Not really no; it's been in the thousands.
If your more interested in specifically those on the subject of the 'inter life' - then I can do. What subjects are you interested in?
Of all the ones I've read - I'd suggest as being very good -
Journey of Souls - By Michael Newton.
The Wisdom of the Soul & Big book of the Soul - By Ian Lawton.
Exploring the Eternal Soul - By Andy Tomlinson.
Three Waves of Volunteers & the new Earth - By Dolores Cannon.
You can Google/look on Amazon for the names of the other authors I mentioned.
A recent book as well that I read recently that I enjoyed a lot; that sums up a lot of areas - is 'The return of the perennial philosophy' - By John Holman.
See what you think of them; will lead to all kinds of other books areas if your interested. Hope that helps.

Of everything I've read & looked into, I've personally been most drawn to the past life/inter life stuff, & found it most helpful & interesting. It has made more sense to me than anything.
We are of course all unique & different. My friend has always been very drawn to Alice Bailey, Blavatsky & other esotericism, & isn't particularly interested in the former.
It seems to be a case of finding what we're drawn to & what resonates with us as individuals. Good reading, hope you enjoy the books.

Fresco... My favorite descriptive book about astral plane experiences and beyond is William Buhlman's "Adventures Beyond the Body". It's available in paperback and as a free pdf at: http://api.ning.com/files/nTSdV*CY*ywIHIm4D8CbwwHEN7RF9bXkD6C3pIfU-eo_/Adventures_Beyond_the_Body.pdf
As for images of the astral planes, there's a lot of variety in what people see there since it's an interactive environment and your mind set has a good deal to do with it.
