Critic reviews

"As narrator as well as author, [Millman] has ample skill and showmanship." ( AudioFile)

Short but as long as it needed to be

Would you listen to Way of the Peaceful Warrior again? Why?

Yes, because I think there's a depth to it you may not catch the first time.

Have you listened to any of Dan Millman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No but I read Spirit Laws

Any additional comments?

I understand why he would want to read his own work, another narrator may have been a better choice.

Damn...

this magical story speaks of all the things that we already know. A poetic exploration of the now, and the present.

Wonderful illuminating read

I love this book and the lessons it teaches. Incredibly valuable insight and tools to live an awake, present and happy life.

It flows like water

easy to listen. The story behind the teachings makes the lessons stronger and effective.
Very well narrated and super powerful learnings.
