What's the most severe example of a fake version of a book you've ever seen? in c/[email protected]

The first Don Quixote book was so popular it spawned a lot of fake sequels. Cervantes killed off Don Quixote in the second book to preclude any more copycats. That's what I remember anyhow from the preface of a paperback edition from way back.

One of the noblest and saddest characters in one of the most cruel stories ever written.

As I recall it was longaniza, cucumber, and carrots.

Yeah, I should have taken a cross-sectional cut to show what was inside. Next time....

I don't know if this will fully meet your requirements, but my combination, which I'm happy with, is Moon Reader Pro on my Android devices and Ubooquity on my server.

Moon Reader has a Sync to WebDAV option but I haven't needed to use it. If you're not inclined to pay for an ebook reader software, there is also Librera which is free.

What 90's movie or media trope would be great as a stranger things style show? in c/[email protected]

Any of the 90s horror anthology shows. Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Friday the 13th: The Series heck even X-Files and Buffy. I don't think we've had a decent horror anthology show in recent years. Black Mirror is less horror than just plain meanness sometimes.
