Another book from the literary genres series byBoris Akunin. This time it's a book for children, which appears not to strictly for kids. Elastic, grandson of Erast Fandorin - famous 19th century detective, has to deal with mentality of people from different moments of Russian history. He makes his journey to 1914 and after escaping from that year lands in Boris Godunov's times in second half of 16th century, where even being thought to be an angel he can't feel safe. Nice reading.
Not bad, the parallels easily drawn between the "dungeons and dragons" game and reality of poliics, economics, etc. are quite entertainng, especially paired with the current (cyclical) attempt to restore the "patriotic" status of the Russian events circa 1600 through film etc. Not Akunin's best book, but a definite fun one for his fans.
Не в восторге. Слишком много всего наворочено.Та же идея, но в гораздо лучшем исполнении - "Москвест" Андрея Жвалевского и Евгении Пастернак.
Добрая, милая детская сказка в стиле Булычева. Акунин как всегда на высоте.
