In this fantasy, Fury, the apparent protagonist, has much in common with the Norse God Odin, with St. Nicholas and, of course, with the famous Santa Claus. His beloved steed Slippery greatly resembles Odin's eight-legged horse, the legendary Sleipnir (whose mother was Svadilfari, whose name means ill-fated traveler). And Claw, the beast that accompanies St. Nicholas has some analogies with the famous Krampus.

What happens to the heroes in this fiction contains little legend and much entelechy, so the reader should not seek absolute truth in it; only each brief mathematical reasoning is worthy of belief -especially those in Chapter 5. This lack of fidelity to the real legends has its reason for being: all these characters, even while assuming a key role in the foreground, are not the protagonists of this story. The final chapter will reveal why this is so; only at the end of the tale will the reader be in a position to understand the book's title. It is at that very moment that the fleeting appearance of the true protagonist gives the story a Christmassy touch.
