The previous volume of the anthology of Russian science fiction mentioned that this book "marks a kind of watershed between generations—the generation of those who began under Yefremov and the generation of the new wave, young authors at the time, emerging from the Strugatsky brothers' 'overcoat.'" Friends and science fiction connoisseurs dubbed this new wave the "fourth." These authors were, for the most part, relatively young at the time (early 1980s - early 1990s), most of whom were barely thirty, and some even younger. They were ambitious, believed in their literary rightness, keenly aware of a changing reality, and responded quickly to change. Kiev's Boris Stern, Volgograd's Evgeny and Lyubov Lukin, St. Petersburg's Vyacheslav Rybakov and Andrei Stolyarov, Moscow's Vladimir Pokrovsky, Krasnoyarsk's Andrei Lazarchuk and Mikhail Uspensky, and the young writer Sergei Lukyanenko from Almaty, who was just starting out in those years… We see that their geography encompasses almost the entire country, which was then still a unified whole. These names are now firmly established on the literary map of science fiction, and we are pleased to present in this volume a selection of their best works from that era of storm and stress.
