Paulo Coelho

I stumbled over one of his books in my favorite little stationary shop in Fahaheel some time last year.
I didn’t know what to expect, have been away from Bestseller lists for too long to know that there’s a big hubub about him and his books.
The Alchemist was my first one and after that I was hopelessly hooked.
Not sure he’s a good read for everyone, but I’m sure that everyone can find something for his own Life in those books.
Anyhow, here’s a little collection
You can also visit his website and his blog.
There he offers free ebooks and on Pirate Coelho you will find links to those ebooks in other languages than english.
Have fun
P.S.: There’s a neat little tool called kindle to read e-books and such. Has anyone tried that yet?
Wish you well

I just finished this book.
Awesome!
It made me laugh, it made me cry and it made me read it in a bit over three days.
If you are used to Baldacci’s work like the Camel Club and The Collectors you might be surprised. The beginning is a bit odd, but necessary for the Rest of the story.
A must for people that dream of living on a lonely farm, that’s for sure

Palast der Winde -- von M.M. Kayes

I just finished a book in German.
It’s called “Palast der Winde” von M.M. Kayes, ISBN 3-596-28119-9
Here’s the English version:
“It’s about a British boy that got raised the first 11 years in his Life by an Indian woman, but finally got back to his “roots", got educated in Britain and went back to the British military in India.
He never really felt like he belongs to any of the two races and that’s the main reason why a lot of stuff develops in his Life like it does.”
I actually liked the book a lot. I never read anything about India before and never had a closer look on Indian history.
It is a Novel, but the details in History are not Fantasy.
It gets a * out of 5 from me. From first to last page a good, capturing read.
