Jack Valentine seemed to have it all. He made good money as an ad man and looked good doing it. He had a hot apartment, cool friends, even a slick car - at least until the hectic Monday morning a truck smashed into it, sending the critically injured Jack to the hospital. Everything happens for a reason, though, and Jack’s reason reveals itself in the silver-haired cancer patient who becomes his roommate one evening. The elderly man, Cal, shares his life story - one not dissimilar to Jack’s - of material wealth masking a gaping hole within.

Audio equivalent of 'The Secret'
Visualise, Set Goals, Be Disciplined, Set a Timeframe ..... basic advice, but wrapped in a ridiculous story line peppered with wild and inaccurate assertions so that you can become a 'fully actualised person'.

Disappointing
From the reviews I was hopeful this may be a good follow on from Eckhart Tolles “ the power of Now” and “ A New Earth”How wrong I was. If this is you first book on spiritual development then you may find it enlightening . I’m afraid I found completely unconvincing and badly written.

Drivel
This is dreadful. I am not going to manage past chapter 4 - I've had it. This book is a tired old rehash of every basic, pseudo-Buddhist, 'The Secret' - type enlightenment manual ever written but with no new insights, no revellations, not even a new way of telling the same old story...in fact it assumes the reader has absolutely no knowledge of anything vaguely related to it and treats the subject as if it's something completely new, divulged only in this book.
The supposed meeting with a 'secret' clan of holy sages in Nepal who hold all the answers to life and are just waiting for some random traveller to find them so that they can immediately impart their sacred knowledge (in English, naturally) is cringingly painful.
I can only assume it's been written for children. It makes Harry Potter sound like Dickens.
Seriously, give us a break. Anyone buying such a book is unlikely to be a complete moron?
I tried just having this on in the background while getting on with other things in the hope it might have a redeeming feature. Sadly not.

Honestly... it's ok...
It has some interesting concepts that I would say serve more as reminders than new concepts.
The story doesn't really offer anything new either. The dialog between the main characters is almost laughable at times because it feels like the author is trying to hard to make the monk sound sage but it comes off as a little tacky.
3 stars because there were some interesting take-aways but unfortunately nothing new. I felt like I've heard different versions of this story hundreds of times. Unhappy rich man goes on a spiritual journey to seek enlightenment, discovers he had it within him the whole time if only he had changed his perspective, goes on to share the knowledge. Which I think is a good story but I felt like this book was very surface level in it's delivery.
Entertaining at times but not something that I would strongly recommend.

Some good points...but
I didnt learn anything that I didnt already know and it appears to me that the author was repeating himself over and over again. I try very hard to give a book a chance and I did make it through the book , however it was tedious. I also enjoy listening to my audiobooks on faster speeds and I could not enjoy the performance of this book. The speaker's accent was distracting to me. no matter what speed I adjusted it to. Sorry just not my cup of tea but maybe you will have a better experience from it than I did.

So right and yet so wrong
So much wisdom but in the end so misdirected. Poor Julian, he sold his Ferrari, and learned a great deal but he missed the last and greatest lesson. He misunderstood the monks. He came away from the monastery believing he should “heal the world” but observe the reality of the monastery and the lives of the monks. Do they spend their lives trying to make the world better or do they spend their lives isolating themselves from the corrupt beliefs of the outside world, protecting their own souls so that they have the possibility to make themselves better? They never venture outside, and they never invite outsiders in, so either Julian misunderstood, or the monks are living a lie. The answer is obvious, Julian missed the biggest lesson of all. As Ayn Rand so eloquently put it, “I shall live for no man, and ask no man to live for me.”
Was it all one big joke? Were the monks extracting their revenge on Julian for his uninvited intrusion? They were “enlightened,” so it is not possible that they did not see the incongruity of the charter they gave Julian. Learn to know yourself; now live the ultimate lie by believing that you must become a sacrificial lamb to the corruption of the world. Like Lucy, they convinced Julian they were sincere, only to pull the football at the very end.
That said, the book is worth reading and there are many lessons to be learned, but please, please, please, rip out chapter 12, and forget rule 6. “Live to give.” “The most noble thing you can do is give to others.” This is the most corrupt philosophy that has ever been espoused. Do not allow yourself to be seduced by this ultimate corruption; to believe that you live for others.

This amazing Life lesson, this book teaches. And with Humphrey Bowers reading this book he make you feel like you are in the conversation with the characters of the Fable.
Not my first audiobook off Humphrey. But this is first time listening of Robin Shama book and I look forward listening more of he's books.
