Six Foolish Companions: Largely A Story And Loosely About Game Theory by Isaac Imins? Price verified 5 hours ago

So, in this book six foolish companions are on a quest to find a magic lamp that is said to have the power to grant three wishes. Along the way they play various games that at least loosely resemble the kind you'd find in game theory, and they can win or lose gold in these games, and whoever returns to the king (who's the one who sent them on this quest) with the most gold will be allowed to have one wish from the lamp. The others will get nothing (except the gold they won of course, although everyone does have to return a certain amount to the king at the end).

Suburbia Made Me Do It by Ashley Fontainne (2 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

My name is Roxy Davenport--the epitome of a suburban housewife. For over twenty-five years, I have based my entire life off the ancient, mental code of ethics passed down from previous generations I secretly nicknamed The Suburbia Handbook. High school sweethearts must marry and the wife is to stay at home and raise the children while the husband brings home the bacon. All married couples must procreate and raise, at a minimum, 2.5 children, preferably staggered in ages by three years. A woman's job as housewife is to maintain a pleasant, always spotless home for her family. Check. Housewives must service their husband's needs when the man's urges overtake him, no matter how tired, sick, in pain, or stressed the wife feels. For over twenty years, I adhered to the strict rules... until now. After a series of traumatic events, my life spirals out of control, destroying each and every archaic, foundational rule. Except Rule Number Eleven: One must defend their family, no matter what. This rule trumps everything else, even if the defense comes in the form of bodily harm to another. Or until death do us part.

The First Night (Dream Sequence Book 1) by Grey Heuer (2 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

"Well, what is a dream? What is reality? In reality we dream, therefore dreams must be real. If reality is what we perceive in our minds, and dreams occur in the mind, then how do dreams differ from reality?" Damien thought she was done but she wasn't. "If feelings are what define reality and you dream a sad dream," here she paused and looked at Damien sympathetically, "and you wake up sad, then your dream has caused you to have real feelings that affect your waking hours. So in that way dreams are most definitely real, they are a part of reality. "Or perhaps reality is defined as interaction with other realities, then -- " "Okay! Enough! Never mind." Damien was sorry he asked. Damien is dreaming, that much is obvious, even to Damien. What will it take for him to wake up? And does he even want to?

This is disposable fiction at the sharp end, nothing more. What are people saying about the Penny Detective? Post Online 'The author has made the main character, Morris Shannon, vulnerable and sarcastic and I can relate to this, as will most readers.
