One for the history books

loved it. Makes me want to look into my own family history because we all have stories from wherever we came from.

Best book I've ever read!

I have read a lot of books in my life.. Some of them stand out as being exceptional. "The Journeys of Socrates" is the one book that stands above them all. Read "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior" first, also by Dan Millman, or at least watch the movie. It will give you context that you will appreciate when you read this one. Both are excellent books!

Life changer

This is my favorite book ever, but read it also because this version is slightly abridged

Fascinating!

Once I become accustomed to the Narrator's speaking style during the reading of this book, I found myself addicted to the story of Sergei. I hard a difficult time pausing to eat or sleep. I became hungry, hungry for more chapters, and hungry to hear what lie ahead. I felt as if I were traveling along with Sergei each and every step.
My only regret was that the story came to an end. How I wish I had a mentor like Sergei.

An outstanding book that moves the soul.

It's so true that life has many paths. This book embodies the path that matters most.
