Description

“F-Territory” is an audio-book series introducing listeners to new names in children’s and teen science fantasy. The series is based on the shortlist of the same-name contest organized by the publishing house “1C-Publishing” together with the portal “Author.Today”. The writer Kar mal Gerzen, author of fantastic novels in romantic and detective fantasy genres, tried her hand at teen literature and managed to reach the contest’s final with the novel “Enchantments of a Crystal Heart.”

This colorful story tells about adventures in our world and a parallel one, about the dangers they hide, and about the friendship, love, and self-sacrifice of their inhabitants. Twelve-year-old Kira has always been an unusual child. She hears the voices of spirits and calls herself Ki. And there’s nothing surprising about the fact that an unusual girl finds unusual friends.

One day Ki learns that her friend Diana is a runaway from another world. When the walls start whispering and Diana turns into a crystal statue, Ki opens the door into a wonderful world where there is a terrifying “Other Side of the Forest” and a city among the clouds—where at a fair you can meet sellers of dreams and living paintings, and deep underground, the Giants are sleeping.

Ki is destined to play a special role in the standoff between a witch-genie and the girl with a crystal heart. Want to know the details? Listen!
