Here's the problem with "unique" gifts: if you can add it to a cart, thousands of other people did too. The engraved whiskey stones, the star map, the funny socks. They're nice. They're just not unique.

So we set a stricter bar. A gift only counts as truly unique if it passes three tests.

The 3 tests of a truly unique gift

1. Only one existsNot one of a thousand. One, made for him.
2. It's made from what you knowHis habits, his sayings, his people. Things no store could know.
3. He keeps itNot used up, not worn out, not forgotten by spring.

A real novel where he's the main character

MagicBook by Tooxt

It's the one thing he couldn't buy himself: a printed, 180-page novel starring him, built from his habits, his job, his catchphrases and the little things only you know. His face is on the cover. His name is on the spine as the author.

You choose the kind of story. A comedy that roasts his golf swing, a spy thriller, a murder mystery, a sci-fi adventure, or the story of his life. It doesn't have to be a joke. It has to be him.

  • ✓You see his cover before you pay. Upload one photo and the cover appears in a couple of minutes, so there's no guessing whether it looks like him.
  • ✓Nobody else can give it. It's written from your answers, so no two books are the same.
  • ✓It stays on the shelf. People keep books with their name on them. Nobody re-gifts their own novel.
  • ✓Paperback or hardcover, with an optional dedication from you on the first page.

No. Pick a comedy, a thriller, a mystery, a sci-fi or fantasy story, or the story of his life. You decide the tone.

What do I need to make it?
