Wonderful book. Very interesting, the presented idea of mind control is very fascinating, though not so much realistic, but it's fiction, isn't it. I was slightly disappointed by the ending, but not as much as to change my opinion of the book.

Книга мне очень сильно понравилась. Александрийские Романович придумал отличный сюжет, постарался логически объяснить необычное явление, вокруг которого был построен этот сюжет и самое главное для меня - он раскрыл всех персонажей: полностью передал их душевное состояние, пояснил причины их действий и объяснил их точку зрения.

Замечательная книга

Роман загалом про можливість передачі думок на відстані. На цьому фоні відбуваються різні події, інспіровані злим генієм - ученим-винахідником Штірнером. Загадкові смерті та убивства, фінансова криза, багатство Штірнера. І лише радянський учений може подолати зло...

Siužetas gana nuspėjamas ir meilės istorijos daro jį per daug sentimentalų. Iš pradžių buvo keista, kad rusų rašytojo romane beveik visi pagrindiniai veikėjai vokiečiai, bet gal dėl to, kad tarybinio blogiečio nebūtų praleidusi cenzūra. Yra ir trečiaeilis veikėjas rusas, aišku, gerietis, ir išradimą Maskvoje panaudoja gerais tikslais, ne taip kaip kapitalistiniai veikėjai. Aha, patikėjom.
Šiaip gana įdomi novelė, rašytojas moka rašyti, tik kaip didelė dalis to meto rašytojų, atrodo labiau nori aprašyti savo protų valdymo teoriją, negu kurti įdomų siužetą. Geriau būtų rašęs ne novelę, o apsakymą.

Unfortunately, a large part of my reading of Russian books is how well I am able to understand them and this was the perfect level. The ending wasn’t as strong as I had hoped, but the beginning and climax were very strong

Gave me enormous imagination! Belyaev is truly genius... I didn't think about brain massages before, i consider it's real. Maybe Belyaev have already achieved that , but who knows??

Who would've thought that an old sci-fi novel about mind control would describe my struggle with mental illness so well?

Belyaev was one of the first 'grown-up' authors I read in my childhood. I cried at Ichthyander's tragic fate and sympathised Ariel, wondered about the things I could ask Professor Dowell and was disgusted at Bayley's wickedness. This was a very nostalgic read, comforting and familiar. Frankly, it made me wish I were back to being a 9 year old, reading sneakily at night under the blanket.

(also the last chapter was boring, unnecessary and just bad. I wish I had skipped reading the last few pages. A disappointing ending to an otherwise good book)
