In the history of every world there is a time of darkness. In the history of every world there will be those who gave birth to it and those who stopped it. Heroes and villains. The Fallen and the Survivors. Those who surrendered and those who won. We know about them from the pages of books, we hear their names in the verses of old, now forgotten songs, we meet their surnames in the names of squares and streets. However, do we know who they are? Five professors from Alstendorf University, five magicians, five legends, five friends? “The Life of Five” is a work with a non-standard composition, a unique author’s view of fantasy, an attempt to bring something new to this popular genre. The action of the book takes place in an imaginary world and is centered around five heroes - magicians-legends of the dark times of this world.
