Sinopsis

In "Among the Gnomes," Franz Hartmann invites readers into a whimsical yet philosophically rich narrative that seeks to bridge the realms of folklore and spiritual understanding. This work employs a lyrical prose style reminiscent of early 20th-century mystical literature, drawing heavily on themes of nature, elemental magic, and the unseen forces that influence our daily lives. Hartmann's meticulous descriptions and imaginative storytelling create a tapestry that interweaves mysticism with the age-old traditions surrounding gnomes, inviting readers to explore the depth of nature spirits and their relevance in human existence. Franz Hartmann, a prominent figure in the late 19th-century occult movement, was deeply influenced by his studies in Theosophy, astrology, and Anthroposophy. His passion for the mystical arts and his travels across Europe enriched his worldview and inspired an earnest belief in the interconnectedness of all beings—both seen and unseen. It is this ethos that underpins "Among the Gnomes," reflecting his desire to enlighten readers about the hidden joys and insights of a life attuned to nature's deeper rhythms. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the interplay between folklore and spirituality. Hartmann's visionary prose resonates with those seeking not only entertainment but also a profound understanding of humanity's relationship with the natural world. "Among the Gnomes" promises to captivate the imaginations of readers, enriching their perception of a landscape inhabited by magic.

    Arthur C. Clarke’s Exile of the Eons opens at the moment of total defeat. A ruthless mastermind, cornered by the collapse of his global war, refuses surrender and turns instead to an audacious experiment in suspended animation—choosing exile in time rather than face justice. He believes that a hundred years will be enough for the world to forget his name and his crimes. 
    But time is far larger than he expects. When the story leaps deep into Earth’s distant future, the consequences of his gamble reveal themselves through the eyes of another exile—one far removed from violence, empire, and conquest. As civilizations rise and fall, Clarke unfolds a vast cosmic perspective that reframes power, morality, and responsibility. The story builds toward a quiet but profound reckoning that lingers long after the final pages. 
    Arthur C. Clarke is one of the most influential voices in science fiction history, celebrated for blending scientific rigor with philosophical depth. His stories often explore humanity’s place in the universe, the ethics of power, and the long shadows cast by technology and ambition. 
    Best known for works like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Clarke helped define modern hard science fiction while remaining deeply concerned with moral consequence. Exile of the Eons showcases his gift for compressing epic spans of time into intimate, unforgettable moments.

    This might be his biggest coup yet! Legendary master thief Gideon Sable is on the hunt for the ghost of an alien-possessed man in this fast-paced supernatural heist thriller. 
     
    The Preserve in Bath - the British Area 51 - is the secret government dumping ground for all things supernatural and out of space. It is one of the most heavily-guarded places in the world. However, it's not what protects it that makes it so dangerous but the things that are inside . . . 
     
    Gideon Sable - master thief, con artist and self-proclaimed vigilante - faces a challenge he can't refuse. His client, the former Head of the British Rocketry Group, Professor Neil Sharpe, wants him to break into the Preserve. Once inside, Gideon and his crew of supernatural misfits can get any mystical artefact they desire  
    out of the Preserve's collection. The catch? To reach it, they must go through the treacherous Box Tunnel complex and not only face trained guards and booby traps but steal something that can't normally be stolen - a ghost! 
     
    Sharpe's obscure motive leaves Gideon uncertain and suspicious. The only thing he knows for sure is that he can steal anything with just the right amount of preparation - but will he be prepared enough to face whatever the Preserve holds, or will he find himself a permanent part of the government's collection?
