Alexei Ivanov is a writer, screenwriter and cultural critic. He works in a variety of literary formats. "Geographer Globus propyl," "Bluda and MUDO," "Dormitory-on-Blood," and "Nenastye" are modern urban prose. "The Gold of Rebellion" and "The Heart of Parma" are modernist historical novels. "Psoglavtsy" and "Community" - intellectual thrillers. "Mining Civilization", "Backbone of Russia" and "See the Russian rebellion" - large-scale photo books about national and non-stolichnaya history.
Three stories by Alexei Ivanov, written at the end of the Soviet Union, by their genetics still belong to the great Soviet fiction. And yet they are already a little more than Soviet fiction. Tougher in idea, riskier in entourage, freer in fiction. But their sincere faith in man and humanity - they are from there, from the Golden Age. The Hunt for the Big Dipper. A small gang of space pirates attacks a passing starship. The robbery is quite successful, but the noble avengers - children from the planet Earth - follow the pirates. Pirates are harmless, but children are merciless. And it turns out to be an action movie in reverse: first fun, then scary. Earth-Sortirovochnaya. The sleepy life of the settlement Sortirovka stretches as usual: work at the station, vegetable garden, store, moonshine. And suddenly it turns out that every second resident of Sortirovka is actually an alien! There is a galactic war, aliens cleverly disguise themselves as earthlings, and every common man's trouble is actually a military action of aliens. It's no longer an action movie, but a comedy. Ships and the galaxy. And this story is written in the rare genre of "space opera". The action is spread over the entire Milky Way, the stars are blazing, bizarre ships are rushing, the space is teeming with terrible monsters, the history of the Galaxy is full of grandiose confrontations and battles, and through space shimmering secrets of ancient civilizations that have died.
