A cute, funny story about a newbie genie who forgets (gasp! not even tricked!) to add the 'three wishes only' clause when he's summoned.

The book is not particularly long, but has two related, standalone-ish plots. Looking at the edition information on good reads, it seems like the original printing only contained the first half of the book. It's probably better this way, but it does feel like the book concludes and then unexpected starts up again.

A totally cute and very fast read. Full of humor and fast-paced and quirky. The cat is, as is only right, the best character. The lady genie and the princess are next best. I'm still in some doubt about the merchant's son's qualities being awesome but I'll roll with it.
