Download or read book Aladdin s Curse written by Marcus Pick and published by America Star Books. This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aladdin's Curse is a masterful and original work on the dark side of human nature. Pick takes us on an incredible journey as the lamp passes through time from the Stone Age to the Ice Age to Egypt to Greece to Rome to China to Japan and then eventually to America. It is in a nutshell a modern take on an old concept, the Djinni (Genie). The Djinni is inherently evil as it fulfills the wishes of those who get possession of his lamp, only the wishes do not always come out exactly as they are planned. Follow the series of subplots and short stories through time as they are all uniquely interconnected by the lamp and the Djinn within. It is filled with tragedy as little but no good comes to those who wish to personally gain from the Djinni's magic. Only three totally unselfish wishes can rid the world of this evil and it takes untold millennia to make it so. As the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for!
Download or read book The Last Wish written by Andrzej Sapkowski and published by Gollancz. This book was released on 2010-08-19 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geralt is a witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless assassin. Yet he is no ordinary murderer: his targets are the multifarious monsters and vile fiends that ravage the land and attack the innocent. He roams the country seeking assignments, but gradually comes to realise that while some of his quarry are unremittingly vile, vicious grotesques, others are the victims of sin, evil or simple naivety. One reviewer said: 'This book is a sheer delight. It is beautifully written, full of vitality and endlessly inventive: its format, with half a dozen episodes and intervening rest periods for both the hero and the reader, allows for a huge range of characters, scenarios and action. It's thought-provoking without being in the least dogmatic, witty without descending to farce and packed with sword fights without being derivative. The dialogue sparkles; characters morph almost imperceptibly from semi-cliche to completely original; nothing is as it first seems. Sapkowski succeeds in seamlessly welding familiar ideas, unique settings and delicious twists of originality: his Beauty wants to rip the throat out of a sensitive Beast; his Snow White seeks vengeance on all and sundry, his elves are embittered and vindictive. It's easily one of the best things I've read in ages.'

Download or read book The Djinn in the Nightingale s Eye written by A. S. Byatt and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magnificent title story of this collection of fairy tales for adults describes the strange and uncanny relationship between its extravagantly intelligent heroine--a world renowned scholar of the art of story-telling--and the marvelous being that lives in a mysterious bottle, found in a dusty shop in an Istanbul bazaar. As A.S. Byatt renders this relationship with a powerful combination of erudition and passion, she makes the interaction of the natural and the supernatural seem not only convincing, but inevitable. The companion stories in this collection each display different facets of Byatt's remarkable gift for enchantment. They range from fables of sexual obsession to allegories of political tragedy; they draw us into narratives that are as mesmerizing as dreams and as bracing as philosophical meditations; and they all us to inhabit an imaginative universe astonishing in the precision of its detail, its intellectual consistency, and its splendor. "A dreamy treat.... It is not merely strange, it is wondrous." --Boston Globe "Alternatingly erudite and earthy, direct and playful.... If Scheherazade ever needs a break, Byatt can step in, indefinitely." --Chicago Tribune "Byatt's writing is crystalline and splendidly imaginative.... These [are] perfectly formed tales." --Washington Post Book World
