About the book: 2008 / "Temple" - a classic thriller, a difficult odyssey of the soul; payment of the soul for the knowledge of the truth. If “The Temple” had been published fifteen years ago, there would have been no need to explain who its author was, Igor Akimov, because at that time all young people were reading his “The Boy Who Could Fly” (a book about nature of talent). If "Temple" had been published twenty-five years ago, for readers it would have been just another book by the author of the action films "The Ballad of Those Gone on a Mission" and "Monkey Bridge". If "Temple" had been published thirty-five years ago, it would have been accepted as another book by the author of the story “Dot”, which - without exaggeration - was read by the whole country. Everyone has their own path to their Temple.
