This are books of my childhood. I loved each and everyone of Them. I have been astouned by finding out how many books (including Alice space biologists series ) did this very productive Russian author wrote. Compare how many had been unfurtunatly Published in my country ( Czech Republic back than Czechoslowakia ) space biology, history, alternative history, religions and mysteries of all kind. The reader Gets already slight Taste of the richness and geniality of the author in this " childerns space biology stories. I hope still to be somehow able to find and read as much books of this author as possible.
Pestré, ľahkým perom písané príhody Alice - dievčatka z budúcnosti a jej kamarátov z biologickej stanice na Gogoľovom bulvári. V mene vedy (a dobrodružstva) navštívia dávnu minulosť i vzdialené svety, privlečú domov pitekantropa, zapletú sa do rytierskeho turnaja, konverzujú so zvieratami sebauvedomelej planéty, alebo zachraňujú z pazúrov vesmírnych pirátov svet mierumilovných obyvateľov pripomínajúcich mačky. Na dnešného človeka pôsobí prostredie knihy retrofuturisticky, evokuje vo mne obrazy v štýle doktora Who (s tým rozdielom, že Alica to všetko zvládne aj bez doktora). Moje deti (6 a 9 rokov) hltajú krátke kapitolky jednu za druhou a hrajú sa na vesmírnych cestovateľov. Najzábavnejšia im pripadá časť, kde sa Paška prezlieka za pilagejskú turistku.
A good science fiction for kids and teens. Some stories are better, others are weaker. There are many hints and allusions to the author's anti-soviet/anti-communist views. It's sad that there is no English translation.
