Самое слабое в мире чудовище

"Once in the world of humans, a monster appeared…" – this is how almost every story in the collection begins: supernatural beings emerge from nowhere on Earth and offer humans something that turns the entire modern world upside down. Are these strange monsters and demons a heavenly punishment for sins or, on the contrary, a wonderful opportunity to change life for the better? Will people be able to survive in the proposed circumstances? Will the world change after their departure or will everything remain as it was? Will these beings leave at all? These and many other questions will trouble the reader until the very last page of the book.
