With a new fantastic story by Svetlana Lavrova, “Arkaim. Three days until the end of the world,” the Socrates publishing house opens a new series of books, “Tales of Old Cities.” Arkaim is the oldest city found in the Urals, it is about four thousand years old, so it is logical that the story about this city opens the series. But the problems that the teenagers - the heroes of the story - solve are absolutely modern, and they are not hindered even by the beginning of the "end of the world", which we expected in 2000, are waiting for in 2012, 2014, 2020 - and, probably, will never wait. The action of the second story, “The Ringing of a Bell in an Empty Sky,” takes place in another, less old Ural city, in Yekaterinburg, in the Musubikan youth organization, where the guys practice martial arts. If the word "tatami" for you is not just "mattress" - this is the book for you! But the main thing is that teenagers who are not satisfied with today's reality come to Musubikan. What is this - an escape from reality into a completely alien culture of Japan? Or rebuilding reality for yourself? Dead end or wide road? It's hard to answer...
