"Les faits merveilleux ou surnaturels ne sont pas aussi rares qu'on le croit ; il faudrait plutôt dire qu'ils se produisent sans ordre." Ainsi commence "La femme changée en renard", publié au début des années 1920, et qui révéla David Garnett, écrivain proche du groupe de Bloomsbury animé par Virginia Woolf. Roman fantastique, conte ou fable, ce récit qui conjugue l'humour et la fantaisie est également empreint de gravité, voire de cruauté.

Don't believe everything the characters tell you. Recommended for fans of John Crowley, Paul Park, and Michael Swanwick.

We live in trying times. Anti-demon sentiment is at an all time high. Gone are the days when devils could get together on a Sunday night to sacrifice some virgins and crack open a few cold ones. While we have been shunned and despised since our first ancestors arrived here from Hell, today it’s impossible to walk even a single city block without running into a self-proclaimed “hunter.” Living under this threat of constant danger, it has never been more pertinent to hold on to our sense of identity. And more importantly, to pass that along to our spawn.

Alliston Hayes loved three things: getting married, hats, and the late Jac Jarger. So when she got the chance to combine the three with the help of a demon-possessed cat and an ancient book, how could she pass it up? And how could she know that her enthusiasm would result in "The Incident"?

This is a tale with a twist. Unlike what you would hear in other fantasy series, where there's a despotic madman in need of overthrowing where the story follows a group of plucky underdogs, this is a tale focusing on said aforementioned despot as he goes about his business with the express intent of getting a group of plucky rebels to overthrow him. Because what's worse than absolute power? Absolute responsibility.

Un homme qui a perdu ses papiers à la suite d'un banal quiproquo, enquête pour retrouver son identité, avant de se résigner à devenir quelqu'un d'autre. Ce romain court ou cette longue nouvelle, qui commence devant un salon de toilettage pour finir dans un terrain vague, est avant tout une réflexion humoristique sur la fragilité de la notion de personne, et sur l'absurdité de l'existence.

Twisty scares with heart. Ghosts, sea monsters, and a rest home for troublesome witches all feature in this collection of paranormal stories set in Wellington, New Zealand. By turns spooky and laugh-out-loud funny, these tales stew with malevolence and mischief. Climb aboard the ghost bus for a wild ride of sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and humor, and hop off a little more in love with Aotearoa's capital city.

Un androide entra in chiesa e si scatena il pandemonio. Soprattutto quando chiede ad un giovane prete di potergli confessare i propri peccati, ricevere l’assoluzione ed infine il sacramento della comunione. Il giovane prete è disponibile a prendere in considerazione l’idea, ma il suo superiore reagisce indignato. Decidono allora (o forse qualcuno li spinge verso questa decisione) di organizzare un incontro con il vescovo e anche con un cardinale. A questa strana riunione si unisce l’inventore della tecnologia e, per non escludere nessuno, anche un rabbino.

This original short story asks the question, "If eternal life came at the expense of love, would you choose death?"

The TGSPGoSSP is a bit of a comedic acting troupe. Their 2-Part Trilogy mocks our beloved niches in genre fiction. All three books take the usual shots at the usual suspects, both fantasy and sci-fi. If you like dark, deadpan humor and satire such as Monty Python, this title might be your cup of tea.

This is the second novella in the series Donald Trump: Necromancer. It is a work of political parody and therefore protected by the first amendment.
