Harry Harrison: The Eden Trilogy<\/h3>\n

A sci-fi world that is unique in its detail and quality of work, in which an absurd accident did not wipe out its true and rightful owners, the dinosaurs, from the face of the Earth. What would the Earth be like today?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Download

J. Martin: A Song of Ice and Fire cycle<\/h3>\n

Arthur Clarke: "The City and the Stars"<\/h3>\n

Arthur Clarke's The City and the Stars was years ahead of its time. In this book, the unbridled imagination of the author predicted many areas of science that were not yet thought of in the 50s of the 20th century. Even today, the novel is a great read.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Download

M. Weiss, T. Hickman: "DragonLance"<\/h3>\n

DragonLance... The Saga of the Spear... You can talk a lot about the injustice and cruelty of this world, about the commercial order, about the primitiveness compared to other books presented here, but this does not change the fact: the DragonLance trilogy is certainly a classic of heroic fantasy. And I, the author of Wrath of the Dragon, Rusty Gold and Winged Class Hero, know this very well.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Download

Barbara Hambly: "Dragonbane"<\/h3>\n

In this book, the traditional story of the dragon and the hunter is raised to such a height, brought to such perfection that, I believe, nothing better will be written on this subject. And the black Morkeleb, one of the main characters of the novel, is by far the most beautiful dragon ever described.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Download

Kenneth Oppel: The Silverwing Trilogy<\/h3>\n

They are the only ones who did not fight in the battle of birds and beasts. They should never see the sun. Their time is night. Such a sentence was handed down many years ago to a flock of silver-winged bats. But the Higher Powers gave a Promise that one day the ban would be lifted.
\nDuring a terrible storm, the young silver-winged Shade lost his flock, but in return he met a faithful companion - the bat Marina. Unfortunately, people once ringed Marina and the pack turned away from her. Shade is sure that the rings have something to do with the Promise, but the path to unraveling this mystery is too dangerous - merciless enemies are waiting at every turn, and friends betray and break the Law.
\nThe brave Shade knows that the risk is great, but he will not spare his life to return the sun to his flock...<\/span><\/p>\n

These books are not found anywhere else on the web. I bought them on Ozone, my friend Lex took a photo of each page, and I recognized and designed.
\nThe quality of novels grows from volume to volume literally in leaps and bounds. If the first book may also seem a little childish, then the second and especially the third is a great high-quality fantasy with a well-developed plot and very unexpected ideas. Based on the novels, by the way, a good animated series was filmed, which is entirely available on YouTube.<\/span><\/p>\n

Henry Lyon Oldie: "The Way of the Sword"<\/h3>\n

The world of G. L. Oldie. The world of the book "The Way of the Sword" is quite similar to the medieval Earth, with the only difference that here cold weapons - swords, spears, halberds, etc. - are animated and have a mind. The Living Blades call themselves "The Shining Ones", and consider humans to be their "Appendages", not even realizing that humans are also sentient. People, in turn, do not realize that many of their actions are guided not by their own will, but by the will of their intelligent weapons.
\nHowever, this world is very kind and harmonious: the art of fencing here is perfected to unthinkable perfection, but all fights are bloodless, despite the fact that the participants are armed and masterful weapons - or rather, thanks to this. This is a highly aestheticized and fairly stable world - but there is practically no progress in it - only fencing and blacksmithing are developing - after all, people do not even realize that they often act under the influence of their swords.
\nAnd in a harmonious and stable world, mysterious bloody murders begin. Both people and Shining in shock - this has not happened for almost eight centuries! ..<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Download

Vl. Savchenko: Black Stars<\/h3>\n

In 2001, in Kharkov, I was lucky to meet Vladimir Savchenko. I told him the same thing that I will say now: it was the novel "Black Stars" that made me a science fiction writer, and I remember it, perhaps, like no other. I was still a child when I first read it, and did not understand much at that time, but the amazing, unique atmosphere of the triumph of Reason over any obstacles forever sunk into my soul. This novel is a hymn to science, a triumph of the author's imagination and ingenuity. They say that in the 60s, almost every university and scientific research institute of the USSR had heated debates about the possibility of realizing one or another of Savchenko's findings.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Download

Trunkat Tour: "The Adventures of Hooke"<\/h3>\n

Question. You know a lot of books, after reading which, a boy from the 6th-7th grade of a secondary school will firmly decide to become a biologist, fill the whole apartment with articles, drawings, textbooks, will regularly travel to another city (look at the living object of his dream), and after graduating from school, he will enter to the Faculty of Biology, and only after many years, under the influence of circumstances (and dragons...) will he change course to technology and computers?
\nThe answer, to be honest, is right in front of your eyes. The novel "The Adventures of Hooke", which I stumbled upon quite by accident in the basement of the school library (!), really turned my life upside down. Yes, I never became a biologist, but I strongly doubt that I would have realized myself as a dragon without the help of this magical, unique, insanely interesting tale about my favorite creatures after dragons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tour Trunkatov - from the Latin name of the bottlenose dolphin, Tursiops Truncatus - the collective pseudonym of V. M. Belkovich and A. V. Yablokov, famous Soviet researchers who devoted their lives to dolphins.
