A LOCUS AWARD FINALIST FOR BEST NOVELLA

Saad Z. Hossain continues to blow through the flimsy walls of genre like a whirlwind with The Gurkha and the Lord of Tuesday, sweeping science-fiction, fantasy, myth, and satire into the wildly imaginative vortex of his ever-expanding fictional universe of alternate djinn-history and futures. Hossain's wit and wry compassion create a vision of humanity's hurtling path through time and space as both farcical and epic, leaving a blazing trail of casualties and wonders.--Indra Das

When the djinn king Melek Ahmar wakes up after millennia of imprisoned slumber, he finds a world vastly different from what he remembers. Arrogant and bombastic, he comes down the mountain expecting an easy conquest: the wealthy, spectacular city state of Kathmandu, ruled by the all-knowing, all-seeing tyrant AI Karma. To his surprise, he finds that Kathmandu is a cut-price paradise, where citizens want for nothing and even the dregs of society are distinctly unwilling to revolt.

Everyone seems happy, except for the old Gurkha soldier Bhan Gurung. Knife saint, recidivist, and mass murderer, he is an exile from Kathmandu, pursuing a forty-year-old vendetta that leads to the very heart of Karma. Pushed and prodded by Gurung, Melek Ahmer finds himself in ever deeper conflicts, until they finally face off against Karma and her forces. In the upheaval that follows, old crimes will come to light and the city itself will be forced to change.

Beautiful comfortable shoe for white shoe lovers!
Size: 9.5, Color: Deep White
The Lacoste Men's Bayliss Sneaker is nothing short of exceptional. As a long-time fan of the brand, I recently added these sneakers to my collection, and they have exceeded my expectations in every way. Sleek and Stylish Design (5/5): Lacoste is renowned for its timeless and sophisticated designs, and the Bayliss Sneaker is no exception. These sneakers effortlessly blend classic elegance with modern aesthetics. The clean lines, subtle logo detailing, and high-quality materials used in their construction make them a perfect choice for those who appreciate both style and simplicity. Whether you're dressing up for a casual event or just running errands, these sneakers elevate your look without ever feeling out of place. Supreme Comfort (5/5): Comfort is the hallmark of these sneakers. The moment you slip your feet into them, you'll notice the plush cushioning and exceptional support. I've worn them for long walks, a day of shopping, and even for light exercise, and my feet have remained comfortable and fatigue-free throughout. The padded collar and tongue add to the overall comfort, and they provide a snug fit without any uncomfortable pressure points. Impressive Durability (5/5): The Lacoste Bayliss Sneakers are built to last. The combination of premium leather and canvas in the upper ensures they can withstand daily wear and tear, and the rubber outsole provides excellent traction on a variety of surfaces. Even after months of regular use, they still look and feel as good as new, which is a testament to their quality construction. True to Size (5/5): When it comes to sizing, Lacoste seems to have nailed it. I ordered my usual size, and the fit was spot-on. There was just the right amount of room in the toe box without feeling too tight. I appreciate the brand's consistency in sizing, which makes shopping for their products a hassle-free experience. Outstanding Value (5/5): While Lacoste is associated with premium quality, the Bayliss Sneaker offers excellent value for money. The combination of style, comfort, durability, and brand reputation makes these sneakers a smart investment. They are versatile enough to complement various outfits, making them a valuable addition to your wardrobe. In conclusion, the Lacoste Men's Bayliss Sneaker is a triumph of design and comfort. Whether you're a loyal Lacoste fan or someone seeking a high-quality, stylish, and comfortable sneaker, these are an outstanding choice. They combine the best elements of fashion and functionality, making them suitable for a wide range of occasions. From casual outings to semi-formal events, these sneakers effortlessly blend in while ensuring your feet stay comfortable and supported. I couldn't be happier with my purchase, and I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a top-notch pair of sneakers.

Excellent!
Size: 12, Color: Black/White
These men’s Lacoste sneakers are excellent! The quality is top-notch, and the leather is very soft and feels premium. Overall, Lacoste is a great brand with consistently good quality. The sneakers are very comfortable to wear, although they do run slightly small, so sizing up may be a good idea. The price was also better than in-store, which made this purchase an even better deal. Overall, I’m very satisfied and happy with these sneakers
