| Ensel Und Krete | comment |
Ensel und Krete by Walter Moers is the second book in the Zamonia saga and sadly not released outside of Germany, and a pastiche on the classic German fairy tale of Hänsel und Grete.The story follows two young Fernhachens, a race of ever-cheerful Zamonian people, as they venture into the newly-open-for-tourists Great Forest and come across all kinds of weird creatures, some friendly, some not so much.The story is told by Hildegunst von Mythenmetz (known in English as Optimus Yarnspinner), who was in mentioned in The 13 ½ Lives of Captain Bluebear and then became the protagonist in The City of Dreaming Books. As usual, Walter Moers is just translating into German.On occasion, whether it's appropriate to the story or not, Mythenmetz will chime in and stop the story dead in it's tracks to go ahead and just kind of talk about whatever he feels like. He calls these Mythenmetz'sche Abschweifungen. | |

The Cynic | |
| Ensel Und Krete / int_1b70ccc6 | comment |
The Cynic: A professor from the University of Gralsund named Humri Schiggsall has invented a new kind of super-pessimism based on a glass of water The argument goes as follows: Once a student recommended just enjoying the moment, so Schiggsall replied that he was thirsty and threw the glass at the student who then had to be brought to the hospital. | |

Counting to Potato | |
| Ensel Und Krete / int_251f3ffa | comment |
Counting to Potato: Fernhachens count only in Zamonian mathematics which is based on the numbers one, two, three, four and then just continually doubling four (meaning 4, 8, 16, …). | |
