GENTLEMEN OF FORTUNE (ePub)

Our world rests not on some whales and turtles, but on trivial truths. Yes, they are banal, known to all and long accustomed, but they do not lose their universality and obligatory. This and "the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle equals the square of the hypotenuse", and "to do something, you must first get off the couch" and even "wash your hands before eating." We do not argue with them, and often base their arguments in arguments or judgments based on them. One of such indisputable truths is "good and interesting books are written by good and interesting people." Let me introduce you to such a writer - Mikhail Sergeevich Akhmanov, a good and interesting person. To begin with at least from the fact that Mikhail Sergeyevich is a Petersburger in the third generation. Engineer-physicist, worked for a long time at the Institute of Scientific Instrument Engineering. It is well known in the scientific world so far, largely due to its achievements and numerous scientific works (there are about a hundred of them). When several decades ago the science of a great country suddenly turned out to be of no use to anybody, he was engaged in literary translations from English. And then he began to write. And writing is so cool and wonderful that the total circulation of his works has already specifically exceeded more than three million copies. Currently, Mikhail Sergeyevich is a professional writer, a member of the Writers' Union of St. Petersburg. Strelbitsky's publishing house is proud to say that this is our author. Therefore, today we are happy to present the next, author's volume of the New Fantasy Library, which was composed entirely of several works by the respected Mikhail Sergeyevich Akhmanov. We are sure that our readers will appreciate this wonderful and interesting book.
