The main character gains a second life through reincarnation, while keeping all his memories, knowledge, and skills from the previous one. A familiar plot twist, isn’t it? Only the world he lands in is completely unfamiliar to him. It’s the Russian Empire—but nothing like the one we know from history textbooks. Here, technologies resemble magic, and even magic itself has become a technology.
The hero is reincarnated into the body of a teenager named Alexander, who is adopted by Count Suvorov. The Suvorov cadet school created by the Count collects gifted orphans from all over Russia to put their talents to use for the benefit of the empire. But the hero is met coldly at the educational institution. A strong rival isn’t needed by anyone—so the road ahead will have to be carved out by himself, challenging the established order. A long journey lies ahead, but only the best will become the heir to the glorious family!
In the eighth book, Suvorov enters a military academy, where classes are taught by very unusual instructors. The hero’s team grows and gains strength very quickly, so the aristocrats start showing interest in his fighters—up to the point where they recognize in the nameless orphans their own bastards, trying to strengthen their clans. Meanwhile, an external invasion is being prepared in the empire, so all sides of the internal political conflict will be temporarily forced to enter a truce. However, that won’t save Suvorov from new attempts on his life. Want the details? Listen!
