A charmingly witty fantasy adventure in the world of Strange Practice, starring Dr. Greta Helsing, doctor to the undead, who must solve a dangerous medical mystery at a secret French spa for mummies.
Oasis Natrun: a private, exclusive, highly secret luxury health spa for mummies, high in the hills above Marseille, equipped with the very latest in therapeutic innovations both magical and medical. To Dr. Greta Helsing, London's de facto mummy specialist, it sounds like paradise. But when Greta is invited to spend four months there as the interim clinical director, it isn't long before she finds herself faced with a medical mystery that will take all her diagnostic skill to solve.
A peculiar complaint is spreading among her mummy patients, one she's never seen before. With help from her friends and colleagues -- including Dr. Faust (yes, that Dr. Faust), remedial psychopomps, a sleepy scribe-god, witches, demons, a British Museum curator, and the inimitable vampyre Sir Francis Varney -- Greta must put a stop to this mysterious illness before anybody else crumbles to irreparable dust...
...and before the fabric of reality itself can undergo any more structural damage.
Grave Importance is the third Dr. Greta Helsing Novel - perfect for fans of Neverwhere and V. E. Schwab.

So far working great!
Style: Gift Style, Style: Gift Style
Got this for my partner that needed an electronic wine opener to more easily open bottles. So far it is working great and making it much easier. I like the additional accessories and the look and feel of the opener. It looks great on our bar and a nice addition to our bar tool collection.

5 stars for the opener but the accessories........
Color: 5-in-1 Battery Operated Wine Set - Silver
Returned one of these because the wine sealer did not work. It wouldn't hold a vacuum.
Here's the thing. I'm not going to use that vacuum sealer and I don't care about "aerating" my wine with the included pourer. And I will SELDOM use the wine stopper because well ....... A bottle of wine having anything left in it after opening around here is like a blue moon on Christmas. What can I say.
But I just can't stand paying for something that doesn't work, even if I'll never use it.
Anyway, the wine opener itself is a champ. I've owned a bunch of wine openers. This opens bottles faster than any opener I've ever owned and that includes rechargeable openers 3 times what I paid for this opener.
It's worth every penny. We drink a fair amount of wine around here so this thing gets used a lot. I've never replaced the batteries. It's not even remotely slowing down. It just keeps popping out corks and it's been months.
Considering what this opener cost I don't see how you can go wrong with this purchase.
