You have never read a book like this before...

The Celestine Prophecy contains secrets that are currently changing our world. Drawing on the ancient wisdom found in a Peruvian manuscript, it tells you how to make connections between the events happening in your own life right now...and lets you see what is going to happen to you in the years to come.

A book that has been passed from hand to hand, from friend to friend, since it first appeared in small bookshops across America, The Celestine Prophecy is a work that has come to light at a time when the world deeply needs to read its words. The story it tells is a gripping one of adventure and discovery, but it is also a guidebook that has the power to crystalize your perceptions of why you are where you are in life...and to direct your steps with a new energy and optimism as you head into tomorrow.

A book that comes along just once in a lifetime to change lives forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book changed my life, 24 Nov 2000
By A Customer
I first read this book about three years ago when I was sixteen. At that time I was depressed, ill and thought nothing could make that go away. I read this book in three days, i just couldn't put it down. I can only describe it as a ray of light that shattered that darkness and changed my life. I have read the other reviews posted here and resent those people who try to make those of us who enjoyed this book look naive. I am an English honours degree student at one of the top universities in the country and yes, I recognise the weaknesses in the books written style, but I feel we should overlook this. James Redfield is not trying to present us with a piece of great literature, he trying to give us something enlightening, something to make us think and give some hope for our future, something many of us desperately need. The Celestine Prophecy remains one of my favourite books, I remain grateful to James Redfield for writing it and mostly I would hope to unreservedly reccommend this book to everyone who feels there is something missing in their life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not necessarily "the answer" - but a good place to start !, 4 Jan 2002
By Peter Jones (Leigh-on-Sea, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read this book because I kept bumping into people who would casually mention it and how good they thought it was. I think I was fortunate in that the people who passed it to me didn't rave about it to much, and warned me that the writing and story line was a little "weak".

I read a chapter a day on the train and to be honest couldn't have stomached much more per day; it was difficult to get into. However, by the time I got to "insight" four or five I was beginning to see past the "story" and becoming more and more intruiged by some of the underlying elements. They gave me a different way of looking at things in my life that I'd never quite managed to get my head round. All of a sudden I was hooked, and I'd become one of those people for who "the book has changed their life".

It's important to realise that actually there's nothing new here, and some of the insights are echoed in main stream psychology; NLP practioners will immediately see parrallels with "future programming".. but for me that's what makes the book so powerful. Although the story's fiction, it's concepts aren't.

Read it with an open mind. Don't expect it to rock your world, just take one insight a day for nine days. You'll feel a whole lot better...

1.0 out of 5 stars Good ideas, but an awful writing style, 28 Mar 2002
By A Customer
I wish I had heeded the recommendations of those that wrote earlier reviews on this page! This book was recommended to me and whilst I found the contents interesting, the writing style was just awful! The characters were two-dimensional and the lead was totally unlikable (What did HE ever do to help anyone else but himself? He subsisted emotionally, physically and mentally on the other characters who were brough it like cardboard props at opportune moments. It was like reading a pap-philosophy one-man-show.), the "dialogue" read more like monologue with a couple "what do you mean by that?"s or "tell me more"s to keep up the pretense. I can't beleive such a poorly executed book can have been published! I was also somewhat taken aback by the number of "line-extensions" offered with this book. This book is interesting, not life-changing. I would not counsel anyone else to read this book unless you have a high tolerance for poor writing and have the reading age of a 10-year-old.
