The stranger

Summary: "Max Frei is a twenty-something loser - a big sleeper (that is during the day; at night he can't sleep a wink), a hardened smoker; and an uncomplicated glutton and loafer. But then he gets lucky. He contacts a parallel world in his dreams, where magic is a daily practice. Once a social outcast, he's now known in his new world as the "unequalled Sir Max." He's a member of the Department of Absolute Order, formed by a species of enchanted secret agents; his job is to solve cases more extravagant and unreal than one could imagine - a journey that will take Max down the winding paths of this strange and unhinged universe - or is it?
