  The Devoted Friend

  In Oscar Wilde’s bittersweet fable The Devoted Friend, kindness and loyalty are put to the test in a charming countryside tale with a sharply moral edge. 
  Little Hans is a gentle gardener who believes deeply in friendship and generosity. His wealthy neighbor, the Miller, speaks poetically about loyalty, sacrifice, and noble intentions — yet never lifts a finger to help Hans in return. As the seasons turn and hardship rises, Hans gives everything he has in the name of friendship… until his devotion demands the ultimate price. 
  Told with Wilde’s signature wit and quiet tragedy, this timeless parable explores the danger of selfish virtue and the innocence of a heart too willing to give. Tender, ironic, and haunting, The Devoted Friend remains a powerful reminder that true friendship is measured not by fine words — but by genuine kindness. 
  Narrated with warmth and emotional depth by Sara Dixon.

  Mildly magical. Fiercely funny! 
  Jester. Juggler. Joker. Jerk. Malfred Murd might be talented, but he’s undeniably abrasive— and he’s pushed the limits of humor right into a ditch. 
  Sacked from his cushy gig on the Royal island, Fred is left playing bootleg shows in dirtwater towns where crowds are scarce and meals are sparse. His only fan is an infuriatingly optimistic magpie who thinks he’s helping when he steals a bag full of shinies. 
  But the bag belongs to the ruler of a Tekologically advanced country that, just like Fred, is deep in Royal disfavor. And as our former funnyman blunders into that noble lady’s desperate plan to save her people, all three Hells break hilariously loose! 
  Enjoy laughter, danger and unforgettable characters galore in this “cleverly plotted, twisty novel with a gratifying conclusion” (the BookLife Prize).
