when you are reading it. There is nothing that has to happen before the Imminent (any Moment) Rapture of believers in Christ –the Church. Do I believe He will Call the Church into Heaven before the date you mention? Yes I do believe it will happen very soon –perhaps today! All signals for the Tribulation are in view, and the Rapture will happen at least 7 years before the Tribulation begins.
Respectfully Terry, I believe you mean to say the Rapture will happen at least 7 years before the Tribulation ends, not begins.
