Por supuesto, solo el mayor héroe de la historia del multiverso podrá detenerlo. Lo que nadie podía esperar es que este héroe se llamase Bonifacio.

Hi. My name is Kayobi Taida, and I am an assassin, no, not one of those piddly little human assassins. I'm an alien, an assassin on a galactic scale. My job is to exterminate dictators who get too big for their britches and decide that ruling one world just isn't enough. I stalk them, eliminate them, and then get paid. It's pretty easy for me, since I'm a 'swapper' what you might call a 'shape shifter' and my people are the only ones in the galaxy known to have magic power. But this isn't 'that' story.

Contained in this deceptively short volume are many, many little stories, largely in assorted scifi/fantasy/speculative fiction settings (and don't get us started on the Fairy Tales).

This is clearly Very Bad, and you should stay far away from this book.
