About this listen
This book will rock your beliefs about fear, security, and taking risks.
In Movement There Is Peace is a powerful tale of travel, adventure, and unexpected faith. It begins with a doctor who walks away from her practice in order to cure her own paralyzing anxiety. Once free, she discovers that leaving is really only fleeing if there's no new direction. Could this be the reason for her husband's sudden inspiration?
"I want us to walk the Camino de Santiago; it's an 800-kilometer pilgrimage across Spain."
After deliberating the wisdom of walking 500 miles with no planning or physical conditioning and little religious faith, the two set off to walk the "Way of Saint James". Their "no-plan" plan sets off a series of extraordinary events that can only be explained as divine intervention. It starts with an enigmatic suggestion from a former pilgrim who sends them off with a caution: "There are no coincidences on the Camino."
The tale itself is a funny, fascinating pilgrim's progress seeded by unique characters and full of amazing surprises. Follow along the pilgrim's path as it shares its secrets on how to:
- Create a life that's unafraid of death
- Experience emotional lightness by carrying a smaller physical load
- Journey without plans, and have more fun doing it
- Make a leap of faith, and land closer to paradise
If you've ever doubted yourself or your abilities, listen to this book. "Lose the fear...live the life!"

Good story but...
I enjoyed the story well enough but I found the female narrator spoilt my full enjoyment. From her atrocious accents to her truly irritating downspeak, I cringed at many a sentence. The journey was well enough described but did not inspire me at all - despite the fact I have a friend about to embark on this epic journey and I had considered joining her.

Hard work
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Nothing. It was doomed from the start. How walking anywhere in Europe can be made so boring beats me.
What was most disappointing about Elaine Orabona Foster, PhD and Joseph Wilbred Foster III ’s story?
Ten percent Camino-- that was the good bit. Ninety percent self analysing her own strange fears and then having the nerve to try to fix other peoples problems.
The sort of person I stay well clear of when travelling/walking.
It was boring and uncomfortable and I think her husband deserved a medal, though he gradually became a bit the same as his wife, unfortunately.
How could the performance have been better?
The female voice was depressing and stressed, though I suppose it suited the depressing character she was portraying.
The Australian accents were dreadful, and no, not every Australian speaks like Steve Irwin, just like most Americans don't speak like Forest Gump!
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment, and occasionally anger that such a wonderful experience ( for most people) can be reduced to this. I suggest the authors do the Camino again, don't take notes, don't write a book, and just try to enjoy the walk.
Any additional comments?
I really struggled to get to the end, and derived no pleasure or personal enlightenment or benefit from this book.
