The Linesmen

The “MediaBook” studio presents an audiobook of one of the most famous Russian writers, Andrey Belyanin—“The Line-Men.” The audiobook is voiced by popular director and well-known actor Vladimir Rybальченко. “The hour will come—after the assault on the aul of Dady-Yurt, when two boys from the future are led to you. They are the Line-Men…” — the general Yermolov concluded with significance. Zaур Kocheсokov and Vasiliy Barloga exchanged baffled looks. Could our two contemporaries—students of history at a prestigious Moscow university—have known that fate would send them straight into the furnace of the Caucasian wars of the nineteenth century? And now they must uncover the mystery of the Line, where Russians and Caucasians disappear without a trace, where Black Abreks ride three-legged horses, where flying genies burn a person to ashes with one glance, and where steel falcons are able to pierce a Chechen mail shirt with their beak… Without the old plunker Eroshka and his granddaughter who shoots with two hands, our heroes would have vanished on the very first day. But here… — “We’ll have such a mess, come, kuma, and enjoy the spectacle!” We’re listening, liking, and actively commenting! )
