“The art of sniper is the cold-blooded taking of another person’s life and a kind of science that needs to be learned and perfected. I have often heard the opinion that a sniper should hate the enemy, but I was convinced that those who hated strongly did not become good snipers. I preferred people who were cold and balanced. Hunters who do not feel hatred towards their prey, but consider the most important thing for themselves to get close to it and destroy it..." These words of Clifford Shore became the epigraph of Oleg Ryazanov’s book “The History of Sniper Art”,

The story is well written. But I would like to note that now in the world there are terrorists, sadists, maniacs who brutally kill other people, sometimes because of their nationality. This problem is now more relevant than hatred for non-existent dragons. But if the author tried to raise this topic through such a story, then I support him.
