Eban73 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I've got three books in mind that I plan on buying as soon I have the funds. Moral Combat by Sikivu Hutchinson The Bible of The Adversary by Michael W. Ford The Baphomet Codex by Ego Diabolus Another one I plan on getting is Tarot Talismans. It sounds interesting. The best part is most of these books are actually quite cheap, so hopefully I can have them by the beginning of the new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentLoner Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I just finished reading "Mrs Kennedy and Me" by Clint Hill. Good read. As for the future, it'll be a bunch of books for my classes next semester, mostly focusing on terrorism, intelligence (for my thesis) and other regional security issues. The only one I've bought so far is Cold Terror and it looks pretty interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♦ Fuego ♦ Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 "Ensouling Language" by Stephen Harrod Buhner. So far it is the best book I've ever read about how to connect with the audience when writing non-fiction. The first draft of my book was pretty dry, and given the subject (my deconversion) that was disturbing. It should connect with the reader's emotions, and I think this book I'm reading will help me in the next draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
