Slavic Mythology A large number of people love mythology. Here, me first! 🙂 Starting from Greek, through Egyptian, Norse, to Indian, Japanese and Chinese mythology. Most often they’re in the form of fantasy tales about the relationships of heroes and gods, great wars, encounters with mythological beings, stories about the creation of the world and…
I am Legend In these times, what we want most (well, some of us) is to go outside, walk around all day and enjoy the sun, sit in some café and enjoy coffee and the hustle and bustle around us. Now, our friend Robert Neville is in such a situation. He lives in Manhattan, he…
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas – A story that breaks your heart without a single drop of blood It’s never easy when you pick up books about World War II, especially those that touch on the Holocaust. Somehow you’re not quite convinced that there will be (at least some semblance of) a happy ending…
Altered Carbon (Season 2) Okay… although my reviews are just my personal experiences and I don’t pay much attention to other people’s ratings, I have to admit I was surprised by some people’s initial (negative) impressions of the second season of “Altered Carbon,” so I somehow wanted to separate these two seasons, especially since the…

The Five Major Pieces to the Life Puzzle Do you know what Tony Robbins, Mark Victor Hansen, Jack Canfield, Brian Tracy, and T. Harv Eker all have in common? If someone thought of the recently reviewed booklet As You Think, So You Become… well, they’d be partially right, but that’s not the main point now….
Death Note If you had the power to decide whether and when another person would die, would you use it? Not to hurt or injure someone—but to kill. Would you use it to take revenge, would you become a murderer, or would you never dare to use such power? Or would you perhaps try to…
Altered Carbon Would you really like to be immortal? To live for several hundred years, to see what the future holds? To travel to different places (planets), do all sorts of things, meet all kinds of people? Sounds interesting? But what if I told you that the price of your immortality is that you won’t…
The environment (very often) likes to shape our destiny in subtle ways. Often, it’s the people closest to us. They persuade us that such circumstances, environment, life, people, the state, politics, should not be disturbed, and so on. They tell us to adapt to what surrounds us if we want a chance to (more…
