Anna Semirov is a Russian author working in various fantasy genres. She is the winner of the literary prize named after Vл. Odoevsky (2011) for preserving the traditions of intellectual fantasy. One of the author’s best-known books is the duology “Azil,” the first book of which with the same title is what we offer here in audiobook format.

After a chemical war that destroyed chlorophyll, humanity survived only partially. On the shores of the Mediterranean Sea stands Azil—a city hidden beneath a dome. It is the last refuge for the survivors. But as often happens, clean air and quality food became a privilege of the wealthy. A revolution is brewing in the city’s catacombs, and in the sea a giant white whale—Onamazu—waits. Listen to this one of the best books of contemporary social fantasy in audiobook form.
