Book Review of The Fifth by Mario Kiefer
"The Fifth by Mario Kiefer offers a frightening look at the end of the world, with a dark re-telling of the well-known story of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The book follows the Four Horsemen, Pestilence, War, Famine and Death, as they work together across time and space to bring devastation into people’s lives in alignment with their Father's grand plan. Yet, to effectuate The End of Days, Kiefer introduces The Fifth as a new, unique twist. The overall plot line is original and compelling from the start with Kiefer’s writing as descriptive, articulate and well-paced as ever. The characters have been well developed and bring interest and complexity to the story—a feature that sets this book apart from others in its genre. The book offers new perspectives on the grim and dire aspects of humanity today, showing both the strengths and weaknesses of society as a whole. Readers interested in history, politics, current events, and a new perspective on society, this book is for you." – Review by Book Excellence (www.bookexcellence.com)
