As a young man, I found Warrior of the Light to be truly amazing. It didn't present many new ideas, but delivered the same messages in a way that was extremely accessible for me. Coelho uses the setting of a warrior on his personal journey to share his lessons on life. While most spiritual messages seem to encourage suppression of male energy, Coelho uses the warrior archetype and taps into the primal spirit of man, telling us it is okay to let the warrior out. This really spoke to me and integrated two parts of myself that hadn't seen eye to eye. Obviously this book isn't for everyone, but for the right audience it is a grand-slam.

I read this soon after I was touched by The Alchemist.
First of all, I don't think we could make direct comparison with the Alchemist. The writing style is totally different. Those looking for an inspiring "story" like Alchemist will be disappointed. Rather, think of WotL as collection of a wise uncle/mentor advices. If you are familiar with Mahabharata, think of it like Bhagavad Gita episode of the epic, where Krishna passed down his wisdom to the doubting Arjuna.
Carl Jung suggested that there are universal "archetypes" that all mankind can relate to create meaning of their life. This is exactly how to read WotL: see yourself in the shoes of a "warrior" on the quest to his dream, plunge yourself in the archetype, then it will make sense. If you still put on that urban city slicker hat and look for instant enlightment, you won't get it. You should read Dr. Phil or Anthony Robbins instead.

My girlfriend was kind enough to introduce Coelho to me by giving me this particular book. It is a book of one page "lessons" and details a warrior of light code. There were passages in the book that resonate with me still because they affirm how I was living my life. Also, some answers to some of my deeper questions on life were given, and some subjects I have not had time to think about were introduced. I love this book, and would recommend it to anyone who needs a new perspective on going through this thing called life and doing so in an aware, awake manner.

My belief is this book is written for you to carry along with
your lap top or whatever. It can give you quick insight
into how you are responding to those you encounter.
After all it's all about your response.
It's perfect when you want to take a look at a situation and
just don't want dive deep into it. It can give you some quick
relief and understanding.
I recommend it for anyone on the go and needing a bit of inspiration and clarity.
