What's some good/readable fiction about ninjas/assassins/thieves? I say readable because I've read the Night Angel trilogy and it wasn't particularly good, but it was entertaining.

I've already seen the 1992 motion picture masterpiece Aladdin and have the Criterion Collection release of it, how much does it add to that?

Have you read Naruto? Heard the novel got some graphics in it. You should check that out

He's lying about 1001 nights. Burton translation will do so much more for you than the Arabic recension, and you probably want the Kolkata recension if you want more material.

Journey to the West/Monkey. It's about being pissed off about translation accessibility too.

Ninja by Eric Lustbader

Shibumi by Trevanian.
