Книга-игра, писана с амбиция и размах, особено в игровия аспект. Баланс между познати тропи/мотиви от фантастиката и иновативни хрумвания. Нишова, но с потенциал да излезе от нишата си... ако ѝ се доверите :)

Quotes by Desislava Daskalova (?)

“Числата са мистерия, чрез която простото става сложно – повтаряше си тя и се надяваше някой ден да научи достатъчно математика, за да повярва на старата поговорка: числата са чудо, чрез което сложното става просто.”

“– Магия ли? – подсмихна се в отговор Валцер, сякаш през цялото време беше чакал да им отвърне точно на този въпрос. – Вие, които престъпяте този праг, магия всяка тука оставете. Това е наука.”
