Stuck having to choose from his love and sense of duty, the story speaks about how he gets over his difficulties and follows his destiny. The author, through this book, passes on the message that there is a purpose behind every soul's existence and he guides the reader to learn a number of useful lessons that man has to learn from his life. The story is set in the 9th century BC, when young Elijah is forced to flee for his life and take refuge in the city of Zarephath. There he befriends a widow, who is a worshipper of Baal-a god who resides on the fifth mountain and falls in love with her. But with the circumstances conspiring against him, he is faced with the task of proving himself and fulfilling his mission from god to restore his worship in Israel. The Fifth Mountain is another powerful and inspirational masterpiece of the author and it is a blend of philosophy, mysticism, spirituality and moral instructions. The author of this book is Paulo Coelho and it was published by Harper in 2005. This book is available in paperback. Key Features: This book has a ranking of four in the Religious and Spiritual Fiction category. Review: GIVE LIFE ANOTHER CHANCE, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN AT THE VERY NEXT MOMENT.” - THIS BOOK REVIEW IS ONLY BASED ON MY FEELINGS DURING READING THE BOOK. IT DOES NOT INTENT TO HURT ANYONE’S FEELINGS, AND DOES NOT MEANT TO COMPARE WITH ANY OTHER REVIEWER’S FEELINGS. “ Yes it was the first feeling that came to my mind when I first finished the book. This brilliant narrative takes us to the path of a simple person, who eventually becomes to be called as a prophet, first becomes a victim of the circumstances & after realization, fought back to conquer his destiny. The author portrayed here the plot as a historical narrative, based on some ancient cities of Lebanon, & with passage of time taught us some much valuable life lessons. Though sometimes use of the Old style of English Language may create problems for the readers but one has to remember that it actually a translation from the original Portuguese writing. So if the originality was not maintained, the essence might have been lost. The thing I liked most in this reading is it’s simplicity of the narrative, and some serious life lessons through a few words, what the author had given. Anyone who is fond of spiritual writings, it is a must read. Though it is kind of an offence to give rating for a creation from an author like Paulo Coelho, but from a reader’s perspective My Rating is 4.5/5.0. Review: A Good short read ! - Paulo delves deeper into life's purpose and god's ways to teach about devotion. More like the alchemist, but writing and narration are on point. ## Features - Harper Collins India - Based on the biblical figure prophet Elijah, the novel The Fifth Mountain narrates the life of the young prophet and his struggles with god. - It is made up of premium quality material. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #19,933 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #331 in Literary Theory, History & Criticism #1,370 in Contemporary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,969 Reviews | ## Images ![The Fifth Mountain - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51NgGSWXfAL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GIVE LIFE ANOTHER CHANCE, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN AT THE VERY NEXT MOMENT.” *by F***D on 4 August 2019* THIS BOOK REVIEW IS ONLY BASED ON MY FEELINGS DURING READING THE BOOK.
