Yes...

Ethiopic deals with the History of Ge'ez, its roots, and relatively hidden meanings. It totally debunks the theory of a Sabean origin and does a good job at proving an indigenous African origin, on top of that it shows that Ge'ez and its predecessor (Ayele calls it) pre-Ethiopic script is perhaps the father of all writing systems. Ayele goes on to show the astrological, pictographical, and numerical importance of Ge'ez as well, and really takes the language's importance to a whole other level, it was deep, I could go on, but I'd rather let Ones do thier reading for themselves. Very worth while though.
