A.R.R.R. Roberts

Doctor Whom, the grammatically correct TimeLord (or should that be Time Lord? Or is it Timelord?) has come to save our universe from the terror's of sloppy syntax and bad grammar. With his intrepid assistant Lynne: hes here to correct greengrocers sign's, popular fiction and government memos (memoes?) before inaccurate and lazy communication rips apart the very fabric of the space time continuum. Is it any wonder that the rise of global warming has coincided with the decline in the teaching of Latin in our schools? I do'nt think so. Will the Doctor save us all? or will his evil nemisises (nemisiss? nemisi?) The Dalek's triumph and rule over a universe where no-one has any clear idea of the correct usage of semi-colons?

Výtečná parodie na klasické Tolkienovo dílo, kde nás autor přesvědčuje o svém svébytném smyslu pro humor a také o tom, že mu ani v tomto případě není nic svaté.

Nejlepší parodie na světový bestseller. Rozmotejte s námi pětici pekelně zašmodrchaných tajemství, která otřesou veškerou vaší důvěrou v uspořádání světa! A v ryby, natožpak v rybí prsty. O moudrosti obsažené v jiných knihách ani nemluvě. Považte: AU! Velevážený správce uměleckých sbírek je nalezen mrtev ve své galerii a v krku má zaraženou téměř metrovou tresku. HM? Úžasný mladý muž a význačný anagramatolog, jaksepatří pohledný, svobodný a skvěle zaopatřený nekuřák se sice setkává s mnoha ženami, ale žádná zatím nebyla ta pravá...

Potměšilý britský autor sci-fi Adam Roberts, který se pod pseudonymem Robertski Brothers už otřel třeba o kultovní trilogii Matrix v parodii McAtrix Derided, 2004 (česky McAtrix Recesed, 2004), ve svém obrazoboreckém zápalu nenechal na pokoji ani Tolkiena a a jeho Silmarillion a rozhodně nemíní dostát žánrovým zvyklostem.

In the grand tradition of the parody bestseller Bored of the Rings, this uproarious literary spoof follows the Tolkienesque adventures of Bingo "Sac" Grabbings, a rather unremarkable Soddit of Upper Middle Earth. He ventures forth (despite very sore and swollen feet indeed!) alongside Gandef the Coughing Wizard and a band of psoriasis-scratching, who-knows-what's-in-the-pipe-puffing dwarves, as they set out to relieve the haughty dragon Smug of his ill-gotten gold. With the recent blockbuster bo x office success of the Lord of the Rings films, the time is ripe for someone to poke a bit of good-natured fun at the phenomenon that is The Hobbit, and this hilarious parody succeeds brilliantly. Written by an acknowledged expert on all things Tolk ien, it both salutes and skewers the classic novel, reinventing the tale of a courageous little being whose amazing persistenceand more than a bit of Soddit luckbelies his diminutive stature.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto kn ihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu.

THE SELLAMILLION is NOT a parody of Tolkien's THE SILMARILLION. That would be pointless because although all Tolkien fans have a copy, only three of them have read past page 40. It is, however, a parody of all that Tolkien created as he worked on LOR D OF THE RINGS. The history of the elderly days. Early missing drafts of LORD OF THE RINGS. A correspondence between the author and publisher on whether it should be a Bellybutton Stud of Doom rather than a Ring of Power. An experimental version of L OTR as if written by Dr Seuss. That sort of thing. It'll be funny. Possibly hilarious. The author's told us it will be. Promised even. And he did write THE SODDIT. And that was quite funny.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu.
