1 Dogan
сущ.; собст.; SK, DT 51. Опечатка на нескольких обложках первого издания книги с заголовком Hogan, написанной Бенджамином Слайтманом младшим, что сделало эти экземпляры букинистическим раритетом.He flipped back to the cover again, and this time Eddie saw it. “The title on the front’s misprinted, isn’t it? Dogan instead of Hogan.” / Tower nodded happily. “A hogan is an Indian home of the type illustrated on the front. A dogan is… well, nothing. The misprinted cover makes the book somewhat valuable…” — Эдди снова перевернул книгу передней обложкой вверх и на этот раз увидел сам. – Название на обложке сделано с опечаткой, правильно? Доган вместо Хогана. / Тауэр радостно закивал. – Хоган – это жилище индейцев, как на картинке обложки. А доган – это… ну вообще ничего. Одна только опечатка на обложке уже делает эту книгу довольно ценной… (ТБ 5)
2. Здание форпоста, обнаруженного Джейком недалеко от Кальи, который некогда входил в сеть баз корпорации Сомбра. Посредством сохранившегося оборудования оттуда велось наблюдение за некоторыми из жителей Кальи, и также устанавливалась связь с неким местом в Тандерклепе, называемым Алгул Сьенто, и существом по имени Финли О’Тего.A minute later they reached the door of the hut. Above it, on a rusting steel plate, was this: NORTH CENTRAL POSITRONICS, LTD. / Northeast Corridor / Arc Quadrant / OUTPOST 16 / Medium Security / VERBAL ENTRY CODE REQUIRED / On the door itself, now hanging crooked by only two screws, was another sign. A joke? Some sort of nickname? Jake thought it might be a little of both. The letters were choked with rust and eroded by God knew how many years of blowing sand and grit, but he could still read them: WELCOME TO THE DOGAN — Минутой позже они уже подошли к двери. Над ней крепилась изрядно заржавевшая стальная табличка с надписью: СЕВЕРНЫЙ ЦЕНТР ПОЗИТРОНИКИ, ЛТД / СЕВЕРО-ВОСТОЧНЫЙ КОРИДОР / КВАДРАТ ДУГИ / АВАНПОСТ 16 / ВТОРОЙ УРОВЕНЬ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ / ВХОД ПО РЕЧЕВОМУ ПАРОЛЮ / На самой двери, только на двух винтах, еще два вывалились, висела другая табличка. “Это шутка? – подумал Джейк. – Прозвище?” Чуточку одного и капелька другого? Кто мог ответить на этот вопрос? Табличка провисела Бог знает сколько лет, буквы едва проступали сквозь ржавчину, но Джейк все-таки прочитал текст: ДОБРО ПОЖАЛОВАТЬ В “ДОГАН” (ТБ 5)
