  • MediaDB / «The Steel King" by Yulia Latynina: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 2006 / General Director of the Akhtar Metallurgical Plant Vyacheslav Izvolsky is cruel, talented and unprincipled. He became the owner of the plant, throwing out his predecessor, who had treated him kindly, from the director’s chair. He started his own cellular communication company so that no one would listen to his conversations, he bought the regional governor and the city police, and when he drives drunk through the streets of his principality, local traffic cops stop all other traffic. But the miners' strike and those behind it have brought his plant to the brink of collapse, his city to the brink of environmental disaster, his workers to the prospect of starvation. Where is the line at which the Steel King will stop in his quest to defend himself and his subjects? And does he have the right to stop??
