The second novel in the author’s new cycle "The March of the Anonymous". With the knight-crusader Konstantin Polb and his adventures after being thrown into a parallel— and, as it turns out during the plot, the main with respect to other worlds—world called "Life," you’ve already been introduced. Now another hero steps onto the stage. He is a student obsessed with games—and thanks to that becomes a client of doctors. A psychiatrist orders the young man suffering from a disintegration of consciousness to keep a diary, which he diligently begins to do. Only now he has to do it in that same world of "Life" where he ends up under strange circumstances. Choosing for his game a very original race—the Great Orr—an initiate of the new reality is going to show how real pros play, for whom "stats" and character development branches are calculated with all the meticulousness. But, as we already know, this world is not quite a game, and the hero’s adventures take an unexpected turn—linking his path with the events of the first book in the cycle.
