Maria Semenova, the author of the famous novel “Wolfhound,” always writes about strong people. In an unequal battle, when death breathes in your face, and the treacherous enemy is strong and merciless, in a dungeon, on the wall of a burning city - everywhere all the heroes stand for truth and honor to the end. This book is about honor and nobility. And it doesn’t matter who you are - the fearless and fierce Ratsha from the squad of the Ladoga prince Rurik or the corel Pelko captured in mortal combat - everyone has their own share, and only easy happiness is not given to anyone by the stingy gods. Swords ring, blood flows, and such rage burns the heart that both in dreams and in reality Pelko sees the death of the merciless Ratsha. But the hour comes and Pelko saves the helpless enemy, because man did not come to earth for eternal malice. And that's why this book is about love. That irresistible love, in the name of which Nezhdan Voenezhich from the story “Sorcerer” stands alone against many and remains indestructible. Because you can’t live on this earth without love.
