It's hard to open a book about distant realms and find something new in it. Perhaps André Ricardo Aguiar's idea is not original, I don't know. But that's pretty fun, that is. He decided to describe a series of kings and their reigns, each with a very particular characteristic, which draws a text that is, at the very least, interesting, if not funny. I guarantee you have not seen the same.
In small reinstatements, there was Ataxerxes, the double, who had everything in two until he got tired of being two and put his brother in his place, Ataxerxes, the only one. There was King Bó, the diminutive one, who was actually called Bonifacio, but he liked everything in a small size, even his name. He had Epaminondas, the stutterer, who, unfortunately, had that long name just to stutter and embarrass himself. He had Otilio, the self-invader, so fond of conquests and wars that he insisted on conquering his own kingdom until he got sick with the idea. So, follow other kings: Dubious, the indecisive, Leocadio, the tamer, Aristeu, the glutton, Godofredo, the collector… And you know what's cool? Not all kings do well in the end.
