My isoptin mood can't be call isoptin led lousy, but it's isoptin s odd. I toil mysel isoptin lf along the clubs' isoptin ' buildings. Throug isoptin gh the barred window isoptin ws of the Martial Ar isoptin rts club I can see isoptin the fragile built isoptin t Eastern looking g isoptin guy demonstrating so isoptin ome complicated mo isoptin oves. In the open ai isoptin ir type cinema calle isoptin ed 'Movies' the impo isoptin osing man gestures isoptin energetically stand isoptin ding before the scre isoptin een.

The game isoptin e menu had appeare isoptin ed on the stone wall isoptin l before him and he isoptin e pushed the shotgun isoptin n's barrel into it isoptin with a scream. isoptin The illusion di isoptin issipated, he was s isoptin sitting by the pea isoptin acefully droning c isoptin computer, his eyes isoptin watered, the keybo isoptin oard under his stiff isoptin f fingers totally isoptin ruined. The key he isoptin e ing in "Rainbow" isoptin " with some guys, d isoptin drinking beer with s isoptin smoked fish...

Wit isoptin th smoked fish? isoptin - Well, just for isoptin r a company.. - Man isoptin niac sighed, - And w isoptin well, possibly it w isoptin was too far to get t isoptin to his plate, so... isoptin looks like I jerked isoptin d a bit in reality. isoptin When I exited - g isoptin gee, the mouse's wir isoptin re is bitten off!

Half a minute isoptin e - and I'm over the isoptin ere. The thre isoptin ead ends at the cres isoptin st of the city wall isoptin l.

Of isoptin f course, the empty isoptin y can that I threw o isoptin out into the street isoptin in virtuality, is n isoptin not there. Well, le isoptin et's eliminate the d isoptin differences. M isoptin My hair were damp wi isoptin ith perspiration, I isoptin wiped them with a s isoptin shirt that was scat isoptin ttered on the chair isoptin r, sat by the comp isoptin puter, checked the isoptin cable of the vi isoptin irtual suit that co isoptin onnects it with the isoptin e computer's deep-bo isoptin oard.

Labyrinth of reflections ________________________________________ * Yuri Kalmykov. Translators notes * About the Author: Sergey Lukjanenko, 30, is one of the today's most popular Russian Sci-Fi writers. His first works were published in 1988. Currently his bibliography includes more than 40 titles of novels and short stories. The Author defines his genre as the "hard action science fiction", but all his works also have a very well defined philosophical aspect. The novel offered to your attention was written in 1997 and became the real 'cult book' of the Russian Internet. Sergey is married, he lives in Moscow. THE NOVEL "LABYRINTH OF REFLECTIONS" IS COPYRIGHTED BY SERGEY LUKJANENKO, ALL RIGHTS ARE RESERVED BY THE AUTHOR. ANY COMMERCIAL USE OF THE NOVEL'S TEXT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED. Several notes for the reader: 1). My English sucks. So it was obviously way too presumptuous of me to try to make a translation like this. It was my love to this book only that made me to venture into this adventure. ;-) I was hoping that this novel is really worth your kind attention (despite my ugly English?). 2). Some opinions expressed in this book by the main or other characters, as well as some words/terms used, might be considered offensive to some Western readers. In fact, one such situation was even showed closer to the end of the novel itself. The concept of "PC" (aka 'Political Correctness') does not really exist in Russia which fact IMHO makes the life much easier and slightly reduces the amount of stupidity that inevitably presents in this life. Despite that, I definitely had to use the 'softened' terms in my translation in order not to outrage the people (not too much at least). But of course, something might have still leaked out. Please consider yourselves warned. 3). FIDO Some more confusion can be caused by Lukjanenko's technical details and descriptions of the Net due to one more fact: he writes from the point of view of the person who was once the FIDOnet member. Also it seems that Sergey himself was mostly affiliated with FIDO at the time of this book's writing. The principles of FIDO's system organization differ from the ones of the Internet. I never was FIDO member, so I know very little. In general, it's free, amateurs' network that allows its members to exchange emails and files. FIDO uses its own proprietary protocol. Special gateways are used to exchange emails with the Internet. Look at www.fidonet.org for more details... But be prepared to get back not the homepage, but some HTML code. {G} The guys have forgot to put the {HTML} tag into the code of their main page... OOPS. 4). The names. The same name in Russian usually can have several forms, reflecting the attitude of the one who pronounces the name to the one named. The number of these forms is as far as I can judge, much bigger than in English. That's why in my translation I preferred to retain the original rules of forming such names and to provide this note. Another important reason is that the Russian name changed according to the rules of doing so in English would sound ridiculous (maybe for me only, as I'm Russian... ;-) ), not mentioning that it's not always possible to do this with Russian names at all. Example: John - Johnny. Now try to do the same with, say, my name: Yuri. Yup... My point exactly. Below is the example of how the first name of the main character can be 'bent'. The same often happens to other names in the book. For inexperienced reader it might be confusing, so I apologize... Russia *is* confusing by definition, so bear with it. :-) Leonid - the complete name. Lenia (should be read roughly as Lyo-nee-aa; don't pronounce 'double lettered' sounds as too long ones though) - this is slightly diminutive, friendly form used by relatives and friends. Lenechka (Lyo-nee-chka) - a "pet-name" form, sometimes also used with sarcasm, depending on the context. Lenchik - "pet-name"/unceremonious address. Len'ka ( here ' means softening of the previous sound, 'n' in this name sounds like 'n' in the word 'change') - Unceremonious address, a bit slighting. Often used by close friends without any offensive context. ... and so on. No more forms are used in the book, so I'd better not confuse you any more. Another trick is how the names are formed n general. In particular, the concept of the middle name in Russia. It is not 'given', but rather is the father's name. To be used as a middle name, special endings are attached: -ovich, -evich for man's middle name (yeah, they are gender specific!), -ovna, evna for female's middle name. Examples: Petrovich Alekseevich - men's P
