Book Excerpt: ...nd the crescent and used it as a lever. The rotten planks gave way. One of them uncovered the lock, which he attacked with a big knife, containing a number of blades and implements. A minute later, the gate opened on a waste of bracken which led up to a long, dilapidated building, with a turret at each corner and a sort of a belvedere, built on a taller tower, in the middle.The Prince turned to Hortense: "You are in no hurry," he said. "You will form your decision this evening; and, if M. Rossigny succeeds in persuading you for the second time, I give you my word of honour that I shall not cross your path. Until then, grant me the privilege of your company. We made up our minds yesterday to inspect the château. Let us do so. Will you?

Eight Strokes of the Clock

Arsène Lupin is a witty confidence man and burglar, the Sherlock Holmes of crime. The poor and innocent have nothing to fear from him; often they profit from his spontaneous generosity. The rich and powerful, and the detective who tries to spoil his fun, however, must beware. They are the target of Arsène's mischief and tomfoolery. A masterful thief, his plans frequently evolve into elaborate capers, a precursor to such cinematic creations as Ocean's Eleven and The Sting. Sparkling with amusing banter, these stories-the best of the Lupin series-are outrageous, melodramatic, and literate. Contents: The Arrest of Arsène Lupin; Arsène Lupin in Prison; The Escape of Arsène Lupin; The Mysterious Traveller; The Queen's Necklace; The Seven of Hearts; Madame Imbert's Safe; The Black Pearl; Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too LateWe are happy to announce this classic book.

Comment est né Arsène Lupin ?De tout un concours de circonstances. Non seulement je ne me suis pas dit un jour: je vais créer un type d'aventurier qui aura tel et tel caractère, mais je ne me suis même pas rendu compte tout de suite de l'importance qu'il pouvait prendre dans mon oeuvre.J'étais alors enfermé dans un cercle de romans de moeurs et d'aventures sentimentales qui m'avaient valu quelques succès, et je collaborais d'une manière constante au Gil Blas.Un jour, Pierre Lafitte, avec qui j'étais très lié, me demanda une nouvelle d'aventures pour le premier numéro de Je sais tout qu'il allait lancer. Je n'avais encore rien écrit de ce genre, et cela m'embarrassait beaucoup de m'y essayer.

Arsenio Lupin

Anatole France

How many people, over the centuries, must have read the famous Satyricon attributed to Titus Petronius, more commonly known as Petronius Arbiter, and then thrown it away in disgust, having observed that although it is clearly advertised by its title as a book of satyrs, it does not feature any--not, at least, in a literal sense? Here, at any rate, in The Snuggly Satyricon, edited and translated from the French by Brian Stableford, is the first honest satyricon, featuring an entire chorus line of satyrs, fauns, aegipans and the Great God Pan himself--in whose divine image, of course, satyrs were made. Indeed, in the twenty Decadent tales and Symbolist fantasies in the present volume, the reader will be provided with satyrs of all sorts, some made of stone or wood, some of flesh and blood, and all of the most refined reverie. Never marching to the beat of the charivari of conventional thought, The Snuggly Satyricon will be sure to make the reader cry "Io Pan!"

The Snuggly Satyricon

Um triplo assassinado no Palace Hotel, onde o milionário Rudolf Kesselback, conhecido como o Rei dos Diamantes é a vítima primordial, torna Lupin o principal suspeito. Este herói, que após quatro anos de seu desaparecimento na Agulha Oca ressurge tentando provar sua inocência, recorre a um disfarce no Departamento de Segurança, onde deverá liderar uma das lutas mais difíceis de sua carreira, que será exonerar-se dos assassinatos de que é acusado e desvendar um emaranhado de acontecimentos. As pistas iniciais levam a inscrições encontradas como 813 e APOON. Para piorar, Herlock Sholmes, seu rival, também entra na trama.
