"« Je crois que vous n'allez pas beaucoup m'aimer. Je fais des choses terribles. À mes ennemis, à mes alliés, à moi-même. Dans la manœuvre, je sauve bon nombre d'inconnus (entre cinq et dix par semaine) du pire sort qui puisse frapper un être humain. J'aimerais dire que je me comporte ainsi parce que je fais partie des gentils, mais vous me perceriez aussitôt à jour. »
Hourra ! La grande-duchesse d'Essen attend un fils. Quel dommage que le petit soit déjà possédé par un démon.
Un humour aussi acerbe que son narrateur, un génie à la Léonard de Vinci et Machiavel, un exorciste sans cœur : tout ce qu'il faut pour un roman aussi malin que jouissif.

"In K. J. Parker's whip-smart dark fantasy, a group of scholars must do the impossible for a ruthless king. The cost of refusal, of course, is death.
History isn't truth; it's propaganda.
Seeking war with his neighbor, the tyrannical ruler of Aelia convenes several of his kingdom's professors for a chat. First Citizen Gyges only just invaded Aelia a few years back, and naturally, his public image can't take the hit of another unjustified assault.
His totally sane solution? Simple, really. These scholars must construct a fake ancient city from scratch to verify Gyges's apocryphal claims.
Now these academics must put their heads together to make history. Because if they don't, they'll lose their heads altogether."

"The greatest philosopher of all time is offering to sell his soul to the Devil. All he wants is twenty more years to complete his life’s work. After that, he really doesn’t care.
But the assistant demon assigned to the case has his suspicions, because the philosopher is Saloninus–the greatest philosopher, yes, but also the greatest liar, trickster and cheat the world has yet known; the sort of man even the Father of Lies can’t trust.
He’s almost certainly up to something; but what?"

"When you need a memory to be wiped, call me.
Transferring unwanted memories to my own mind is the only form of magic I've ever mastered. But now, I'm holding so many memories I'm not always sure which ones are actually mine, any more.
Some of them are sensitive; all of them are private. And there are those who are willing to kill to access the secrets I'm trying to bury...
A classic Parker tale with a strong supporting cast of princes, courtiers, merchants, academics, and generally unsavory people."
