Afanasy Nikitin and the Legend of the Four Sorcerers

“Who could have imagined that excavating an ancient burial mound would become the starting point for a truly incredible and dizzying adventure? Afanasy Nikitin—named after the famous traveler—an ordinary teenager from the 22nd-century Moscow. When his mother, a well-known expert in history and dead languages, is kidnapped, Afanasy and his friends have to plunge into the very thick of events. This is how amazing and dangerous adventures begin on land and at sea, on Earth and in far-off space, with chases and battles against galactic criminals and villains of every kind. But even in the very first confrontation—with a group of odd circus performers from the ruined traveling circus “The Golden Triangle,” who work for a vicious millionaire—Afanasy realizes that all this is only the tip of an enormous iceberg. And it’s unclear what awaits the brave young adventurer and his unusual family ahead.”
