He knows the value of gold, but he puts friendship above everything, and above all, duty to the Motherland. He believes in the Lord, but is afraid of the old gods. Speaks several languages and fights with any weapon. He has a quirky sense of humor and is very kind. A caring, lively, and in some ways very vulnerable person. A brave man named Ilya Urmanin. He lives in a world where only the free are called “people.” This is the world of Ancient Russia. Oleg Divov’s new book is an experience of deep immersion into this bright and complex world. It took a special hero to tell about it in simple and honest words. In fact, Ilya Urmanin has been known to you since childhood, but you have never seen him like this. Now the prince will let Ilya out of the cellar - and then the hero will show himself. He will be faced with undertakings that have never happened before, and no one knows how he will win. Find out how everything really happened. You won’t regret it. Or you will regret it, but it will be too late.
