# The Amateur Cracksman

The Amateur Cracksman is an 1899 short story collection by E. W. Hornung. It was published in the UK by Methuen & Co., London, and in the US by Scribner's, New York. Many later editions (T. Nelson & Sons, 1914; University of Nebraska Press, 1976; et al.) expand the title to Raffles: The Amateur Cracksman. Some editions such as Penguin Books, 1948, retitle the collection simply, Raffles.
It was the original short story collection by Hornung, featuring his most famous character, A. J. Raffles, a gentleman thief in late Victorian Great Britain. The book was very well received and spawned three follow-ups: two more short story collections, The Black Mask (1901) and A Thief in the Night (1904), as well as a full-length novel, Mr. Justice Raffles (1909).

## Overview

A national sporting hero, Arthur J. Raffles is a prominent member of London society. As a cricketer, he regularly represents England in Test matches. He uses this as cover to commit a number of burglaries, primarily stealing valuable jewelry from the elite of London, for thrill and profit. He is assisted in this by his friend, the younger Harry "Bunny" Manders, who idealizes Raffles as a sportsman. Both men are constantly under the surveillance of Inspector Mackenzie of Scotland Yard, who is always thwarted in his attempts to pin the crimes on Raffles.

# The Billions of Arsène Lupin

The Billions of Arsène Lupin is a detective novel by Maurice Leblanc about gentleman thief Arsène Lupin. The novel appeared in 29 daily serials, illustrated by Jean Oberle in Auto from 10 January to 11 February 1939, then published in volume 16 in Hachette (Collection "The Enigma" No. 13) in November 1941, with illustrations by André Pécoud.
The Hachette edition of 1941, a story that has not been written, in fact, beyond 1939, is the only edition in 1987 before insertion of this ultimate story of Arsène Lupin in the collection of Francis Lacassin (Volume 4, published in 1987). Thus, there are two posthumous editions. It is likely that illness and death had prevented the author of completing this novel; the family has refused for 46 years to a second issue, to respect the memory of the novelist. "If not adhere to this rule is to avoid compromising the completeness of our edition" 2.
The Hachette edition 1941 is incomplete: one of the 29 operas "L'Auto", n ° 23 of February 3, 1939, was omitted by mistake. Error repeated in the reissue Robert Laffont 1987: Volume 4 of "Mouthpieces" collection is similarly amputated.

## Summary

Patricia, a young American assistant James Allermy Mac is very popular with her boss. The latter, based in the United States, is founder of "Hello-Police", a tabloid that chronicles crime, and plans for his invaluable secretary a great professional future. He is aware that the pretty woman was seduced and abandoned, to his great regret, by his own son, who finally made a marriage more in line with his fortune. As a result of this connection, Patricia found herself a single mother, but the presence of Rudolph, a young child, gives her the courage to face life. Another event, however, is about to give another twist to her life.
One evening, on the premises of the company itself, she is attacked by an individual called "The Rough." She is saved in extremis by a man of strength and reassuring impassivity she does not know, but whom the bandit, astonished at his prowess, asks to her surprise: "Would you happen to be Arsene Lupin by chance? "
Why was the famous gentleman thief in America? Why, after a mysterious nocturnal meeting of eleven men, were Mac Allermy and his attorney murdered with knife in the heart? What's in the brown leather briefcase stolen from Mac Allermy the night of his death, and now owned by "The Rough", who speaks of an immense fortune?
Fortune! The magic word to make appear—and disappear—Lupin. Patricia instinctively departs for France (the boat trip will be hectic) because it was the intended destination of her late boss, whom she now wishes to avenge. It is also the stomping ground of an agent well armed to handle such a complicated and dangerous line of business, and who gave her at their first meeting, a silver whistle: "In case of danger, whistle without stopping. I will come ... "

Neil Young of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review and wrote that it "passes muster strictly as a showcase for Hurt and Dance." Wendy Ide of Screen Daily also gave the film a positive review and wrote "So effortlessly good is Hurt, however, that he rather outclasses the rest." James Luxford from Picturehouse Spotlight wrote that That Good Night, "is an absorbing British drama that explores issues that with resonate with everyone who sees it. Featuring performances that will inspire conversations long after the credits have rolled, it is a fitting tribute to one of our most instinctive talents."
CineVue's Jamie Neish rated the film 2/5, and wrote "The film never feels truly worthy of Hurt's talents and doesn't utilise his abilities as well as it could have done." The Times also gave it 2/5, and stated "It's more mawkish than melancholic."
# The Chicago Sessions

| PopMatters | 9/10 |
| Slant Magazine | |
| Uncut | 8/10 |
The Chicago Sessions received a score of 84 out of 100 on review aggregator Metacritic based on eight critics' reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". American Songwriter's Lee Zimmerman wrote that Crowell's "skills are, naturally, apparent as always, and given his decision to put Jeff Tweedy in the producer's chair, another exceptional album is all but assured", elaborating that he is "in prime form, and the ten songs that make up the set list hold to the high standard he's known for". Mark Deming of AllMusic felt that enlisting Tweedy as producer results in "one of Crowell's most purely enjoyable albums, capturing him in excellent form as a writer and a performer" as well as an album that "sounds loose without being the least bit sloppy".
Paste's Eric R. Danton described it as "the work of a singer and songwriter with nothing left to prove, which means that Crowell can simply enjoy himself" as he "has no thematic agenda with these songs". Reviewing the album for PopMatters, Michael Elliott also acclaimed Tweedy's approach to production, saying that Crowell sounds "comfortable, confident, and at ease throughout The Chicago Sessions while gifting us some of his best material in years" and concluded "that both his pen and voice are still as vital as ever".
Jeremy Winograd of Slant Magazine opined that Tweedy "wields a light touch as producer and accompanist, mostly keeping Crowell within his acoustic country-folk and boogie-based wheelhouse, abetted by simple, crisply recorded arrangements". Glide Magazine's Doug Collette called it "so unassuming an offering it may very well sneak onto more than a few 'Best of '23' lists, this LP certainly deserves such placement. Its forty-some minutes contain more than a few of those deeply stirring moments only truly great records possess".
Uncut felt that "at 72 years of age, Crowell remains both a vital link to Van Zandt's classic sensibility and an enduring force whose vitality shows few signs of waning". Mojo stated that "beneath Tweedy's twinkling lights, Crowell wears each look like a favourite old coat – familiar, easy, and pocked by stains and rips that remind him of all he's seen".

| AllMusic | |
| Jambands: The Complete Guide to the Players, Music, & Scene | |
In a review for AllMusic, Jesse Jarnow called the album "an improv-laced disc of nuanced fusion and jam band funk," and wrote: "the music itself is comparatively low key. If only it were more original."
Writer Dean Budnick stated: "The results are more varied than the Peacemakers' debut, and the group certainly kicks it a bit more."
Phil DiPietro of All About Jazz noted that Burbridge's "abilities and acumen as a jazz player and improviser are right there with the greatest, especially when taking the jazzy vamp into absolutely uncharted harmonic and chops-laden territory." He commented: "One of the greatest electric bassists of all time, Oteil Burbridge has finally made the recording that does his music most justice... It... should go a long way toward propelling him and the Peacemakers to well-deserved increased notoriety on the worldwide stage."
In an article for Jambands.com, John Patrick Gatta wrote that the album is marked by "an atmosphere of some late night music with the lights turned down low, beer in hand," and remarked: "It's as much about chilling out... as it is about jazz fusion and jamband in its sharp exploration of the melodies... the intent is clear — crisp interplay rules each track with the weaving of bass / guitar / drums / violin / keyboards."

# The Fated Sky

The Fated Sky is the title of a historical novel for young adults by English author Henrietta Branford, first published in Great Britain in 1996 by Hodder Children's Books. Set in Norway and Iceland during the Viking period, it depicts the stirring but bleak existence of Dark Age Europeans at a time of insecurity and constant threat from raiders. The story follows a young woman called Ran from the time she loses her mother in a wolf attack, and a subsequent attempt to kill her as a human sacrifice, to her escape with a blind harper, Toki, to a new life in Iceland. Even there however the threat of sudden violence hangs over small and isolated farming communities. The book does not dwell on bloodshed but is honest about the hardship, unpredictability and cruelty of the period, showing even sympathetic central characters as not immune to painful death. Moral choices are also at times difficult.
The book was noted as one of the ten best "romance" novels for young adults in 2000.
