Auto-translated
I've read several books of modern Russian science fiction.
"The Executioner of Time" - by someone there...
"Death or Glory" - also by someone there...
and so on.
In general, they are terrible books. Everywhere there are some cheap writerly pretensions, some nonsense. The second book is just awful. The author writes in the style of a "worn-out space bun," inserting completely inappropriate phrases from the lexicon of "real men," while the entire story told in the book is complete nonsense. The funniest thing is that, in addition to all this, the book is also written in the style of a blockbuster, which could easily be made into a movie, that is, some aliens, a bunch of alien races with idiotic names and qualities, almost all of which are taken from other science fiction books/movies, it's awful. Various pompous statements like "No, Roma! We need to get Mishka Zislis out of this hell! Get the blaster!" evoke nothing but laughter through tears.
In general, my attitude towards "modern Russian science fiction" is extremely negative.
