  Frederick is freed of his indentures to the ferociously temperate Pirates of Penzance. What will he do with his newfound freedom?  
  This audiobook is based on the libretto from W. S. Gilbert, of Gilbert and Sullivan fame. It includes all the original material in the libretto, adapted to make the tale a narrative, rather than an operetta.  
  It’s a rare opportunity to celebrate the sharp wit of Gilbert’s writing, as it is brought to the fore.

  The Wonderful Visit

  H. G. Wells

  When an angel accidentally falls to Earth — quite literally — Victorian England isn’t ready for him. 
  In The Wonderful Visit, H. G. Wells blends gentle comedy, quiet wonder, and sharp social insight in this whimsical tale of the extraordinary disrupting the everyday. When a vicar mistakes a celestial visitor for a rare bird and wounds him, he soon discovers the “strange bird” is, in fact, an angel — bewildered, radiant, and suddenly subject to the odd rules of human life. 
  As the vicar tends to his unexpected guest, the angel must confront earthly aches, polite society, manners, gossip, and the peculiar limitations of mortals. What follows is a heart-touching and humorous exploration of innocence, belief, and the fragile barrier between the divine and the ordinary. 
  With charm and subtle satire, Wells invites us to consider how humanity might greet the miraculous — with curiosity, confusion, and perhaps a touch of grace. 
  A tender, thoughtful fantasy told with wit and warmth.

  Marlee's Correction - A Sweet...

  Everybody makes mistakes. Even people as sweet, innocent, and well-behaved as Marlee Sanders. When this cute freshman is hired by her sociology professor to detail his car—and his car happens to be a very expensive sparkle-red Dodge Viper—well, even Marlee can buckle under the strain of temptation!
   
  She just can't help it. She’s just so in love with this car. And she would give just about anything for just one chance to take that beauty out for a spin!
   
  So, after her professor and his two college-age sons, Connor and Evan, go off to play golf, leaving her alone with the car, Marlee gives in to her desire. For the next hour, she is thrilled out of her mind as she cruises along the nearby highways and byways.
   
  Until it starts to rain and snaps Marlee out of her reverie. She hurries back and starts to work on the car...
   
  And not a minute too soon, for, just then, her professor and his sons return home from their rained-out golf game!
   
  And they can plainly see that she’s done very little work on the car. Worse, while she’s in the bathroom, they check the odometer, and—uh, oh—they can also see that, in their absence, Marlee took their prized car for a joyride.
   
  Marlee is in big trouble.
   
  But she has no idea how big until her professor informs her that her punishment will consist of a bare-bottom spanking with all of them watching.
   
  Lying across his knee, Marlee endures the worst humiliation of her life.
   
  Then, even worse, her professor invites Connor and Evan to have a turn. 
   
  But her pain is short-lived, for when Evan has his turn, he can't bring himself to actually spank her—opting instead for gentle caresses and love-pats.
   
  Apparently, Evan is the only one of the three with any measure of compassion, gentleness, and kindness.
   
  And that is precisely why, when everything is all over, he finds himself being rewarded in the most erotically gratifying ways he ever could have imagined!
