  From his deathbed, Hero-King Inglis, the divine knight and master of all he surveys, gazes down on the empire he built with his mighty hand. Having devoted his life to statecraft and his subjects' well-being, his one unfulfilled wish is to live again, for himself this time: a warrior's life he'd devoted himself to before his rise to power. 
   
   
   
  His patron goddess, Alistia, hears his plea and smiles upon him, flinging his soul into the far future. Goddesses work in mysterious ways—not only is Inglis now the daughter of a minor noble family, but at her first coming-of-age ceremony at six, she's found ineligible to begin her knighthood! 
   
   
   
  However, for a lady of Inglis's ambition, this is less a setback and more the challenge she was (re)born to overcome. "It's not the blood that runs through your veins that makes a knight; it's the blood you shed on the battlefield!" The curtain rises on the legend of an extraordinary lady squire reborn to master the blade!

  Jimmy Goggles the God by H. G. Wells is a satirical short story blending humor and social critique. The tale follows three friends—Treherne, James, and Borker—who salvage a pearl diver’s suit, dubbing it “Jimmy Goggles.” During a yachting trip, Treherne dons the suit to explore a sunken ship but is mistaken for a deity by an island tribe. Revered as a god, he exploits his newfound status, demanding riches and obedience. However, his actions lead to unintended consequences, exposing the absurdity of colonial exploitation and blind worship. Wells uses sharp wit to critique imperialism, greed, and the clash of cultures, while exploring themes of identity and power. A blend of adventure and irony, Jimmy Goggles the God offers a thought-provoking yet entertaining commentary on human folly and societal dynamics.

  "The Chicago Druid and the Ugly Princess" is a story that moves from a time of Irish folklore to modern-day Chicago.It follows the adventures of Fionnuala, a beautiful princess transformed into the ugliest women imaginable by the druid Lochlain, before being sent into the future.In modern Chicago, she encounters madcap characters, such as the crafty Patience, who uses Fionnuala’s powers to make money gambling, and implicates them in gang warfare. She is hunted down by the magical characters from her past, who are searching for the mythological Salmon of Knowledge. In between she is also targeted by the police as a suspect in a terrorist case, and is on a mission to regain her former beauty by finding and receiving a kiss from her one true love.The tone moves from the seriousness of the prologue to something altogether quicker and more irreverent as the novel progresses, keeping the story modern and the reader interested. The mix of this mythological Irish background with contemporary American life is one of the novel’s strengths and provides many instances of humour and contrast.
