As Sholokhov once stated in interview for Darker, he had no choice when was offered to publish his novels under Vargo's name. "I wrote these novels in the year 2008 and was trying to place them somewhere during 2009. But I didn't get any result. For instance, people from Eksmo told me that they have no special book series for horrors. But then I was invited to send them my stuff again. I had the only choice: not to be published at all or be published under Vargo's name. And I did my choice"[1]
A bit later Sholokhov has got his personal book series but only three novels were published therein. After that he returned to "Vargo" collective pen name.
