About the book: 2008 / Since the time of Babylon, members of the Order of the Tower have not given up hope of uniting humanity, freeing it from following God’s plan, giving them their own, independent fate from higher powers. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. Conquerors invariably fail. What force has opposed all the great conquerors throughout history? Why has no one ever managed to create a World Empire? Napoleon Bonaparte was warned that a similar fate awaited him if he failed to snatch an unusual weapon - the Book of Fate - from the hands of its bearers. Once upon a time, Egyptian priests managed to save the Book of Fate from the hordes of Alexander the Great and took it with them to India. Since then, the roads of the world have been pounded by caravans of eternal gypsy wanderers - bearers of this Book. This tribe can predict fate and have other mystical abilities. And if he hides something in the camp, no one will ever find it!
