If you succumb to demons of analogies, then most of all this book is like a film shot on a comic book. Rather, on a fictionalized comic book, a satire on Gothic with its vampires and who came from the underworld demons, with mortally wounded heroes, singing, like in the opera, full -blooded dying arias, and alchemist Alexander Piela, who created a pharmaceutical empire and know the secrets of the Universe. Say: where to get such a genre from us - the tradition of Gothic in Russia did not really blossom in order to give rise to the satire on itself, and the comic did not take root at all. But we walk widely - through the step. We can do that. And what they could not think about yesterday - today is. Doubts doubts? Open the book and read.
