Review title: An immersive, fully realized world.
Product review: I am a sucker for world building and mythology, and "Nightwatch" has a very fully realized world. The book is set in the modern era, in Russia, yes. But it deals with people who do not live in the same world we, the reader, do. It's a different world with different laws and regulations, different customs, different dangers. And it's a world that feels very intensely real.The characters are broadly sketched but individual, and moral quandries are thick on the ground-- not obviously at first, but more and more so as the book progresses. What seems to be a black and white divide between "good" and "evil," between "light" and "dark," becomes more and more shaded grey as events unfold.It's a book of explosions, frustration, desperate attempts at saving the world, and morality. It's well written and well translated, and I highly recomend it.
