A new novel by the author of bestsellers “Princess Olga” and “Daughter of War. Blood and Ash.” A continuation of the adventures of our contemporary woman, “falling through” into the bloody year 1237 during the terrible winter of Batu’s invasion. Ryazan has already fallen; the border principalities are bleeding to death—while the merciless horde, like an iron locust swarm, is devastating the Russian Land…
Will a “migrated” woman from the future, now trapped in the body of a young noblewoman, be able to change the course of history? Will she save Evpaty Kolovrat and his “brave men”? Will she defend Kozelsk, which held off every assault for a month and a half and was called by the Tatars the “Evil City”?
Cutting off her maiden braid and “putting on” chainmail by naming herself with a man’s name and passing as a young warrior, she accepts the battle!
