The book explores themes of ambition, power, and guilt through the tragic story of Macbeth. It begins with three witches who prophesy that Macbeth will become king, igniting his dark desires. Struggling with his murderous thoughts, he is ultimately spurred on by his wife, Lady Macbeth, leading him to kill King Duncan in his sleep. As Macbeth ascends to the throne, he becomes increasingly paranoid about losing his power, prompting him to murder Banquo, whose ghost haunts him during a banquet. In a desperate search for reassurance, Macbeth consults the witches again, who mislead him into a false sense of security with their cryptic prophecies. However, his downfall is sealed when Macduff, who was born by caesarean section, confronts him. The weight of his actions drives both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth to madness and death, leaving a powerful commentary on the consequences of unchecked ambition and moral decay.

This is my third book on Parapsychology. The first one was an introductory book and the second book was to highlight the need for trending towards Causal Research. This book is a little different as it is trying to look at Parapsychology in an unbiased rational way by including details of opponents' views and weighing the views of proponents and opponents in a rational way. My two earlier published books had a leaning towards a firm belief in paranormal events and probably had a so-called "Confirmation Bias.”

Komiksová adaptace slavného románu anglického spisovatele Daniela Defoa je určena dětem od 9 let. Strhující děj, výstižné ilustrace a forma obrázkového románu nadchne každé dítě a čtení se tak pro něj stane zábavou. Devatenáctiletý Robinson Crusoe není spokojen se svým klidným, ale nudným životem v Anglii. Tak rád by se plavil po moři a poznával svět. Jeho touha po dobrodružství ho přiměje bez rozloučení s rodiči opustit rodnou zemi a vydat se do cizích krajů. Během následujících pěti let poznává mnoho míst a lidí, ale především sám sebe. Zažije několik nebezpečných situací na moři i na pevnině, a tak si začíná pohrávat s myšlenkou, že se usadí. Ale jeho dobrodružná povaha ho ještě jednou přiměje nasednout na loď. Tentokrát má však ztroskotání lodi katastrofální následky a Robinson se jako jediný z posádky zachrání na zdánlivě opuštěném ostrově. Je možné, aby v takové situaci člověk sám přežil? Podaří se mu ostrov opustit, nebo na něm bude muset zůstat?

"Uno spettro si aggira per l'immaginario collettivo, e questo spettro si chiama Frankenstein. Mary Shelley ha indubbiamente creato un capolavoro, ma anche una sorta di icona pop, divenuta proverbiale e versatile, tale da essere evocata nelle situazioni più impensate. [...] Da un lato Frankenstein suscita interesse come ipotesi sulla possibilità di un mortale di sostituirsi a Dio, o alla Natura, mentre dall'altro riporta alla luce ogni sentimento di orrore e di repulsione radicato nei più profondi recessi dell'animo umano. Sotto questo punto di vista, l'impatto dell'opera sul lettore è duplice, stimolandone allo stesso modo l'interesse così come le più cupe emozioni; il ritmo serrato dell'inseguimento assieme ai crimini perpetrati dal mostro contribuiscono ulteriormente a tenere alta la tensione, mentre il pericolo della cosiddetta "hideous progeny" - a cui la creatura potrebbe dare origine se dotata di una compagna della stessa specie - provoca le stesse paure generate dal dilagare di una pestilenza".
