But when they accidently uncover an accident Psammead--or Sand-fairy--who has the power to make wishes come true, they find themselves having the holiday of a lifetime, sharing one thrilling adventure after another. Asleep since dinosaurs roamed the earth, the ill-tempered, odd--looking Psammead --with his spider-shaped body, bat's ears, and snail's eyes --grudgingly agrees to grant the children one wish per day. Soon, though the children discover that their wishes have a tendancy to turn out quite differnetly than expected. Whatever they wish whether it's to fly like a bird, live in a mighty castle, or have an immense fortune --something goes terribly wrong, hilariously wrong.

The Incomplete Amorist
￥8.82
A gentle tale of romance and art from a noted children's author . . . "He asked idle questions: she answered them with a conscientious tremulous truthfulness that showed to him as the most finished art. Betty told him nervously and in words ill-chosen everything that he asked to know, but all the while the undercurrent of questions rang strong within her -- 'When is he to teach me? Where? How?' -- so that when at last there was left but the bare fifteen minutes needed to get one home in time for the midday dinner she said abruptly: 'And when shall I see you again?'

The Sky Lines Alliance
￥48.97
The egalitarian nation of Aotearoa may be a safe haven for freedom fighters, but former Sky commander Breta yearns for more. The sudden build-up of troopers in the southern Brown Zone, and a conviction that someone is still betraying the Women’s Line, provide a stimulating assignment. Breta gets more than he bargained for during his clandestine visit to the bay region, but this only serves to strengthen his resolve to implement an alliance between the Sky pilots, the Kauri-Australia Line (KAL) and the Women’s Line to overthrow the totalitarian Australian government. The situation alters when villagers in the northern Brown Zone stage their own small but successful insurrection - the Sky Lines Alliance is formed and Operation Unity begins. But they’ll soon discover that radical change cannot be achieved without recourse to the dark side.

Misterio
￥9.00

Más tarde, ya en casa de Dorff, éste le entrega a Renato un manuscrito y un cofre con documentos importantísimos que los que están en el poder en Francia, Luis XVIII y su jefe de policía Lecazes, pretenden arrebatarle. La autora aborda por primera vez el género de la novela histórica mediante la recreación de la compleja historia de Luis XVII, el delfín perdido, el hijo de Luis XVI y María Antonieta. Asistiremos también a la intriga amorosa de Renato de Giac y Amelia, la hija mayor de Dorff. Este es un excepcional relato que aspira, como nos dice la autora en su novela, “a proyectar un rayo de luz en las lobregueces históricas por medio de la lámpara caprichosa de la fantasía”.

His Last Bow: Sherlock Holmes
￥8.82
His Last Bow is a collection of seven Sherlock Holmes stories (eight in American editions) by Arthur Conan Doyle, as well as the title of one of the stories in that collection. Originally published in 1917, it contains the various Holmes stories published between 1908 and 1913, as well as the one-off title story from 1917. The collection was originally called Reminiscences of Sherlock Holmes and did not contain the actual story His Last Bow, which appeared later, after the full-length The Valley of Fear was published. However later editions added it and changed the title. Some recent complete editions have restored the earlier title. When the Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes were published in the USA for the first time, the publishers believed "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" was too scandalous for the American public, since it dealt with the theme of adultery. As a result, this story was not published in the USA until many years later, when it was added to His Last Bow. Even today, most American editions of the canon include it with His Last Bow, while most British editions keep the story in its original place in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes.

The Lost World is a novel released in 1912 by Arthur Conan Doyle concerning an expedition to a plateau in South America where prehistoric animals (dinosaurs and other extinct creatures) still survive.

Much more time is devoted to a war between early human hominids and a vicious tribe of ape-like creatures.
