About the book: 2006 / Planet Yaphet in ancient times served as a place of exile for criminals, and then they forgot about it for a long time. And when they remembered, the unimaginable happened - the paratroopers, trained by the special services and armed to the teeth with modern weapons, were destroyed at the moment of landing in the most mysterious way. And this was only the beginning of big troubles. Could the best minds of humanity imagine that there is a weapon much more terrible than a nuclear bomb, and that the witches and sorcerers of a provincial matriarchal world would one day become a nightmare for two great technocratic civilizations that divided outer space? While the rulers wince foreheads in a painful search for a way out, foreign intelligence officers Colonel Serge Kaidanov and Major Konstantin Shepel begin their game against an unusual enemy.
