Who will help the evil spirits and the wights in their struggle for independence? Who will save the castle of black magicians and its mysterious inhabitants from greedy people? A kind minotaur, a peace-loving necromancer and brave patriotic werewolves... But war against people is not the worst thing that can happen in the domain of necromancers. The terrible secrets of sorcerers attract ancient evil. Will the heroes be able to resist the king of the other world? Written with a sly smile, the new novel by Victoria and Oleg Ugryumov, whose names are well known both to fans of serious heroic-romantic fantasy (the “Kahatanna” cycle, the novel “Blue Blood”), and to fans of humorous fantasy ( "The Dragon of the Third Reich", "Snakes, Dragons and Relatives"), is addressed to a wide range of readers.
