Format:Paperback
I read this one after the alchemist and veronika decides to die so it was a very different read. I found it quite long winded in places and it dragged a bit but definately full of shocks and it does make you think alot about how you can react to situations in life. Its worth a read, as with all his books but everyone will have their own favourites. This wouldnt be mine....

Format:Paperback
Out of all of the books this for me is the best. It explores the morals of humanity, the struggles between right and wrong. The reader is thrust into the world of Miss Prym, a barmaid with little prospects in a secular community. A meeting with a mysterious traveller is about to change all of that. A great reward for a terrible exploit, who will be tempted? I wasn't able to put the book down until I had read it from cover to cover.

Format:Paperback
Beautifully laid plot, elements of paganism, druidism, christianity and spirituality all intermeshed into the world of Paulo Coelho.

A lovely story about whether we are good or evil when pushed to the limit. As a story, I personally prefer 'Veronica decides to die' but if you like Paulo Coelho, then this is... Read more

spiritual not preachy
Loved the book which sets a moral dilema and then resolves it via an interesting story although the outcome seems obvious it keeps you reading just to see if you agree. Read more

not as good as the rest
While I loved the Alchemist and Veronika Decides to Die, I found this book a little dissapointing. It didn't move me as deeply or profoundly as the former two. Read more
