Paranoid, wilful, lazy, the young Adolf Hitler turns up in Liverpool to stay with his brother Alois and sister-in-law Bridget.

Surely this is a young man who will never amount to anything.

Es ist dunkel in Leipzig. Alles schläft. Alles? Nein. Ein Kind leistet erbittert Widerstand. Der Vater, dem Autor nicht ganz unähnlich, zieht das letzte Register: eine Spazierfahrt mit dem Buggy. Mit ungewissem Ausgang und nicht vorhersehbarer Dauer. Wie die Odyssee. In klein. Und ohne Schiff. Dafür mit Sirenen. Ein Hörbuch für alle, die Kinder haben. Oder auf keinen Fall welche wollen.

Spreadsheets are spells. Dragons are unionized. Nachos are a sacrament. Buckle up. When actuary Ptolemy “Tolly” Blackthorne inherits his grandmother’s scarf—a knitted, contraband probability anchor—he also inherits her secret: a multi-dimensional dragon-racing circuit that runs on risk, wit, and a frankly alarming amount of nacho cheese. Tolly’s talent for modeling disaster was supposed to keep him safe; instead it drafts him into a portal-hopping season where vertical Niagara roars upward, magma judges enforce “Fun is mandatory,” and Mars rovers form a picket line for better dental.

In a realm ruled by idiots, their only hope is the Fool. You’d think an army of zombie trolls and undead ogres would catch the nobility’s attention. You’d be wrong.

With war looming, a goblin latrine slave named Shelly resolves to save Castle Halfsock from itself. He must take on many roles… jester, detective, spy, and political fixer.

Un rocambolesco viaggio in una Cinquecento azzurro pastello tra Torino e... Dublino. Alla guida un'agorafobica pronta a giocarsi il tutto e per tutto contro le sue paure (e le sue manie ossessivo-compulsive, e i suoi titanici attacchi di panico), nel tentativo di salvare se stessa o un aspirante suicida che ha conosciuto su un blog. Un tragi-comico flusso di coscienza dal ritmo incalzante, narrato con autoironia e sarcasmo, in cui profonde meditazioni e grottesche vicende si fondono con momenti di autoanalisi, allucinazioni e "lucida" follia.

The famed—some would say notorious—author of Trainspotting and many other brilliant offenses against common literary decency comes at last to America, with a dark and twisted tale of personal training and abject codependency in the fading glitter of Miami's South Beach, with a novel that...

“Banned by 1000 Churches!” And yes, Kingdom's Con Men would indeed be banned if some people had their way. But it's nothing to be afraid of, confused about, angry or offended over. Kingdom’s Con Men strives to be thought-provoking, that’s all.

In the process, it offers a satirical overview of the current evangelical landscape.

How Did It All Happen? follows a tiny celestial ops team in a glass room above Earth. Flo manages the rollout, Callisto guards her conscience, Anthrax spins the brand, and Dave lives inside the dashboard. Their job is simple in theory, optimize belief.

Somewhere between the chessboard in the prison yard and the sterile absurdity of the courtroom, Senya realizes he is not just fighting for freedom, but stumbling through a theater of cruelty where the script has already been written.
