About the book: 2023 / United States, China, Great Britain, Russia, European Union. These once influential superpowers can no longer be found on any map of the world. Many years ago, the very existence of life on the planet was threatened. Cities disappeared one after another, state after state became history, and the civilized world melted like spring snow under the bright rays of the sun. This continued until scientists created a weapon capable of stopping the invasion of enemies from a parallel universe, called the devourers. Since then, only three cities have survived on the planet, which, however, have been subject to attacks for many decades. Death and the complete destruction of man continues to circle in the foggy air. Now the earth is forever hidden from the sky by a milky veil.
