  The Field Bazaar is a short story by Arthur Conan Doyle, first published on November 20, 1896 in a special "Bazaar Number" of The Student, a publication of the students' representative council at Edinburgh University. It is a Sherlock Holmes story, published under Conan Doyle's byline and featuring both Holmes and his partner, Dr. John Watson. It is, however, treated by most experts as a parody or pastiche not suitable for inclusion in the traditional 60-story canon of Sherlock Holmes, though there are dissenters.Watson narrates "The Field Bazaar"—which mirrors the reality of Conan Doyle's gift of the story to The Student—from a first-person perspective.The story opens with Holmes and Watson at breakfast in the sitting-room of their residence at 221B Baker Street. Holmes infers from a handful of clues that an envelope Watson is holding contains an invitation to "help in the Edinburgh University Bazaar." He then concludes, to Watson's astonishment, "that the particular help which you have been asked to give was that you should write in their album, and that you have already made up your mind that the present incident will be the subject of your article." Holmes then returns to reading his morning newspaper.

  This book is Part 2 of 4 Book-Series, a fan work dedicated as a tribute to Linkin Park music band life's work to date, of which the author's inspiration had come from. This book includes references to the songs, that should be played in the background while reading it, for enhanced experience. 
  "The goal being, it should look like Linkin Park were making the soundtrack for the book, and not the other way around." 
  Synopsis: 
  Exiled from China and hunted by the triads, Tomas has hidden himself in the US. Soon he began to question the loyalty of his new found ally and friend Mike, that was insisting on his good intentions. At first, Mike wanted to create the perfect opportunity for Tomas to combat back the triads. But later he changed his mind, suggesting that Tomas should rather run. All of this, based on information from a source, that he is not at liberty to reveal. But Tomas was determined to stay and fight, should he even hope for the triads to ever let him be. However, after losing his trust in Mike, he had finally broken and chooses to run instead. It was too late... 
  "It can’t be outfought, it can’t be outdone, it can’t be outrun. It’s just the way it is. There is no Justice, except the one that is paid for. In blood, or money. I don’t have money." 
  Note: This book doesn't contain any of the songs referenced in itself, and its purely optional for the reader to gain access to those songs at his own expense. As use of those songs is experimental, it doesn't guarantee improved experience compared to 'just' reading of this book.

  "The Transition of Juan Romero" is a short story by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, written on September 16, 1919, and first published in the 1944 Arkham House volume Marginalia. The story involves a mine that uncovers a very deep chasm, too deep for any sounding lines to hit bottom. The night after the discovery of the abyss the narrator and one of the mine's workers, a Latino called Juan Romero, venture inside the mine, drawn against their will by a mysterious rhythmical throbbing in the ground. Romero reaches the abyss first and is swallowed by it. The narrator peers over the edge, sees something - "but God, I dare not tell you what I saw!" and loses consciousness. That morning he and Romero are both found in their bunks, Romero dead. Other miners swear that neither of them left their cabin that night. The chasm has vanished as well.

  What happens when reason is swallowed by absurdity? 
  In The Crocodile, Fyodor Dostoevsky blends satire and social critique in one of his most unusual and humorous works. The story follows Ivan Matveich, a government official who, while visiting an exhibition, is suddenly swallowed whole by a crocodile. Strangely, he remains alive inside the creature and refuses to be rescued—believing that his predicament offers him a unique intellectual and philosophical advantage. 
  His colleagues, the press, and society react with indifference, treating his bizarre situation as a trivial curiosity rather than a matter of urgency. As Ivan embraces his new existence, the novella cleverly mocks bureaucratic incompetence, self-important intellectuals, and the absurdity of human nature. 
  What You’ll Discover in This Modern Translation:A Brilliant Satirical Comedy – Experience Dostoevsky’s biting humor and wit in a tale that remains as relevant today as in the 19th century.A Thought-Provoking Exploration of Human Ego – Witness the ridiculous ways in which people justify their own misfortunes and delusions.A Masterpiece in a Fresh, Readable Style – This modern adaptation preserves the depth and humor of Dostoevsky’s prose while making it more accessible for today’s readers.A Unique Tale of Bureaucratic Madness – Dive into a world where logic is twisted, and society’s reaction to the absurd is more absurd than the event itself. 
  More than just a comedy, The Crocodile is a sharp critique of human folly, intellectual arrogance, and the absurdities of bureaucracy and ideology. 
  Is Ivan Matveich a tragic figure, a genius, or simply ridiculous? 
  Get your copy today and discover one of Dostoevsky’s most entertaining and thought-provoking works.
