James Ishmael Ford: Zen Master Who?: A Guide to the People and Stories of Zen
Middle section reminds me of Genesis (begat, begat, begat) but the best up-to-date (2001) explanation of how all those Zennies got here. (****)
Soko Morinaga: Novice to Master: An Ongoing Lesson in the Extent of My Own Stupidity
Delightful book about a Zen master's progression. (*****)
Linda Greenlaw: The Hungry Ocean: A Swordboat Captain's Journey
Nuts and bolts of swordfishing from the world's only female captain. More fish than polemic. (***)
Natalie Goldberg: Writing Down the Bones: Freeing the Writer Within
Best book on interior of writing I've read in quite some time. Great advice for we the writing afflicted. (*****)
Jim Butcher: Summer Knight (The Dresden Files, Book 4)
More characters to keep track of than a Russian novel, but still lots of action. (****)
Bernard Glassman: Instructions to the Cook: A Zen Master's Lessons in Living a Life That Matters
Even better the second time - thanks, Kate! (*****)
Brian Herbert: Sandworms of Dune
After thousands of pages, I don't even want to think about whether reading the whole series was worth it or not. (**)
Brian Herbert: Hunters of Dune
It's almost over! It's going to be a huge relief. (**)
