About the book: year / After writing a fantastic series about the Ancient One, Sergei Tarmashev decided to lift the veil over the past of the heroes and please curious readers. "Ancient. Prehistory" is a book about young Torband and Alina, who will soon turn into heroes familiar to fans of the saga - the Thirteenth and Alice. By 2108, according to the chronology of the Ancients, the energy crisis that shook civilization had reached its peak. The oil and gas fields, the lifeblood and air of the ancient economy, have become depleted. The only deep sea shelf where oil still remained was at the bottom of a body of water called the Ancient Pacific Ocean. According to a multilateral intergovernmental agreement, the field was developed jointly by several of the most influential states in the political arena of that era. However, the shelf was the cause of constant political disputes. From the files of the Ancients found and studied, it follows that in the summer of 2111, an armed conflict broke out at the mining site. There is no information about what caused it, but it is known for sure that on August 29, 2111, the civilization of the Ancients destroyed itself in the fire of a planet-wide nuclear war. The Day of the Great Catastrophe marked the beginning of the modern chronology system. Contents: Ancient.
