Meet Jeff: overworked, underappreciated, and stuck granting 1,000 wishes for humanity before he can retire or get promoted—whichever comes first. Unfortunately, Jeff isn’t your typical genie. He’s a cosmic entity with an attitude problem, a hatred of paperwork, and a flair for granting wishes in the most inconvenient, ridiculous ways possible.

The Grimsby series follows the true to life path of oft beloved, and sometimes much maligned, Attorney at Law Grimsby as he navigates through the every day world of the law business in the United States on behalf of every day people whose issues and problems you will likely recognize.

There is also a love story along the way.

Winds of Change (and a whisper) is a collection of 20 short stories by Edward P.G.Field. The collection begins with a few tales, some satirical, responding to winds of change blowing through North America. Satire is not always amusing; but whether we laugh or wince, hopefully there is fresh perspective—a gentle whisper.

In a world that absolutely never happened… Former Prime Minister David Cameron leads a double life — and not the sensible sort involving spreadsheets. By day, he nods through meetings, tries not to break doors, and pretends to understand briefings. By night (and occasionally mid-press conference), he becomes Britain’s most unlikely superhero, battling exploding crumpets, villainous scarves, sentient paperwork, giant ducks, and a cat who is frankly far too magical for government work.

First published in 1912, The Unbearable Bassington stands as Saki’s most substantial venture into longer fiction, and perhaps his most poignant. Known primarily for his razor-edged short stories—where wit, mischief, and a certain cool cruelty dance in quick succession—Saki (H. H. Munro) brings those same gifts to this novel, but with a deeper, darker resonance.

Everyone wants to find a Velociraptor in their backyard until members of a dinosaur skull-worshipping cult show up. Ian Henry and his dog, Quiche, find themselves not only dealing with this aggravation, but also an underground lab filled with dinosaurs, an obnoxious conspiracy theorist, and an evil bipedal vegetable from outer space. With their new friend Claire Tiptree and a familiar cryptid named Amy, they will accidentally become part of a plan to save the world from becoming the plot to a ninety’s dinosaur movie not based in a park.

Right. So apparently this is a story about dragons. Not that I was asked, mind you. Some overenthusiastic writer with too much imagination and not enough sense opened a portal full of the blasted things, and now the world’s on fire.

Альтернативная история. Наши дни. Удивительное необъятное государство Ордусь, где государственный язык — китайский и в ходу изречения Конфуция; в его пределах неплохо уживаются, исповедуя свои религии и рассуждая о жизни на собственных наречиях, разнообразные народы. Они познакомились и стали друзьями, разыскивая наперсный крест святителя и великомученика Сысоя. Расследование, кроме прочего, завело Бага на борт парома «Святой Евлампий», который потерпел крушение из-за схватки, затеянной несколькими сомнительными личностями, причем далеко не все они попали в руки правосудия.

Filosofia, religione e la strada per la pace nel mondo. C'è un po' di tutto in questo spregiudicato romanzo di Marco Lugli. Sette domande per Dio è un viaggio esilarante dentro un Bed & Breakfast che diventa improvvisamente il centro dell'universo quando Dio si manifesta concretamente agli uomini e si dichiara disponibile a rispondere a sette loro domande, ma è anche una satira bruciante della società moderna strangolata dalle catene del politicamente corretto. «Vi concedo di farmi sette domande.
