STORE


Welcome to my store!


Paypal and Payoneer no longer work in my country, so I can't get money from Ko-fi, Gumroad, Buymeacoffe and ComicAd (the ad banners here).
The only tip jar I have left is Boosty, so I'm going to use it for selling my books as well.
My Gumroad store still works but all the earnings now go to my friend's Paypal and from there, to charity.
If you want the earnings to go to me, use the links below (next to each book). They lead to my bookstore on Boosty. It accepts Paypal, all cards, any currency, then it converts it into rubles and sends to me.

COLD OBSIDIAN - Obsidian Trilogy, book 1


Pdf + epub - 267 pages

Buy on Boosty

"Cold Obsidian" is a fantasy novel about a young mortal who becomes an apprentice of the creators of his world.

Omnis is a world of unstable magic where all creatures are born with a natural ability to stabilize and use it. All creatures, besides humans. They were the only species that inherited the flaw of their creators - the immortal worldholders responsible for the very existence of Omnis.
To make things right, the worldholders created a system of three Horas with Hora Tenebris as the magic disperser and two other Horas - Solaris and Lunaris - as the stabilizers existing in equilibrium with each other. Inside the stabilized areas humans are free from their natural flaw and have full access to stable magic. But in a broad area where the stabilizers’ zones of influence intersect the magic is wild, anomalous. That area, known as No Man’s Land, divides Omnis in two.
Horas are the foundation of human civilization in Omnis. They look like precious gems encased in gold and silver. They are protected by magic that would destroy anyone who dared to touch them unless it’s a worldholder as well. They are impossible to steal. Even more: stealing them is useless, because they have no secret powers at all. Yet someone has stolen them nonetheless.
Who is the thief? What does he or she want? How did they overcome the protective spell? Worldholders themselves are puzzled. One thing is certain here: something big is going on.


HOT OBSIDIAN - Obsidian Trilogy, book 2


Epub - 256 pages

Buy on Boosty

Everyone knows Lifekeepers, the warriors of mercy, those who bring light and justice to the darkest corners of the world where even stable magic does not reach. But few know the Order of the Hot Obsidian, a small but ancient group of cultists running the Lifekeepers as a mere facade for their own agenda. Well, this book is about them. Them and the ten boys they send on a mission, knowing that only one of them will survive in the end.
We will learn about Kangassk’s father and mysterious the Hora thief along the way as well.

“Hot Obsidian” is the second book of Obsidian Trilogy but, since it explains the same events from the other side of the conflict, you can read it before “Cold Obsidian” just fine.

Wolf Song


Pdf - 16 pages


Get it for free or leave a tip

“Wolf Song” (originally “Песнь о Волках”) is a poem about a scientist who left the city to live with wolves. She enjoys being a hermit, writes poems in the wilderness, befriends a wolf family and learns a thing or two about life from them.
The story is pure fantasy, of course, but it was inspired by real-life stories of people who spent years living among wolves and were fascinated by those wonderful creatures.
