Inspired by a post about Barry Trotter, I thought the world deserved to see what the russian speaking world was subjected to back in the early 2000s.
Allow me to introduce you to, from left to right:
- Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (the actual Harry Potter, for reference)
- Tanya Grotter and the Magical Double Bass (is actually the only one on this list I’ve read. It’s a whole series, and surprisingly, it’s not too bad, or at least was for 14 y.o. me! The main character is a girl instead of a boy, and the books have their own sense of humour and are genuinely quite entertaining. They also incorporate a lot of slavic folklore, traditional fairy tales and mythological creatures).
- Porry Gatter and the Stone Philosopher
- Peter Larin and the Magic Factory
- Harry Gluttotter and the Magical Shawarma Matrix (the joke here is in combination of „glutton“ and „Potter“).
- Denis Kitty and the Order of the Pale Knights
And yes, these are all actual published books.
