    book: the dharma of star wars

    Hi fellows,

    Has anyone read this book? or heard anything about it? Does anyone have anything to say about the author, Matthew Bortolin?
    And while I'm at it, any good book tip is appreciated! About zen, life.. whatever.

    thanks

    Book suggestion:

    "A Tale for the time Being"


    A wonderful novel by Ruth Ozeki, a Buddhist priest and student of Norm Fischer, this book was short listed for both the Booker Award and the National Critics Circle Award. A very good read.
    enjoy!

      Hi.

      The Dharma of star wars book is good, and enjoyable, although i find it a bit shallow at times when the author could have gone deeper.

      As for booktips, here's our Treeleaf suggested booklist, and check out the nexus series. Which best can be descibed as an scifibook about the Buddhistrevolution... If your looking for more fictional "dharmabooks", i will add that when i get home, as that is where my books are..

      May the force be with you

        On hold at the local 'libarry'.

        Thanks for the heads-up!
