Seeking Book Recommendations

[bloodravyn084]

Greetings!

What are some books, both fiction and non-fiction, that you would recommend for someone who is a student of the dark side, especially the ways of the Sith? Thank you.

I am afraid that you are going to have to elaborate, as your question is too broad.


Are you asking about religion, weapons, technology, or martial arts?

[bloodravyn084]

Greetings!

I guess I was seeking a general overall recommended reading list. Know what I mean. Books on whatever subject-philosophy, religion, martial arts, history, weaponry, etc.-that would most aid a Sith in his journey on the dark side. Hope that clears up what I'm looking for. Thank you.

All of my answers are going to be for real life sith, that said...


for general philosphy, I think I started with the satanic bible by anton lavey.

I would also recommend the Knife fighting, a practical course, by Michael D. Janich.

the Knife Fighting encyclopedia, and military knife combat both by W Hock Hochheim

The tactical riife, the tactical pistol, the tactical shotgun, from Gabriel Suarez.

The poisoners Handbook - Maxwell Hutchkinson.


As far as technology goes, I do not have a book to recommend, but I do have a
website.... www.radioreference.com. You can look up radio frequncies all over the
world. If you purchase a scanner, when you program it, you will be able to tune in local police
as well as local governemt, your neighbors, etc.

Dont forget to stay in school and pay attention to your science classes! chemistry and physics have almost infinate application.

that should get you started.

Thanks for the book recommendations that I've been given. I appreciate the suggestions. Many of them I've heard of, but some I hadn't as of yet. I plan on looking those all up. I definitely have a lot of reading to do. I think those are some worthwhile and interesting resources.

Dale Carnegie, if I recall.

Add this book: NOCTURNAL WITCHCRAFT by Konstantinos. I am just in the middle of reading it now. My roommate had read it, and I am finally getting around to it. There is a Sithliness to it. It also explains why Dark does not necessarily = evil (Master Thompson, this is a book for you!) Who here has read this one?

[Azazel]

Not me.
Thanks for the name of the author of the book i adviced

[Lord Cassus]

If u are interesting in big-time manipulations, read the book "Shogun" right now i dont remember the name of the author but the book kicks ass!

James Clavell. Damned good book, I read it in 6th grade. but the sequels sucked.

[Lord Cassus]

its got a sequel? hmm that dosent sound too good since i think they finished everything of in the first one

Well not quite. The next book is called Noble house, which makes vague references to shogun.

I pretty much stopped reading after I started the 3rd book, because I began to realize he was using a formula. the books became too predicatable.


But, by all means, read Noble House!!

It does not center on Japan, but does center on establishing the British colony Hong Kong.
