I mondi di K.A. Teryna – autrice di spicco della fantascienza russa contemporanea – sono difficili da dimenticare: in "Medusa" siamo in una parodia del cyberpunk, potenziato da social network e gamification, in stile Black Mirror; "Krözelcikus" è un giallo che parte dal furto dell'elioforo, una macchina fotografica ritenuta illegale; "Hunky-dory" spazia dalle nanotecnologie agli studi di Vernadskij sulla noosfera, anche se alla base del racconto c'è il sacrificio e l'illuminazione.

E poi c'è chi resta, chi spera di partire un giorno dal “Terminale Terra” e chi farebbe qualunque cosa – il killer, la webstar o il clonatore – pur di realizzare il sogno di riuscire ad andarsene per sempre.
