Title: A masterful writer misses the mark
Review: Coelho has inspired a generation of seekers, with his unique brand of new age spirituality, criticism of the mainstream, and engaging down-to-earth characterization. I am a great fan of his work. Thus, I was looking forward to reading the "witch..." However, was disappointed with the rehash of previous themes, and ultimately, with a novel that almost bored me to tears! There is little new or original in this work, and I would suggest that readers new to the work of coelho start with the alchemist, veronika decides to die, by the river piedra...etc.
