It swept the world during the "supernatural" phase of the young adult genre and it was an instant hit with teenage girls in particular. They were also followed by two other companion works as well as a novella by the American creator of the series, Stephenie Meyer. The main character Isabella Swan, better known as Bella, moves to the sleepy and rainy town of Forks in Washington.
She moves there all the way from Arizona to stay with her dad. And she ends up falling in love with a permanently teenage-looking vampire called Edward Cullen, who's years old.

It's a legend of a place that existed, then suddenly, didn't exist any longer. To the paranormal community, the Briarberry Estate is as real as they are and promises hope and sanctuary. There are footnotes, references, erudition data, but reader must be feeling like approaching distant planet, because of excessive usage of unpopular words, aphoristic summation and metaphors. His literary style is very smooth and surely there is no re-mixing concepts from mentioned disciplines to delude potential reader.
Although there are too much metaphors, not literally, but when Land uses philosophical and cybernetics notions and combines them I could not get the impression, that essence of this writing is pure metaphoric with a little or none reference to the external world, where real-material technologies even considered in their ontological and metaphysical function interact at the plane of existence.
So the tendency of transhumanization have not only begun, but became inseparable from, what we could name — transcendental imagination.
Whenever trans human thinks about his being in the world, he makes a reference to the transhuman state of his body and mind. This is important, because the problem is not delineated to the future, but radically close to our contemporary existence. We could ask if we are still human in such a circumstance?
