Warsaw, early 20th century. An enclave that has appeared in the city, inhabited by demons from gloomy legends, is surrounded by a wall of silver rods. The houses there have acquired unusual properties, and the streets change directions. Similar formations arose in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Only royal patrols and licensed alchemists are allowed inside in search of ingredients for experimental potions. Polish alchemist Olaf Rudnitsky, along with an officer of the elite royal guard, stand in the way of mortal danger. Meanwhile, the war is coming. Magic duels, experimental medicines, and growing tension at the site of the other world's breakthrough lead to an ending no one expected. Finalist "Book of the Year" Translator Shevchenko I.
