Kaos (Profanebiblioteket #1)
by Jb TrepagnierProfanebiblioteket har alt det ditt svarte hjerte ønsker seg. Men vi tillater ikke hvem som helst et lånekort. Trenger du å mane frem en demon? Vekke de døde? En klan med vampyrer som plager deg? Liker du skikkelig klissete varulverotikk? Profanebiblioteket har alt dette, men det er ikke alle som kan håndtere innholdet (noen folk håndterer ikke varulvporno). Jeg har vært bibliotekar her i fem år, og når jeg sier jeg drepte for å få denne jobben, så tuller jeg ikke. Du kan ikke se gjennom bøkene våre. Noen av bøkene er selvbevisste og liker det ikke. Vi har rom for å utføre trylleformlene i, og vi har en kopimaskin (kopier koster ekstra). Da en heks kom inn og sa at de trengte å gjøre litt nekromanti, satte jeg ikke spørsmålstegn ved det. De ville ikke fått et lånekort om de skulle mane frem noe fryktelig. Jeg hjalp dem med nekromantien fordi det er en av jobbene mine som bibliotekar. Men det var ikke noe normalt de manet frem. Det var den fysiske personifikasjonen av Kaos. Da han våknet, så han meg først, og nå er han knyttet. Personifikasjonen av Kaos er en forferdelig bibliotekgjest, og han vil ikke dra med heksen som manet ham frem. Han kommer konstant inn i ting som han ikke skal, og han er sykt interessert i varulverotikk. Det er ikke sånn at jeg kan slippe ham ut, fordi Profanebiblioteket skal liksom holde igjen Kaos. Resten av verden skal ikke det. Han er også veldig dårlig på å holde identiteten sin hemmelig. En trollmann, en Helveteshund og en vampyr vet at han er her, og de maser på meg for å la Kaos ha det litt gøy. Jeg vil bare ha en normal dag med å mane frem demoner, forbanne folk og fortelle dem å være stille i biblioteket mitt. Dette er for mye.
Kapitoil: A Novel
by Teddy Wayne“A brilliant book. Karim Issar is one of the freshest, funniest heroes I’ve come across in a long time.” — Ben Fountain, bestselling author of Brief Encounters with Che Guevara“An innovative and incisive meditation on the wages of corporate greed, the fundamental darkness of its vision lit by the author’s great comic intelligence and wit.” — Kathryn Davis, author of The Thin Place, Hell: A Novel, and VersaillesWith a fresh and singular voice, Teddy Wayne marks his literary debut with the story of one 26 year old Middle Eastern man’s attempt to live the American Dream in New York City.

Her influence, and his father's disapproval of Karim's Americanization, cause him to question the moral implications of Kapitoil, moving him toward a decision that will determine his future, his firm's, and to whom—and where—his loyalties lie.
