Resumen del Editor

What would you do if you lost everything - your job, your home, and the love of your life - all at the same time? When it happens to Seattle ad executive Alan Christoffersen, he's tempted by his darkest thoughts. A bottle of pills in his hand and nothing left to live for, he plans to end his misery. Instead, he decides to take a walk. But not any ordinary walk. Taking with him only the barest of essentials, Al leaves behind all that he's known and heads for the farthest point on his map: Key West, Florida. The people he encounters along the way, and the lessons they share with him, will save his life and inspire yours.

Richard Paul Evans' extraordinary New York Times best sellers have made him one of the worlds most beloved storytellers. A life-changing journey, both physical and spiritual, The Walk is the first of an unforgettable series of books about one man's search for hope.

Quite Enjoyable!

Honestly, I had no idea this was the first book in a series. When I finished listening, I was disappointed that the "Walk" had barely started, but the story had taken a turn, and it really did wrap things up nicely. When searching for other books by Richard Paul Evans, I discovered this was Book 1 of 5!! I was very happy, because I was really enjoying the journey. I am currently finishing up Book 2, and have just purchased Book 3. I think that is probably the best recommendation there is! That, and talking about it with others--Done!!

beautiful

I listened to this as an audible book while I worked on diamond painting. this series was one of my mothers favorites and she really loved this author. after listening I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series. I think of my mom as I listen and think that she is listening with me. beautiful story with many life lessons intertwined!

Amazing!

This book was thought provoking and hard to put down. I wish it had been longer!

Hopeful

This is the first audiobook it have listened to. An amazing experience, it touches my soul. A blessing. Thank you

EXCELLENT!

I have read this series three times now and continue to get more out of it each time. Truly a message of hope along all our paths, no matter how different they might be - and yet we all “sojourn and search for the meaning and hope in a vast, mysterious world.”

This book has saved lives and brought hope to both the dying and the living. Life is worth living. Read this series to find a hopeful reason why.

One Man's Journey

Would you consider the audio edition of The Walk to be better than the print version?

I do. I think it makes the main character seem more real.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Walk?

I don't know that there was a most memorable. The whole story is important - even the little things that didn't seem important at the time become an important part of the journey.

What does Richard Paul Evans bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The gentleness in his voice and the desire to persevere.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

When one is lost, there are unexpected ways to be found.

Any additional comments?

I love this and am so excited that there are more books in the series. I am excited to see the growth of the character. He seems real to me and makes me want to find that growth in my personal life as well.

Inspiring

Through the difficulties of life I have experienced it is refreshing to read a story about One who experiencedstruggles that end in triumph. This book is not a story about an easy trouble for your life, what about a life that grew and wisdom and hope and ended in understanding and fulfillment.
