About the book: year / Are you asking who I am? It all started when I saw a creature on a tree. Her name was Eine. She was a predator. I tasted blood and couldn't eat human food anymore. I was considered a drug addict. I was arrested for a murder I didn't commit. I had nowhere to go. The road back to people was blocked for me by my own grave and death certificate. My nature has irreversibly changed. I am not afraid of the sun, the crucifix, garlic, holy water, silver. I've killed my own kind before. And they tried to kill me too. War, betrayal, violence, pain. Rage, loneliness, despair. The only creature in the world that I love is my little sister, who calls me mom. She is a human, and I am a predator. When I was nailed to Eine’s body in the old Cairo cemetery, something passed from her to me along the iron umbilical cord. She infected me with her eternal search. She said, “Maybe you can do it.” What? I don't know. There is no glamor or gloss here. I'm far from it. There are no dragons, witches, unicorns, or elves either. I didn’t embellish anything, but I didn’t hide anything either. If it turned out tough in places, then that’s how it was. And if there’s a lump in your throat in places, that means that’s how it was too. I am Aurora Magnus, and you, most likely, would be afraid to get close to me and become my friend. You ask who I am? I am a predator, and you are a man. And to those who, after reading this, say: “It doesn’t happen,” I want to address the words of my mentor Oscar: “Human knowledge is imperfect and incomplete, and people are hostages the picture of the world that they created for themselves. The world is one big illusion. Reality is what we imagine it to be. Now you have a chance to experience a different reality... See the world as predators see it, and for a little while reading - live in it as they live».
