I...suppose this is as good a time as any to make myself known to all of you. Rycroft Philostrate, formerly a police inspector of The Burgue. Or Philo. Philo is much better. This world is by far more technologically advanced, but far less magical than the one I've left behind, while it manages to be all the brighter for the differences that it does not SEEM to stand against, yet. I've made the acquaintances of Ms Moore, Mr. McDuck, Doctor Strange, reluctantly, and a few others, but not the world at large.
So, as a means of starting conversations, recommend your favourite book to me, perhaps? Ones that can be found here, that is.
