Have you ever wanted to have a jester? Wouldn’t you also like to see the gladiatorial fights of lawyers, meet the genie from the fire department, be present during the archers’ raid on the printing house, and meet the skinny old woman Quarenzima at the entrance? To meet a writer, a knight of the Order of the Holy Bestseller, to whom the Bookworm offered to “kill the hero”? Visit a “Second hand” shop where they sell used destinies? Engage in battle with space pirates? Starring in the same film with vampire actors? Go ahead, reader! This book consists of the most phantasmagoric, most ironic and, perhaps, the most unusual works of G.L. Oldie. Contents: Cracker (novel) Order of the Saint Bestseller, or Going into circulation (novel) Stranger among our own (story) Second hands (play) Hero of your time (short story series)Tales of the Vampire Grandfather (short story series)Shadows of my city (short story series)
