Good theology textbooks?

[joanofarc143130]

Does anyone know of some good Catholic intro-theology books, perhaps ones used in university theology programs? I’m reading the Catechism right now and there’s so much I want to explore in greater depth – the Trinity, sacraments, saints, morality, etc. I need to know what’s worth my time to actually read. Thanks!

The Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma by Ludwig Ott.

It is a very easy to use text and gives detail if you want it, but doesn’t force you to read the detail if you don’t. It is used by the Notre Dame Graduate School of Christendom College (very orthodox) for the Intro to Doctrine course.

These are technically high school texts, not college texts, but the *Didache *series is excellent.
