        Three Months in August (Drei Monate im August)

        by Max Claro

        In their free time, Tom, a successful bar owner, and Pfiff, an anesthesiology nurse, like to go parachute jumping out of airplanes or BASE-jumping off bridges and buildings. Their second passion—emergency rescue. Speeding through Munich, lights flashing and sirens blaring, they come to the aid of those in need. Bizarre cases and amorous adventures greet them along the way. Meanwhile, the two men resolve important questions: How do you get into a sold-out rock concert for free? How long does the brain keep functioning after death? How wide is a cockroach? And why should you refrain from lighting candles during S&M roleplay? Authentic, gripping, and full of humor—from parachuting to couch to saving lives. To them, boredom is an alien concept.

        501 Writers One-Liners

        by Quentin Cope

        501 Writers One Liners This book of One-Liners is the third in the ‘501’ series. It contains a selection of one line thoughts and ponderings, many of which are amusing and some of which are profound. This offering is aimed mainly at writers and authors as a reminder pad of situations and observations seen through the eyes of someone with a sense of humor, or someone who has taken the trouble to actually sit on that mountain peak … somewhere, and think! The format is similar to ‘501 Writers Useful Phrases’ and ‘501 More Writers Useful Phrases’ in that the content is divided into ten sections with 50 ‘one liners’ in each section and 51 in the final section. If this little book does nothing more than bring a smile to your face at three o’clock in the morning, slaving tirelessly over the ending of Chapter Four, after a full day of looking after the kids or holding down a high pressure job for ten hours, then it will have been worth it. However, if only one of the offerings within these pages jogs a memory button, allowing you to construct that searched for finished phrase, then this can only be considered a bonus.
