Summary

Three friends, one dog, and endless laughs on the River Thames.

Three Men in a Boat is Jerome K. Jerome's hilarious and enduring comic novel about three bumbling friends—J., George, and Harris—and their loyal fox terrier Montmorency, as they set out on a boating holiday that quickly turns into a series of ridiculous and unforgettable escapades.

Published in 1889, this quintessentially British farce blends dry wit, absurdity, and keen social observation. Whether fumbling with tents or philosophizing on the miseries of packing, Jerome's characters reflect universal human folly with charm and good humor.

This edition includes classic illustrations and annotations for modern readers, making it the perfect escape for lovers of humor, satire, and travel gone wonderfully wrong.

"Still as funny today as it was over a century ago." — The Guardian
"A comic masterpiece of the English language." — The Times Literary Supplement

    Captain Duncan Arugula is being hunted by a sniffing, snarling, snurgling, pointy-toothed monstrosity. He’s locked in the cockpit of his own spaceship, his crew has gone radio silent since the mutiny, and now the monster — whatever it is, let’s just call it a Problem — is closing in. 
    Lemon Tarts in Space! careens through the desperate final days of the space race and crashes into an apocalyptic future, following Captain Arugula on an absurdist cat-and-mouse chase from the deepest tunnels of the moon up to a blistering dogfight across the stars. 
    Ridley Scott’s Alien meets Monty Python in this light science fiction dark comedy that has been proudly declared (by the author) to be “the dumbest science fiction cancer comedy ever written”.

    Originally published in the Strand Magazine between December 1894 and September 1903. The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard by Arthur Conan Doyle, the celebrated author of Sherlock Holmes and the Lost, follows the adventures of Brigadier Etienne Gerard, a courageous soldier in the service of Napoleon.From a sleepy cafe in Paris, he whiles away the hours recounting his glories in the service of France. From his victory over the Count of the Castle of Gloom, the mysterious affair of the Ajaccio Brothers and his daring escape from Dartmoor Prison to his brush with the dastardly Marshal Millefleurs and his successful conveying of the Emperors own despatches through the enemy held towns of Soison and Senlis. Gerard never wavers in his dedication to the Emperor, or his convictions that he is the finest soldier in all of france, and therefore, the world.Adapted into several films and radio dramas across the years, George McDonald Fraser once cited Brigadier Gerard as a major inspiration for his own fictional comedic adventurer Harry Flashman.Narrated by Michael Ward.
