About the book

Random events trigger a chain reaction of galactic proportions. At the center of it all lies a planet—heavy, barely suitable for life, and home to bizarre lifeforms. A hard sci-fi narrative infused with elements of detective mystery, thriller, space battles, and espionage—enhanced with humor and unpredictable twists. Symbionts, robots, artificial intelligence, powerful weaponry, and myriads of stars filled with diverse beings—and of course, new allies and complex relationships. Brutal planetary and galactic wars with nonlinear outcomes, and the boundless cosmos with all its power and secrets.

    For me, chapter 6 was a really tough test. There’s a lot of information and minimal action. On top of that, the dialogues are "dead" in a question-answer format. Although before this, everything was pretty good, with dynamics and lively communication.

    Anatoliy Luzhenetsky, those who do not consider my work to be science fiction might disagree with you (here could be a wide ironic smile). But I’m not arguing with anyone. After all, the main thing is that reading brings pleasure... P.S. I hope my ideas will be useful to you.

    Overall, the idea is interesting. But the beginning kills all the dynamics (especially the second chapter). If you want, I can elaborate on what, where, and how.

    - Dad, do gays exist? - Yes, son. That's - Fantasy..... *** The hero didn't find a "piano in the bushes," but failed to notice planets among the pianos. And that Hero... will fly to bring good and cause justice.

    Thank you. I liked the plot and the way you write. I read it in one breath, even though I’m 52 years old and have read a lot of classics in this genre. !!!!!!!

    Mmm...... Hmm..... Hmmmm..... I don’t even know where to start with this comment. I’ll begin with spelling mistakes and surzhyk. There are a lot. Also, there are tautologies. So, an online editor wouldn’t hurt. Physics. EMP. It affects all electronics, only a "Faraday Cage" can save it. Food. A capsule whose contents expand in the stomach... It would destroy the stomach. It would be better to dissolve these capsules in a glass of water and drink them like a protein shake. And there are many such remarks. Conclusion: The idea isn’t bad, it just needs some work. I can’t give it a like. Rating 3/5.

    Interesting. The space theme has always had its own, special place in creativity.

    At the beginning of the book, I was still hesitant: interesting or not interesting, but the plot really "picked up" and drew me in right to the very end. The book is great, I'm starting the second part.
