About this listen

 The enchanting, true story of The Valkyries begins in Rio de Janeiro when author Paulo Coelho gives his mysterious master, J., the only manuscript for his book The Alchemist. Haunted by a devastating curse, Coelho confesses to J., "I've seen my dreams fall apart just when I seemed about to achieve them." In response, J. gives Coelho a daunting task: He must find and speak with his guardian angel. "The curse can be broken," he replies, "if you complete the task."

Rising to the challenge, Paulo and his wife, Cristina, drop everything, pack their bags, and take off on a 40-day adventure into the starkly beautiful and sometimes dangerous Mojave Desert - where they encounter more than they bargained for.

A masterful blend of the exotic locales, dramatic adventure, and magical storytelling, for which Coelho's fictional works are renowned, this true-life account is at once a modern-day adventure and a metaphysical odyssey.

Critic Reviews

"Coelho's gripping tale of his adventures...reads like a suspense novel." ( San Mateo Times)

Larger than life; but that's how life ought to be

Pearls of wisdom from the author stand out the most. With every book of Paulo Coelho I read, I can't help but admire and be in awe of the richness of his life, the rarest of the rare experiences he has been bestowed with. Paulo himself is a miracle

Different Experience

This is totally a different concept from Coelho. I enjoyed it because I am a spiritual path. Although I don’t believe in anything and consider them as fiction, it was a good listening experience
