Dark side

Dark Vassals of Glenke Tavala

“You know, Sir Nightmare, I calculated that you already owe me a huge amount,” Melifaro said dreamily. “I feed your many wives every day in the most expensive taverns of Echo, sometimes even twice a day - and note: all three! Although one would be enough for me. At least for starters. But she stubbornly clings to her sisters’ scabs. These young ladies, you see, seem to think that there is nothing worse than being alone with me, even in a well-lit, crowded room. They have pretty good ideas about my upbringing, I can imagine... In a word, fork out your cash!

- What about the shit on the shovel?!

Until now, it seemed to me that I had already become accustomed to all the antics of my “bright half”. But I did not expect such phantasmagoric impudence even from him!

- Ugh, how ugly! Shame on you to offer me poop on a scoop, Your Majesty! – Melifaro squeaked in the tone of a young schoolgirl.

- It’s okay, you’ll survive!.. No, just think, not only are you trying to cuckold me - and mind you, completely to no avail! – you still demand that I finance this dubious event myself... Be grateful that I didn’t die on the spot after your senseless statement!

- Thank you. To be honest, a corpse in the office is not exactly what I need right now. It's too much trouble, and I'm going on a date.

- With whom? – I asked sternly. - Just don’t try to cheat on my wives. This is a matter of honor for our royal family!

“With whom, with whom…” Melifaro grumbled. - Guess three times!

- Exactly, that from three... By the way, I still don’t know: which of them are you actually courting?

- What difference does it make to you? You still can’t tell them apart!

– Imagine, I can already distinguish... Wait, I’ll try to guess. Lady Haylah has the same disgusting taste as you. A few days ago I saw her in such a bright crimson loohi, you would burst with envy! But otherwise she is a serious young lady. So I don't think... Right?

- Right for now. Although a person who prefers clothes the color of all shades of fresh cat shit should stand quietly in the corner and remain silent in a rag, and not criticize other people's tastes... Wait, wait, where did you see her?

This miracle of nature still had the audacity to depict an expression of Moorish jealousy on its beautiful face!

- How do you mean “where”?! At home. In addition to the beautiful queens, by the way, my favorite dog lives there.

“Oh, okay then,” Melifaro sighed with clear relief.

– Why are you really worried if you’re still trying to seduce someone else? – I was surprised.

- Because the three of them hang around everywhere. I told you... Besides, I have not yet gotten used to the idea that you distinguish between them.

– Well, yes... Okay, don’t interfere with my thought processes. As for Lady Kenlech, she seems to me a rather mysterious creature. She’s kind of quiet, and has a heavy look, like our boss’s... No, I don’t think that’s exactly what would suit you! That leaves Helvi. The young lady loves to giggle, and in general it seems to me that it was she who you periodically glanced sideways at, languishing with passion. Right?

– You’ll manage! – Melifaro made such a face that any first-grader bully would die of envy. – You didn’t turn out to be a clairvoyant!

- Is it true? – I was upset.

- True true. Although you are not mistaken about Lady Kenlech’s heavy gaze. There is such a thing... - Melifaro jumped off the table on which he had been solemnly sitting all this time, dangling his legs. - In general, it’s like this: I’m mortally tired of you, and therefore I’m leaving anyway. I’ll go and try again to seduce one of your wives: what if it works?..You know, I’m gradually beginning to understand that you have vilely bewitched them, in the most treacherous way. Normal girls should love me, this is the basic law of nature!

“You don’t take into account that in the Hollow Lands there are completely different ideas about male beauty,” I smiled. – What are we going to do with you and me, these girls are dying of unrequited love for General Bubuta, all three of them!

“It’s funny to you...” Melifaro grumbled, meticulously straightening the folds of his new loohi in front of the mirror, brightly green, like a garden bed at the beginning of spring.

However, he also found it funny, and how!

In the end, this hero-lover finally left his own office. I followed like a bullet: a delightful idea suddenly appeared in my head. To implement it, I needed Sir Kofa Yoh - urgently!

Our Master Hearer was just leisurely leaving Juffin's office. Couldn't have come at a better time!

- Who did you confuse me with, boy? – he inquired condescendingly. – You look at me as the girl of your dreams. I never thought that the girl of your dreams could have my figure!

I grunted quietly in surprise: this sound was supposed to correspond to laughter.

- No, as for the girl - thank you! As for the dream, you’ve hit the nail on the head. Kofa, I desperately need your Ucumbian cloak. Just for a couple of hours...

- Yes please! – Sir Kofa shrugged. “I didn’t think that you were going to beat my bread, instead of peacefully nodding off in the office!” As far as I know, even Juffin has no other plans for your workday yet. How did you end up living like this? You don’t value your reputation as the most desperate lazy person of the Secret Investigation at all!

- So the most desperate... But I don’t need your bread for nothing. Honestly, I'm going to have fun. Perhaps, like never before in life!

- Come on, come on! Then tell me. It’s my own fault: there was no point in intriguing me like that!

– Well, what intrigues there!.. It’s just that Melifaro once again went on a date with my inseparable trinity. Listen, I simply have to admire this spectacle! But if they know about my presence, I will get about a thousand times less pleasure. And in this cloak no one will notice me - long live the sinister magic of the islands of the Ucumbian Sea!

“Yes, I think that would be fair,” my colleague nodded. “You were puffing so hard when you and I were chasing his kidnappers... I have nothing against it: violating official instructions for personal purposes is the basics of our work!”

- Thank you! – I blurted out, carefully accepting the shabby piece of gray fabric, which could turn me into the most inconspicuous creature of our beautiful World.

“You’re welcome,” Kofa grinned. – This is not my personal toy, but the state property of the Department of Complete Order... If it’s very funny, you’ll tell me!

“I think it will be,” I promised.

Then, just in case, I looked into Juffin’s office: what if it turns out that the boss can’t live any longer without admiring my face, and I’m hanging around who knows where!

“I can,” said Sir Juffin Halley, without looking up from the stack of writing tablets cluttering his desk.

- What can you do? – I was taken aback.

- A hole in the sky above you! Not only are you aware of the blatant disgrace that is going on in my head, you also keep track of the wording. I feel terribly embarrassed: I’m probably thinking with grammatical errors?!

“Not always,” this incredible guy yawned. “It’s just that, according to my calculations, today is the time for you to be properly surprised, at least by something.” As far as I know, you haven't done this useful exercise for a couple of dozen days. Just look, you will completely relax and imagine yourself as a normal person with a successful personal life... You can go have fun with a calm heart, Sir Max. Holy cause! All the same, I have no chance of leaving here before midnight: the year has just begun, and there’s nowhere to throw away other people’s writings!

- Something interesting? – I asked curiously.

- If only... Reports of the Most Honorable Chiefs of the Secret Investigation of our blessed provinces. Well, what could be interesting there, pray tell!.. And don’t linger on the threshold, save your skin while I’m good. Otherwise, now I’ll change my mind and put this misfortune on your fragile shoulders.

- Everything, everything, everything, I understood, I got scared, disappeared!

I flew out of the office like a bullet. I really should have hurry up so I don't have to look for these fab four all over the city later.

I left my vehicle in a small cozy courtyard, a few blocks from the Shaggy House: the magical properties of the Ucumbian cloak do not extend to the bulky vehicles of its owner. And when you're going to keep an eye on one of the Secret Detectives, no precautions can hurt. I strongly suspected that, even clouded by passion, Sir Melifaro's head was quite capable of some sound conclusions.

From there I went on foot to my royal residence. Actually, I lost a lot of time, but I hoped that the sisters still like to dress for a long time and tastefully.

Quotes from the book “The Dark Side” by Max Fry

How ironic you have become, it’s driving you crazy.

The craziest fantasy at any moment may turn out to be the only reality left at your disposal.

I love absolutely everything you do. Watching you is like watching cartoons.

The door slammed, and the furry paws of Druppi, squealing with delight, landed on my shoulders with all their might. Almost a hundredweight of happy and completely untrained white fur fell on me. A moment later, the pie and I were already lying on the floor. The dog considered it his duty to clearly demonstrate his selfless love to me by methodically licking my nose, boots and ears - everything that came under his tongue. He pointedly ignored the pie for now.
“I’m starting to regret my good deed,” I moaned, trying to dodge the wet black tongue. – You were so small, quiet and nice... Sit! Calm down!
I am, of course, the Executor, and my words, as it recently turned out, acquire the power of powerful spells on the Dark Side. But for my dog, these very words remain just a chaotic set of meaningless sounds. Therefore, I had to endure his friendly outpourings for a few more minutes.
In the end, Druppi finally removed his heavy paws from my chest. But it’s not because I’m such a great trainer, it’s just that the dog finally paid attention to the pie. I swallowed it in one sitting, carefully licked the remnants from my Death Robe and began looking around for more.
“Your dog looks a lot like you,” Lonley-Lockley remarked.
- When did I say hello to you like that? – I asked, picking up an overturned chair.
“What else was missing,” he grinned. “But the similarities are still there.” When you appear in a room or simply in someone's life, it is very difficult to calmly go about your business. And it is absolutely impossible to force yourself to pay attention to anything else.

I stopped short because I could not formulate the elusive thought.

The trouble is that the real truth always lies on the other side of words, in an incomprehensible region, somewhere in the middle between what is said and what is hidden. Therefore, the answer to your question does not fit into an ordinary “yes” or an ordinary “no”.

The most evil sorcerers come from the most frightened boys.

There is not a single successful human life, Max,” Juffin said unexpectedly seriously. “It’s just that among people there are specimens who are stupid enough to consider themselves lucky.”

Let's turn away. If you look intensely into the eyes of a miracle, it may become confused and not happen - simply because human eyes are unaccustomed to miracles.

So it happened, Max. This phrase would make an excellent epigraph for any human life, don’t you think?

I would call Max Fry a kind of dessert in the world of literature, a delicious treat that never gets boring. Just imagine, yesterday I wanted chocolate cupcakes. I ate them with great pleasure, and then I realized that I couldn’t do it anymore, I needed to take a break from sweets. But a little time will pass, and you will want sweets again. This always happens. It becomes boring, but not boring. It's the same with Fry's books. You read his sagas about the fearless Max, and then you realize that it’s time to get distracted by another author. This is exactly what I did after reading the first three works of the series. While doing household chores, we are happy to be distracted by tea and cookies, a telephone conversation or a cigarette. These few minutes allow us to unwind and gain new energy. When we get tired of sitting at home, we go on a trip, take our minds off our problems, and then come back cheerful and joyful. Same thing with my “book vacations.” Having put Fry aside for a while, I was glad to return to him and look at my favorite characters with fresh eyes. I truly like Sir Max. True, his behavior is a little infuriating - he eats, drinks, and sleeps. But I’m like that myself, to be honest, especially on weekends. In this sense, I am perhaps a serious competitor for him. I don’t know why people write meaningful reviews of such works. I don’t want to spoil them at all; there’s no point in ruining the magic of the Echo world. After such a book, the cockroaches in my head insistently demand: “One more dose of Fry, more, more!” And this whim is impossible to resist. And why, because my feelings completely correspond to the emotions of cockroaches. I think they would do a much better job of writing without the “spoilers.” Today many people prefer to listen to audiobooks. In general, I have nothing against it. This is very convenient, it gives your eyes a rest, you can do something else at the same time, or just lie down and relax. But this trick didn’t work with Fry. When I tried to listen to an audiobook, it always seemed to me that some details were escaping me. And how to write out witty quotes? Fry’s world turned out to be special, very cozy and homely, you don’t want to leave it at all. It’s a pity that I discovered this writer only at the age of 19, and then completely by accident. But on the other hand, this is more of an adult fairy tale than a children's fairy tale. So, my dears, there is one simple secret in the recipe for delicious reading. The dish needs to be dosed so that there is no cloying or lumps of monotony. It is better to submit in paper format. And, of course, with a dozen delicious chocolate cupcakes!


In the fourth book of the series, entitled “The Dark Side,” the veil of several secrets related to the appearance of Echo Max in the world is lifted for the reader. The story itself takes on dynamic turns. Max finds himself on the Dark Side and is amazed to discover new aspects of himself, feeling a power that he could not even imagine before. The “overly lively” character becomes someone wiser. He's no longer going with the flow, and that's inspiring. The hero changes, develops, and with him the wonderful world of the book grows. The author's style, as always, is a delight. Simple things are described deliciously, and subtle subtexts are skillfully woven into a fascinating plot, so there is food for thought. And I love it. The feeling from this book is very warm, as if I met a good friend!


I was surprised to realize that I really missed Sir Max. I finished the previous book more than six months ago, but I only found the time to continue reading now! And I realized that I really missed this amazing world. Fry’s books turn out to be somehow cozy, it’s difficult to describe my impressions in any other way. Although they are simply teeming with otherworldly evil creatures, there is no feeling that you are reading another story with monsters. The family ups and downs of Sir Max and the cheerful company led by Juffin give this book a completely different atmosphere. And at the same time it is deeper than it seems at first glance. There were moments that I thought about for a long time. Both plots were very pleasing; the stories seemed original and bright. Although, maybe I'm just bored. Well, it’s just super – listen to your heart, don’t be afraid to be funny, follow your own path! And the Sword of Menin and the library are a complete delight. So, emotions overwhelm me, so nothing coherent comes out. I’m writing in fits and starts, but I’m really overflowing with impressions. I will definitely read the sequel!

In an unusual world, even the enemies are unusual. It would seem that what could be safer than a shadow? But no. And then there are the responsibilities of the monarch, and the brides, numbering as many as three people, have to be saved. So there is no time to be bored.

Dark Vassals of Glenke Tavala
