Simo reviewed Helmet of Horror by Виктор Пелевин

Interesting story about myths and human mind. The book is about several aliases discussing in a chatroom about how to escape a labyrint occupied by minotaur, but the discussion is more philosophical than practical. I believe that a reader more acquainted with greek myths, or myths in general, could have gotten more out of the book. For me, the book was entertaining but it did not provoke neither thoughts nor emotions.
The book was written in the form of chatroom conversation and therefore a fast read.
