Elena Ershova is a Russian writer of mystical works in the “horror” genre. She became known for the trilogy “Legends of the Twilight Era.” The first two books of the series won prize places in literary contests. The writer’s novel “Ichtis,” already familiar to our listeners, also earned a prize—at the “Myth.Today” contest organized by the “Eksmo” publishing house—and made it into the short list of the “Electronic Letter” award, organized by the LitRes portal.
The author’s success is closely connected to the fact that, having a teaching education and experience in psychological work with socially dangerous families and difficult teenagers, she actively uses that body of knowledge in her books—where the heroes are placed in complicated situations.
We present, in audio format, the second book of the “Legends of the Twilight Era” called “The Dead Water.” The novel has a fully independent plot, despite belonging to the cycle. After devastating wars, territories with remnants of bygone civilizations become dangerous for people. Horrifying rumors spread about these places; superstitions multiply.
In one such region arrives Ignat, who wants to restore the past and resurrect his dead friend. But what will the price be? Deals with otherworldly evil never end well.
Will Ignat be able to overcome all the difficulties? Local residents absolutely don’t want to help him—on the contrary, they rather hinder him. Listen to this gripping story in audiobook form!
