The second volume of the series “Black Rus'”. The middle of the 17th century, the Far East, the Amur lands. A fugitive from the future survived in this world of war of all against all. I even got to my feet. Sort of. The time has come to change the reality, which did not turn out very well for Russian explorers. Alas, this is not so simple, for the mighty Qing Empire had already clearly noticed new dangerous and greedy neighbors at its northern borders. Author's notes: Like the first, this book is devoted to an alternative history of the development of the Amur region in the 17th century. The level of historical accuracy is not absolute, but in my immodest opinion, high. The cycle places less emphasis on progress, and more on adventure, intrigue, and war. And, of course, love!
