About the book: 2007 / For the first time in Russian - the first volume of the epic duology "Knight-Sorcerer", the latest creation of one of the greatest science fiction writers of our time, Gene Wolfe. Wolfe not only reformulates the canons of heroic fantasy - he seems to recreate the genre from scratch. Having crossed the invisible line, the modern American teenager finds himself in a world of dragons and elves, frost giants and talking animals, cannibal pirates, robbers and noble warriors. Transformed by elven magic into a powerful knight, he begins to explore the seven-level universe, trying to regain his memory that was stolen from him and find the answer to the question of what it means to be a real knight..
