His novel “Illusion” is the first book in the “Mirrors” series, a real saga about the inextricable connection of two worlds located on this and on the other side of the mirror. The heroes of this series are ordinary Russian teenagers who unexpectedly find themselves in the very center of the confrontation between the real and “through the looking glass” worlds. The mysterious country of Mirroria, located somewhere in the gap between different universes, is controlled by ancient mirror magic. For centuries, earthly magicians sought to get into Mirroria, and the demonic lords of Mirroria, on the contrary, penetrated into our world: they needed earthlings with amazing abilities. Russian schoolgirl Katerina Derzhavina unexpectedly discovers the existence of a mirror world and learns that she is mystically connected with it. And incredible adventures begin: opening mirrors let monsters into our world, mirror doubles replace ordinary people, glass statues come to life... The plot develops very dynamically: fights, chases, battles, disasters, transformations, mysterious disappearances, unexpected recognitions. Incredible imagination combined with undoubted literary talent helped the young author write a truly interesting and unexpected book..
