Right now I'm re-reading "The Method of No-Method: The Chan Practice of Silent Illumination" by Sheng Yen. Excellent read. Master Sheng Yen is a bit more traditionalist than me, but he covers a lot of material. :)

I'm reading the Courtlight Series. It's available on Amazon, and it's really nice.

Just finished The Alchemist. Read it in two nights. Have to say it was one of the greatest fiction books I've ever read. It's unlike most others; the author never flushes anything out in detail. The story is very simple, written like a child's fable. But it's such a wonderful story with many elements that could be applied to Jediism.

Is it the Paulo Coelho one? The translator saved the job, since the English version is better than the Portuguese one, with the absurd quantity of grammar mistakes he commits.

I'm reading " The English and Their History" by Robert Tombs. An excellent read that offers a new perspective on things.

I'm re-reading Star Wars: Traitor (for the umpteenth time), and occasionally re-examining The Little Zen Companion.

Right now I'm re-reading "The Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett. May be one of my favorite books, and it's almost a thousand pages - which is awesome!

Garth Risk Hallberg's writing style reminds me of Jonathan Franzen. Characters are thoroughly, uncomfortably developed. Haven't gotten too far into it but I like it already.
