Description

It’s 1989. The USSR has changed greatly by the end of the 13th Five-Year Plan, but its growth hasn’t been cut short in the murky times of the treacherous “Perestroika.” The Soviet Union remains great, mighty—and unshakable. The 1980s aren’t marred by the “era of grandiose funerals”: the old guard is alive and healthy, thanks to Misha Garin. He’s almost thirty, but Misha still isn’t sure that the USSR is saved, that their native superpower won’t be knocked off course.

A global crisis is coming... But what’s happening beyond the worlds, in the neighboring beta-space, where a precise copy of humanity lives on permanent residence? There is also a Soviet Union there—only the CPSU General Secretary elected is Shelepin. Is “beta-USSR” better or worse? Does it pose a threat to “our” USSR—or in the Beta did they find a secret way to save the state of workers and peasants? Who will Garin meet on the other side of the local barrier? What awaits him in another world?

It’s scary to become a second “popadent”—but it has to happen. Misha, it has to!
