Predator, do you have any books by Lukyanenko?
P.S. Can you give me a copy of King's Bounty 2?
I have almost all of Lukyanenko's books... If not from Predator, then from someone else :)
Just tell me what books you need (to avoid unnecessary chatter, send a private message...).

I'm currently reading "Ovod" (I don't know if I've mentioned it before). Soon I'll start reading Zelazny's "Lord of Light." I've wanted to for a while, but I haven't had the time.

http://lib.aldebaran.ru already provided this link, but maybe not everyone saw it. It's a very large website with free book downloads and a diverse selection.
P.S. Just so I don't bother people unnecessarily by having them search in local networks 8)).

Heh, it's a free website. As soon as you enter, you immediately see a banner: "Loans up to 3 million rubles! From five to ten years!" :D:D:D

For me, "The Gulag Archipelago" was a true revelation. It is an absolutely incredible work 8)) I simply lack the words to describe it) I believe that everyone must read this work, even if they don't read anything at all and have forgotten what a book is. Because GULAG is us, it is our history. The work is written in excellent language, quite understandable for the "new generation"... In short, I highly, highly recommend reading it.

Exactly! Wise. And this applies to all classics. Whoever doesn't read them has robbed themselves significantly. They have deprived themselves, so to speak, of spiritual fulfillment. "Gulag" is in my plans, it's next on the list. But from Solzhenitsyn I have read "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" and "Matryona's Place". I didn't regret it, very interesting. Especially the 1st one. Also about the camp. And prisoners :D

I try to alternate. Classics, modern works, classics, modern works... After I finish reading "Ovod" and Zheleznyakov, I'll start "The Divine Comedy."

"The Divine Comedy" is, in my opinion, a bit difficult to read... although it's worth a try... I actually couldn't finish it myself, but I tried about 4 years ago... I should probably go back to it - maybe I'll be able to now! ;) My favorite classic is Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment".

"White Nights" by Dostoevsky is a work that I enjoy, even though it's short.

Among the classics, we have Yesenin and Bulgakov's "The Master and Margarita".

It's... just something. No words can describe it (by the way, the movie is quite good!).

Not the best map – the Archipelago of the Gulag, by Solzhenitsyn.

I've recently gotten hooked on "The Chronicles of Narnia"...
It's one of those fairy tales that you can enjoy at any age.

The Archipelago GULAG by Solzhenitsyn isn't exactly light reading.
Yeah, punks should read about Boris Yeltsin and Vladimir Zhirinovsky! :) ;)
