  Whispers in the literary realm speak of a cryptic tale known as "Only a Ghost!" penned by none other than Irenæus the Deacon himself. But hark! This is no ordinary travelogue, for it is a work of humor and fiction that was brought to life by Sabine Baring-Gould. It is said that the spirit of Irenæus, once belonging to the church of 4th century Jerusalem, haunts the streets of the "most religious city of the world" in the year 1870. Within the pages of this eerie masterpiece, Baring-Gould reveals the spine-tingling account of Irenæus' bewilderment at the state of Christianity - one that is fraught with hypocrisy, superficiality, and superstition. And yet, as fate would have it, the unsuspecting citizens of London also find themselves awestruck by Irenæus' unwarranted thoughts.

  A man and his android are running. From colony worlds to crowded cities, crimes follow them wherever they go, baffling authorities and leaving a growing body count behind. The android is sophisticated, obedient, and designed for service—yet something is deeply wrong. As the pair struggle to stay ahead of the law, every new destination brings mounting tension, suspicion, and fear. 
  Fondly Fahrenheit is a gripping psychological science fiction story that explores identity, responsibility, and the blurred boundary between human and machine. Alfred Bester weaves crime, suspense, and speculative science into a relentless chase narrative where violence erupts without warning and patterns hide in plain sight. The story’s unsettling power comes not from gadgets, but from the fragile human mind and the consequences of denying what it creates. 
  Alfred Bester was one of the most innovative voices of mid-20th-century science fiction. Known for his bold narrative experiments and sharp psychological insight, he pushed the genre beyond traditional space adventure. His work often explored obsession, identity, and the hidden costs of progress, influencing generations of writers who followed. 
  Bester is best remembered for challenging readers to think differently about science fiction itself. His stories are fast, intense, and intellectually daring, combining emotional depth with unforgettable ideas that still feel disturbingly relevant today.
