All light is drained from the world, only leaving lamps to the good. The shadows hold unrelenting evil, ready to strike whoever is "brave" enough to leave the comfort of their never draining lights. However that doesn't stop thousands from trying. Can it be possible for one human to see into the darkness and find the prophesied exit? Or will it just turn into an urban legend.

To make matters worse, it came with a minor side effect: a disease called Gold fever. In other words, people started to turn into gold. Over the course of a single day, Phoenix becomes the most hated person in the world. As the economy collapses around them, only three of his friends are willing to stay by his side.

About a certain return
The man whom all happens by accident (though, according to the said, nothing is accidental), launches the adventure with a dream which seems somehow ominous, before beginning his day as he always did. Hence the natural things change. Anyway, no matter how improbable, serious, dangerous, these events are continually harass him, it always ends with a return to his family, though looks like he forgets some details, but recovers. It is the main and stable theme of this work. I introduce you a tree. We talked about the root, look at stem and its strong branches. The hero of the book slips into parallel worlds. Is attracted, pushed, there he must to come. In the world of Mr. M. (a possible name) is creeping a... God. This secondary character grows the tree, give its strength. Although his influence is important in a subconscious world, his power is also manifested in what we consider as reality. We quickly notice that "reality" is not reality that we, who we are, feel, but beyond it happens something more unusual. Let's return to our hypothetical kabbalistic tree. In "reality", the God manifests himself mystical, through fraternities, inspirations, visions, possession, strange theories, tempting and enticing. This god that changes, transforms, his subjects, has supporters and strong opponents. The sneak of the patriarchal god in a matriarchal society cannot be done without fight. Mr. M. is not only the target of the god who wants supremacy but is discovered by a group of true light source hunters. With them he will go into a new spiritual adventure, to the knowledge of necessary truth. This goal creates and reinforces positive heroes. On top head of tree stands the Light of Truth. The light is hidden by an (almost) impenetrable dome. To breakthrough from inside is allowed a method... Further, mystical world is wasted... The hidden things are touched by specialists light. "Where are we really?" asks M. to the end, like many of us ask ourselves. Do we feel the light?Complete
