A year has already passed since the stunning world of Panga became a thing of the past for Valentin Sheller. A year has passed since a ship from the distant future brought him home. Now the Earth seems alien to him, boring and dirty, and from the entire operation to save Panga from possible aggression of earthlings, all he had left was a hoop that allows him to read thoughts, and a supply of energy unknown to mankind, contained in a mysterious “donut”. How to use these priceless objects? Valentin decides to transform his native provincial Demidovsk to the ideal Science City of the future, where technologies that are impossible from our point of view will be developed, and at the same time search for “alternative” sources of Power, which in our world are usually called “magic”. At first, the search does not give visible results. But one day Sheller found the real one, the true bearer of the paranormal Force - the healer Mogutov. Together they are capable of much. But the risk is also great...
