The Little Book of Small Dick Energy - Donald Tate - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

That awkward moment when your date turns up wearing a T-shirt in subzero weather, just to display a 'Tough Mudder: Finisher' t-shirt. Or when you find out your flatmate's password is cryptolegend007. Or when you overhear a loud conversation (with no one) at the checkout queue about how 'natural' it is to eat an all raw meat diet. Or when some guy boasts about the massive emissions from their supercar. Small Dick Energy has nothing to do with body size, and everything to do with having an ego too big to fit into a standard sized parking bay. Stay alert and spot the signs of SDE with this helpful and hilarious guide.

But they say the Goddess has favourites. If so, I''m clearly not one of them.After saving the demon Fallon in a wine-drunk stupor, all he wanted to do was kill an evil witch enslaving his people.I mean, I get it, don''t get me wrong. But he''s dragging me along for the ride, and I''m kind of peeved about it. On the bright side, he keeps burning off his shirt. ''This book is pure, sexy, dirty joy'' Goodreads review

In the Heart of Hidden Things - Kit Whitfield - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Everyone knows that if you fall afoul of the People, you must travel the miles to Gyrford, where uncounted generations of fairy-smiths have protected the county with cold iron, good counsel and unvarnished opinions about your common sense.But shielding the weak from the strong can make enemies. Ephraim Brady has money and power, and the bitter will to hurt those who cross him. And if he can''t touch elder farrier Jedediah Smith, he can harm those the Smiths care about. The Smiths care about Tobias Ware, born on a night when the blazing fey dog Black Hal roared past the Wares'' gate. Tobias doesn''t understand the language or laws of men, and he can''t keep away from the Bellame woods, where trespass is a hanging offence. If Toby is to survive, he needs protection. It should be a manageable job. Jedediah Smith has a head on his shoulders, and so too (mostly) does his son Matthew. Only Matthew''s son John has turned out a little . . . uncommon. But he means well. It wasn''t his fault the bramble bush put on a berry-head and started taking offence. Or that Tobias upset it. But John''s not yet learned that if you follow the things other folk don''t see, they might drag those you love into the path of ruin.

All the Hollow of the Sky - Kit Whitfield - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Jedediah''s father walked out of his life forty years ago. Now he''s back. He won''t apologise, he doesn''t explain - and, impossibly, he hasn''t aged a day. If you asked the folks of Gyrford, they''d tell you Jedediah Smith looked up to his father. After all, Corbie Mackem was the Sarsen Shepherd: the man who saved the Smith clan from Ab, the terrifyingly well-meaning fey who blighted a whole generation with unwanted gifts. Corbie was a good fairy-smith. And if he wasn''t a good father, well, that isn''t something Jedediah likes to talk about. Especially since no one knows where Corbie''s body lies: the day of his son''s wedding, forty-odd years ago, he set off to travel and was never seen again.These days Jedediah is a respectable elder, more concerned with his wayward grandson John than with his long-buried past, and he has other problems on his mind. There''s the preparations for Saint Clement''s Day, and the odd fact that birds all over the county have taken to hiding themselves, and the misbehaviour of Left-Lop the pig - which has grown vegetation all over its back, escaped its farm and taken to making personal remarks at folks in alarmingly alliterative verse.But then disaster strikes. Ab is back. And Corbie, thought long dead, returns to Gyrford - younger than his son . . .

Poems to Fix a F**ked Up World - Various Poets - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Sometimes it''s hard to keep looking up at the stars when the gutter we''re in seems so full of sh*t. But isn''t that why we need poetry? Oscar Wilde wrote some of his best poetry when he was in prison for ''the love that dare not speak its name''. Nelson Mandela held fast to his ''unconquerable soul'' on Robben Island with the help of the words a poet wrote about his battle with tuberculosis a century before. So maybe it''s not inconceivable that the words in this little book could help you put some of the sh*t in perspective, get all the important bits of your life - like sleep, work, food, travel, love and learning - in some kind of balance, so you can go back to star-gazing again . . . Taking as its starting point the classic ''wheel of balance'' life-coach model, this beautifully packaged collection of extracts and short poems gathers wisdom old and new in a perfect gift for anyone who needs comfort in this f**ked up world of ours.''This is not a poetry book as you know it, this is a life raft.''
