From beginning to end, the narrative is filled with thrilling events and unexpected twists. The plot gave me an entire week of captivating evenings.

“A really good book!
It’s engaging and easy to read. The story is definitely aimed more at a younger audience — I read it to my kids at bedtime, and they loved it! Every night they kept asking if there would be a sequel.”

“I read the book with great interest!
It was a special pleasure for me, as I’m also the artist behind the cover and the map of this work. Even before reading, I was already familiar with the characters and the world through fragments and descriptions. I’m glad I found the time to fully immerse myself in this fascinating world of magic, walking the difficult path alongside characters who already felt dear to me.

I really enjoyed the adventure! The storytelling is dynamic and rich with events. It’s exciting to follow the characters’ journey across the map and see how they manage to overcome the challenges that come their way.

The story reads easily, and the plot draws you in. The depiction of monsters, the originality of spells, and the level of detail in the locations leave no one indifferent.

Thank you to the author for this journey into an extraordinary world!”

“I finally got around to writing a review for this book.
First of all, I want to thank the author for giving me the opportunity to read it among the very first. Thank you for your trust.

I’ll say right away that I usually prefer a different genre of literature, though I’m familiar with the one in which this work is written.

The plot feels fresh and original — not repetitive or clichéd. It’s engaging and easy to read. There’s a certain sense that this is the author’s debut work, but it’s truly a worthy one.

The text is clear and accessible — without unnecessary complexity or ornate phrasing.

As the beginning of a long and fascinating story, I find it very intriguing. I look forward to seeing the further development of this author’s universe, which, I believe, deserves a place on the shelf of every fantasy lover.”

“Many thanks to the author!
The book is fascinating, even for a reader like me from an older generation. Considering that this is only the beginning of the author’s creative journey, I think the book turned out very well!

There are many interesting and unexpected twists, and the author’s imagination is truly unique. Still, in my opinion, the story could use a bit more of a unified ‘fabric of the universe.’

I wish the author continued growth and creative success!

Thank you!”

Readers’ impressions of Volume 2 – Araklia: The Beginning.

“An incredible story!
This is the second book in the series — and it’s even more intense, deeper, and richer in detail. The author reveals much about the world’s history and the origins of the beings we met in the first book. The image in your mind expands; the missing pieces of the puzzle fall into place. We see the bigger picture and dive even deeper into the world we’ve already come to love.

At the same time, it’s a thrilling adventure filled with new characters, epic battles, breathtaking twists, and stunning landscapes.

Beyond the reader’s excitement, I also experienced artistic joy! I had the immense pleasure and honor of illustrating this book — and I delighted in every detail of the author’s descriptions and notes. The scale of his imagination, his passion for what he does, and the spark he carries within himself leave a lasting impression. My connection with the world of Araklia will always remain a special moment in my life.

Thank you, Igor, for the adventure and the magic! ✨”

“The second book in the series is even more incredible —
from start to finish it’s filled with bolder, more striking, and astonishing ideas than the first. The author’s storytelling style is truly distinctive; the plot is dynamic and leads to a powerful finale. The events draw you in from the very first pages, and the story only grows more engaging as it unfolds.

The fantasy world is described with impressive depth and detail, populated by all kinds of fascinating beings. Combined with expressive, vividly colored, and masterfully detailed illustrations — rich, vibrant, and almost appetizing to the eye and soul — the author’s vision made me feel completely detached from reality, which is exactly what I love most in this genre.

Even many months after finishing the book, I still find myself thinking back to this amazing world. I’ll be eagerly waiting for the next chapter of this chronicle.”

Ivan, August 22, 2023.

“An interesting and unusual story!
The more you read, the more captivating it becomes with each new chapter. Anyone who enjoys fantasy will find this book fascinating. I’ve never come across a story quite like this — it feels truly fresh and original.

Wishing everyone an enjoyable read, and the author continued success and inspiration for future works!”

A word from the artist on Volume 3 – Guardians of the Keeper.

“This is one of those books you simply can’t put down —
and when it ends, you feel a gentle sadness, as if saying goodbye to friends.

The story grips you from the very first pages: dynamic adventures, unexpected twists, and a world you can almost feel on your skin.

I loved the attention to detail in the locations, the depth of the characters, and the humor that often made me smile.

If you’re looking for a book that lets you escape reality, dive into an epic journey, and care about the characters as if they were your own — this is definitely it! I can’t wait for the sequel!

And by the way — I created the cover, all the illustrations, maps, and emblems for this book. I hope they, too, will find a place in your heart. ❤️”
