I'm not surprised you didn't like them. They're Christian pulp fiction. I've read most of the series, but I've only stuck with it because I'm interested in the subject of the end of the world (and, more specifically, the Christian 'take' on it). Quality English literature it aint. The characterisation is wooden and the plotline (by which I mean the story of the characters involved, not the overall Biblical narrative) swings erratically from the predictable to the outrageously improbable.
