The History of the Caliph Vathek
Summary
Vathek, ninth Caliph of the race of the Abassides, was the son of Motassem, and the grandson of Haroun Al Raschid. From an early accession to the throne, and the talents he possessed to adorn it, his subjects were induced to expect that his reign would be long and happy. His figure was pleasing and majestic; but when he was angry one of his eyes became so terrible that no person could bear to behold it, and the wretch upon whom it was fixed instantly fell backward, and sometimes expired. For fear, however, of depopulating his dominions and making his palace desolate he but rarely gave way to his anger. Being much addicted to women and the pleasures of the table, he sought by his affability to procure agreeable companions; and he succeeded the better as his generosity was unbounded, and his indulgences unrestrained, for he was by no means scrupulous, nor did he think with the Caliph Omar Ben Abdalaziz that it was necessary to make a hell of this world to enjoy Paradise in the next. He surpassed in magnificence all his predecessors. The palace of Alkoremmi, which his father Motassem had erected on the hill of Pied Horses, and which commanded the whole city of Samarah, was in his idea far too scanty; he added therefore five wings, or rather other palaces, which he destined for the particular gratification of each of his senses. In the first of these were tables continually covered with the most exquisite dainties, which were supplied both by night and by day, according to their constant consumption, whilst the most delicious wines and the choicest cordials flowed forth from a hundred fountains that were never exhausted. This palace was called “The Eternal or Unsatiating Banquet”.

Adam and Eve
Summary
Remember the children's' story about Adam and Eve and the fabled Garden of Eden? Just a story about two not-very-smart people who were given life in the most beautiful garden ever made, and they blew it, big-time. But wait - what if everything, and I mean everything, you've heard about Adam and Eve was wrong? Ask yourself these questions: Why would the omnipotent, omniscient God create imbeciles as the first two human beings? Why does the bible actually say in Timothy 2:14: "Adam was not deceived"? So if Adam wasn't deceived, why in the world would he follow the woman's example and eat the fruit? What was Satan's plan in all of this? And what in the world (or, actually, in heaven) was the angelic host doing? They must have been watching. Maybe the story of Adam and Eve is actually much more complicated and entrancing than we've been taught all these years. Maybe...we are the ones who have been deceived. This book is an exploration into good and evil, great love, and even greater mistakes.
