About the book: 2013 / There was a monstrous world war, and there was great unrest. But not all civilization has been wiped off the face of the earth. Some zones have survived and retained pockets of the former world. It’s just that such places are now called not states, but Oases. Much knowledge and technology were partly lost, partly buried under the ruins of industrial cities, now called Halls. On the eve of a new redistribution of the world, the owners of the Oases are striving to obtain funds that will help them seize other people's territories and resources. For this purpose, they send armed expeditions to cities. Their path lies through agricultural communities, forced to fight off both the armies of the Oases and the evil spirits that emerge from the poisoned Halls. Everyone survives as best they can. A new novel from the author of “There Will Be No Second Chance”»!
