This novel is a fascinating reminder of how not far we left this, and that the true progress that needs to be achieved is to know ourselves. ” - Words Without Borders
"Kugoku ... considers supernatural phenomena as a product of ideas owning society and the limitations of human knowledge. In other words, ghosts exist - because we think that they exist. ” - Japan Today

The classic plot in the Honkaku style to the edges is saturated with traditional Japanese mysticism and is decorated with a unique pair of detectives - the author of the author. Imagine Sherlock Holmes, expelling the demons, and Watson as a devil’s lawyer ... " - Vladimir Khoros, responsible editor of the novel
