This is the son of the famous Leo Tolstoy (War & Peace, Anna Karenina etc.) making his own bid for fame with what is claimed to be the first Russian sci-fi novel. This makes it a bit of a collector's item in itself, though the story is good, well written and illustrated, though the style may be a little alien (forgive the pun) to those not familiar with Russian prose.
