Wow.......
There are 77 books in that list. The list seems nice, but there are several that are typically reccomended for Orthodox study that have seemingly been ommited. If you can get someone to read 77 boks about any subject, I would say they are long past being considered a "convert"

In any case, Thanks for the list

This list is nice but it lacks books by the ain orthodox theologian in the past century : Saint Justin of Celije and Father Florovsky... I think thez are worth reading, more than Father Hopko...
