About the book: year / What is our world? A collection of atoms? Computer model? Or a dream of the Supreme Mind? Mark never thought about these questions until he began to dream about another world. In that world the sun never sets, people know neither nights nor hours and consider mystical phenomena to be the norm. And people like Mark, aliens from another world, have also become the norm there. The same norm as endless wars and civil strife, behind which every now and then there is the Black and Red figure of the Great Grandmaster. On his way, Mark meets Black, an alien and old resident of the dream world. Unwittingly, Mark is drawn into the lifelong struggle of his new comrade - the fight against the Black-Red Cardinal.
