27. The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho
This is a short book, but I would recommend it as a very spiritual work. Coelho outlines the narrative of a shepherd boy who dreams of finding treasure in the distant Pyramids.
It is very distinctive in differing between manners of work in faith. A merchant who sets a destination (Mecca) with no intent on reaching it, but using it as inspiration to do his work. An Englishman (a scientist) looking into Alchemy. An alchemist/shaman who lives off of the desert land. A self-sacrificing monk. And a group of nomads guarding a desert spring.
It has such concepts as: Personal Legend (or the story of your life), True Love (which is love that does not interfere in each person's Personal Legend), Nature communion/spirituality (Heart of the World), etc.
Lawtan: A chaotic dragoness with issues.
