Author Hulbert Footner (1879-1944) brought the excitement of the 1920s and 1930s to Madame Storey's cosmopolitan adventures, moving away from Edwardian and Victorian flavors of the mystery genre. Beautiful and aloof. Her secretary/narrator/companion is Bella Brickley. Rosika lives near Gramercy Park in NYC and has a pet monkey. She seems to solve cases by use of good guesswork, "practical psychology" and fortuitous prior knowledge of certain facts or people.
Cień Bafometa. Powieść fantastyczna
Cień Bafometa to powieść fantastyczna, która jest niezwykle twórczym przełożeniem mitu Doktora Jekylla i pana Hyda. Główny bohater opowieści, Tadeusz Pomian, ma stoczyć pojedynek ze swym śmiertelnym wrogiem ministrem Praderą. Ten jednak zostaje nieoczekiwanie zamordowany. Czy to tylko przypadek, czy też działanie siły wyższej? I co ma z tym wszystkim wspólnego Paweł Kuternóżka, właściciel sklepu z dewocjonaliami? Znakomite połączenie realistycznej narracji z oryginalną wizją wyzwolonego zła.
A simply amazingly creative novel by one of the best of the pulp-era authors, originally published 1931. While searching for lost Inca treasure in South America, American mining engineer, Nicholas Graydon stumbles across a lost civilization. A culture both more barbarous than our own and more civilized; more advanced and yet in some ways primitive. Is it a strange and highly advanced technology, or magic, that is responsible for the wonders of this land? Naturally our engineer meets a beautiful young woman Suarra, and they fall in love. But his arrival triggers an epic battle between the Snake Mother and her arch-rival, Nimir. The Face in the Abyss is a brilliant tale filled with weird imagination, marvelous writing, horror, beauty, and it may well be called the most visual book ever written for the world of fantasy.
Sternentau. Die Pflanze vom Neptunsmond

Sie reproduziert Elfen, deren Fähigkeiten bis zum Gedankenlesen reichen. Aber sind diese Elfen gut oder böse? Ein im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes fantastischer Roman.
Silas Marner. The Weaver of Raveloe
Although the shortest of George Eliots novels Silas Marner is a cherished masterwork and a moving story of redemption by the one of the Victorian eras most accomplished novelists. Published in 1861, the author charts the life of the cataleptic, miserly weaver Silas Marner. Arriving in insular Raveloe after a wrongful expulsion from his Calvinist community in the north, Silas is a foreign and outcast figure, left alone to accumulate a useless fortune through his loom in the dawn of the new industrial age. His unhappy life is rendered unrecognizable when his fortune is stolen and he adopts a child Eppie. Silas Marner: The Weaver of Raveloe is a tender and affecting tale of sin and repentance set in a vanished rural world and holds the readers attention until the last page as Eppies bonds of affection for Silas are put to the test.
Chesterton again allows us to accompany Father Brown, preternaturally-unbiased master of human nature, as he stumbles across another series of murders and mysteries. These stories in this series are not as compact as those in other books, notably The Innocence of Father Brown, but they have the same magnetic power to draw the reader in. As ever, Chesterton is interested not only in delivering first rate detective stories, but of describing human nature. His characters are flawed and biased, all blind in their own way, which is what makes it so difficult to see the truth that lies before them. Father Brown, ever kind and imperturbable, nearly always sees right through to the heart of the matter. Posing as a humble parish priest, which he is, he somehow sees beyond the class boundaries which it is Chestertons special gift to point out and puncture.
This is a horror book, but prone to human psychology. The book begins: between the kitchen and the pantry there was a certain window, which was a favorite for Hamlet. Thirty years ago these chronicles of 1894 the basements of houses in provincial English cities, even large houses owned by wealthy people, were dark, cold, odorous caves sizzling with bad gas and smelling of poorly prepared cabbage. The basement of Coles house in Polchester was the same bad, like any other, but this small window between the kitchen and the pantry was higher in the wall than other basement windows.

Edward Phillips Oppenheim (1866-1946) was the earliest writer of spy fiction as understood today, inventing the rogue male school of adventure thrillers and writing over 150 novels of all sorts. In The Golden Beast, a woman curses her lovers father, a baron, who had her gamekeeper father hanged. Years afterward, three of the barons descendants disappear in a manner that baffles Scotland Yard, appearing they were the victims of that ancient curse. Written in 1925, with a powerful Jewish family as the main characters, there are strong descriptions and anti-Semitic characterizations. The men are greedy, money obsessed, and unattractive. The women are beautiful, alluring, exotic, and immoral.
Another little masterpiece of Shakespeare. The name Measure for Measure speaks for itself. In the end, everyone got what they deserved. Above the characters mocked, showing the human nature. The situations seem ridiculous, but it is through them that the truth can be seen.

Wesołe kumoszki z Windsoru to jedyne dzieło dramatyczne Szekspira osadzone we współczesności autora w Anglii przełomu XVI i XVII wieku, stanowiące przy tym znakomity obraz obyczajowości epoki. Dwie zamężne mieszczki padają ofiarami zalotów pewnego szlachcica. Jako że szybko odkrywają jego niecne zamiary, postanawiają zabawić się jego kosztem i zrobić sobie z niego niewybredne żarty.
Father Brown is one of the Hounds greatest crime fighters and his creator, Chesterton, one of the masters of the short crime story. Father Brown is the second among the Great literary detectives, right after Sherlock Holmes. In some ways, Father Brown was a continuation of what Chesterton wrote in his classic Orthodoxy.The Innocence of Father Brown (1911) is the first of five collections of mystery stories by G. K. Chesterton starring an unimposing but surprisingly capable Roman Catholic priest. Father Browns ability to uncover the truth behind the mystery continually surpasses that of the experts around him, who are fooled into underestimation by the priests unimpressive outward appearance and, often, by their own prejudices about Christianity.

The Ghost of Down Hill & The Queen of Shebas Belt
Best remembered for penning the screenplay for the classic film King Kong, author Edgar Wallace was an astoundingly popular luminary in the action-adventure genre in the early twentieth century. The Ghost of Down Hill is an entertaining mystery novella, based on the idea that a ghost of a monk haunts a house built on top of former holy ground. This novella has upbeat tone and surprising outcome. The Queen of Shebas Belt features the disappearance of a priceless belt supposedly worn by the Queen of Sheba. Seemingly the theft is not through want of money but an act to set up a rival in love. Wonderful entertainment and highly entertaining. If you havent discovered the joys of Wallaces mysteries there is a good place to start.

The author brings back old characters such as Anne, Rachel Lynde, and Matthew Cuthbert, although most of the stories are focused around new characters living in Avonlea. Filled with warmth, humor, and mystery, these unforgettable stories re-create the enchanting world of Avonlea.
In seinem amerikanischen Stahlwerk stellt James William Roddington eine Vielzahl 100 Meter lange Rohre mit einem Innendurchmesser von einem Meter her. Er verkauft seine Fabriken an einen übermächtigen Konkurrenten, aber von seiner Stahlproduktion möchte er sich nicht trennen warum? Man munkelt von Riesenkanonen, die er in Auftrag hat. Roddington jedoch lässt die Rohre mit Schiffen zu einer Stelle des Pazifiks transportieren, an der der Meeresgrund durch ein Seebeben bei sagenhaften 15.000 Meter Tiefe liegt. Mithilfe schwimmender Plattformen und Riesenkräne formt er nun aus diesen Rohren eine gigantische Röhre, die vom Wasserspiegel bis zum Grund des Pazifiks ja sogar noch Hunderte Meter unter diesen reicht. Roddington selbst und seine Mitstreiter fahren nun per in der Röhre eingebautem Aufzug hinab zum Meersgrund.
