A middle-aged man working a dead end job is offered a chance to learn another way to live. The lines of reality become blurred as fears are stripped away. ( ) Gives thought to those searching within for answers to life. Interesting presentation with a good story line. Wide use of symbols. I enjoyed the book and gave thought to the many underlying messages that could be personalized. I recommend this book as a good read and tool for thought as we make our own quest through life. WOW!!! I was pulled into this story from the first page and it did not let me go. Jacob Nordby tells a great story but also weaves a bit of his own personal self discovery into the tale that makes the reader take a step back and take a good hard look at themselves, and what their own true desires may be in life. It is a beautifully written book that I simply could not put down. This is one book that you should add to your collection, read it now, then re-read it again once a year. **I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a review. I was not required to write a positive review, only an honest one.** ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
excerpt from page 299 "...burn this book!" Why would author, Jacob Nordby, ask you to read his new novel, then burn it?This is no ordinary book.Fact and fiction weave together in this autobiographical tale of spiritual awakening. The main character is a burned-out businessman who takes an unplanned retreat to his cabin in the mountains of Idaho.On the first evening of his getaway, a mysterious stranger appears beside his campfire and delivers a summons:"Drop everything and attend a rendezvous of destiny...the fate of the world may depend upon it." He is confronted with a terrifying choice: believe this stranger and take a journey into the unknown, or ignore the whole thing and perhaps miss his call of destiny?Mystical and deeply personal to the author, this story is rich with symbolism but framed in modern language.Join the main character on an adventure of the spirit. With him, you will meet a cast of divine helpers, shaman monks and ragged teachers who will captivate your imagination.Like the hero in this tale of awakening, you may never see life the same way again. Rich with insights, quotations and teachings of sources ranging from ancient to modern, this book is a breath of fresh air for the soul. No library descriptions found. |
