Rambam, Mishneh Torah
To me they sound like something out of a fantasy novel - great and esoteric works of half-forgotten knowledge and lore. I'm particularly fond of the "Book of Encounters." Taken out of context, it's wonderous.
at first i thought it was mishnayot.. but then i noticed the order, and a few sefarim peculiar to the rambam..
it does sound really arcane and musty.. alas, with torah the demands that fall upon you from learning it never let you experience it in a pure gandaulfian way..
also makes me wonder how much i over-simplify other people's ancient culture.. ie: the upanishads were fun because it was like a cross between reading tolkein and learning midrash..
Some day, the ancient Spyrits of Olde, who dwell in the 5th heaven, under the foundation stone of the Kise haKavod, will reveal the 15th book of the ancient Alchemist, the Mad Arab Maimonides-- the BOOK OF STU
As opposed to the Book of Stew, which is the medievel sisterhood cookbook.
