Daves Best
of the Best list of Astrology Books
(Not our complete catalogue, just the best parts of it.)
I've often been asked for a list of my favorite astrology books, the ones I thought best. For years I resisted as I did not want to slight all the other
authors of all the other books. Also, I didn't think my personal biases should get any more attention than they already do. But we live in a world
that is graded (good - better - best) & those who make the rankings take it upon themselves, for better or worse. All of these books are in print and
in stock. Be forewarned: These are demanding books.

blurbs, price & other purchase information. Here are the best of the best:
