  In a former life, Jack was gifted, meaning he possessed peculiar abilities. If rich folks found themselves in a jam, Jack could use his talents to get them out of it. Where others were sure to fail, Jack's aristocratic clientele could always count on him to finish jobs cleanly, efficiently, and leave no trace, for which his services commanded a hefty fee. 
   
   
   
  But one day, Jack picked a fight with the wrong man and his old life came to an end. But, as it turned out, his story was far from over. 
   
   
   
  A mysterious supernatural being whisked Jack's consciousness away and into the body of a young nobleman living in a different world in the multiverse—a magical one. 
   
   
   
  In it, he must play the part of Max Renard, illegitimate son of a traitor who was recently executed on orders from the king, which caused Max to lose his home and be forced to dwell in a small town on the western outskirts of the kingdom. 
   
   
   
  And now this new life—his last life—is the one he must lead . . .

  Dansurile Ielelor - cutumele...

  În fiecare vară, în pădurea de lângă sat, se întâmplă ceva ce oamenii mari preferă să nu discute la lumina zilei. Ielele – acele făpturi fermecătoare, capricioase și complet imprevizibile – își încep dansurile, iar copiii satului, care n-au apucat încă să învețe frica, dau buzna să le vadă. Într-o poiană ascunsă, cei mici sunt atrași de o muzică nepământeană și devin martorii unor dansuri ireal de frumoase. 
  Cei încă mici se întorc acasă juliti, obosiți și convinși că de data asta chiar au scăpat ieftin. Dar ielele nu sunt simple personaje de poveste: au regulile lor, ritmul lor, și un umor… să zicem „discutabil”.An de an, la cincizeci de zile după Paști, ritualul se repetă, iar lumea satului se umple de povești, temeri și întâmplări greu de explicat. 
  Dintre toți, Ana – o fetiță prea curajoasă pentru vârsta ei – descoperă că magia nu vine întotdeauna cu sclipici și cântece de basm. Uneori vine cu tropăit, pulberi de lună, un pic de teamă și multă bătaie de cap. Și cu personaje pe care le credea... altfel. 
  „Dansurile Ielelor” este o reinterpretare modernă și ironică a miturilor românești, unde un strop de vrajă se împletește cu sarcasmul, iar frica cu râsul. Peste toate acestea - multă, dar foarte multă vrăjeală. Dacă vrei o poveste plină de ritm, imagini vii și umor subtil, despre copilărie, curaj și farmecul lumii de dincolo de potecă.… ai nimerit bine.

  In the far future, a group of evolved utopians stranded on an inhospitable planet are unable to resist the reemergence of the human animal 
   
   
   
  One million years in the future, the universe has become a utopia for the humans inhabiting it. Having evolved into the race homo uniformis—"man alike throughout"—they share a centralized nervous system and know nothing of war, disease, violence, emotion, or any of the ancient ills that plagued their ancestors. But while en route to a vacation that is light years from Earth, a small group of elite travelers find themselves marooned in the wilderness of the planet Lysenka. And they are not alone. Many millennia ago, during Earth's darker days, human colonists came to this regenerate world, and the creatures their descendants became out of necessity bear little resemblance to the uniquely civilized beings now stranded in their midst. Here, in this place far removed from the protection of uniformity, there is only one rule: Adapt—or die. 
   
   
    
  One of the twentieth century's premier practitioners of the art of science fiction, Grand Master Brian W. Aldiss offers listeners a startling look into the far future with a remarkable work of speculation that explores what it means to be human.
