Accidental travel
One of the genres that has gained popularity recently. The plot unfolds around a man from the modern world we are accustomed to, who, for various reasons, finds himself in a fantastic environment.
For classic science fiction, these are most often options for “pulling out of the past,” abduction, or transfer of consciousness. At the same time, the hero, thanks to his personal qualities or unique skills, not only successfully acclimatizes but also begins to play a big role in the events unfolding in the book.
For alternative history - most often the consciousness of a contemporary or he finds himself in some historical period (for example, before the start of a war or a coup), where, thanks to knowledge of history and modern technologies, he changes the course of history.
In the case of fantasy, the hero simply moves from the familiar world to the magical one, retaining knowledge and skills or gaining some unique ability. To simplify (or, on the contrary, complicate) the life of the hero, the author often places him as some kind of aristocrat or even a ruler, who, of course, is faced with a bunch of problems that cannot be solved without using all the knowledge and existing or newly acquired abilities.
Such books are very popular because it is much easier for the reader to empathize or try on the role of a hero who has the usual thinking, knowledge and motivation.
Sergey Sadov – The Beginning of the Path
Children can sometimes be very cruel... And children who study at a magic academy - even more so. Especially with those who somehow did not please the Ice Princess Leinara from the Ancient Family of Gerrai. Leinara doesn’t care who is in front of her - the scion of an aristocratic family or a simple townsman, a professor of magic or... friends from an ordinary Russian boarding school. After all, the Ice Princess, whose heart is shackled for a long time by the thirst for revenge, knows how to easily walk between worlds. But will this skill help her when the time comes to take revenge?..
Atamanov Mikhail – Friends and magic
The book is the third part of the "Grey Raven" series, told this time from the perspective of the hero's school friend. Girl magician. Purposeful, calculating, cold, unprincipled. At first glance, it seems that a character with such a character cannot evoke sympathy. However, behind this shell hides an easily vulnerable, kind girl, a wonderful, reliable friend, capable of self-sacrifice for the sake of her friends.
Atamanov Mikhail – Breakthrough to Erathia
The fantasy genre, the book contains elvesб gnomes, magic, undead and other traditional attributes of this fairy-tale genre. Actually, initially this was a small fairy tale told to my own son. He really liked the plot, he needed a sequel, then another, and that’s how this book appeared
Atamanov Mikhail – The Road to Knighthood
The book is a continuation of the first part, but told from the perspective of a different character. The book will help readers look at the events they already know from the first part and new events from a different point of view. In contrast to the hero-thief, he is now an exceptionally honest and somewhat straightforward hero who is trying to preserve his childish naive love for his classmate in the face of the abundance of temptations of someone else's real world.
Dalin Maxim – My Holy Land
Author: Dalin Maxim
The chosen one, the unfortunate, the good king, hidden in infancy from enemies and called upon to save the country when his time struck. Stamps, stamps, stamps, gems of eternal subjects, trampled by herds of epigones, like the steps of a temple - by the soles of idle tourists. In the noosphere, where good has long been no longer even with fists, but with sword and magic, a blaster and a hydrogen bomb, where the positive hero is no longer a walking mouthpiece of virtues, white, boring, cloying, like a lump in semolina, but a brave fellow, whatever manages to hit or shoot first, there is no place for a novel about a righteous man. Is he boring, a prosperous boy from a good family, a teenager and a dropout? Is he funny, Ivanushka the fool, having peaceful conversations with demons and dragons? Is he ridiculous, a white warrior who cannot ride a horse, armed with a smile, a chocolate bar and aspirin? Who needs him in hell, where kickbacks are cheerfully sawed - a naively naked soul among souls dressed in armor? And what can he do, alone, against a united hell? Only to die nobly? Have you already decided? But hold on, dear audience.
Metelsky Nikolay – Changing the masks
A world of Japanese animated films about an Ordinary Japanese Schoolboy. A world in which everything is tied to martial arts and confrontation between large clans within the state.
Metelsky Nikolay – Losing the masks
Even the best plan only lasts until it begins to be implemented. This wisdom was once again felt by Maxim Rudov (aka Sakurai Shinji), who planned his life until adulthood. But here's a happy accident - and our hero finds himself in the center of an accelerating mountain avalanche of events. Relationships with aristocrats, problems with competitors, the beginning of a war with the boss of one of the criminal guilds... And also school, friends and people who depend on him. The mask of an ordinary Japanese schoolboy has already been dropped, the mask of a fighter of the rank of Apprentice for an increasing number of people around him is not able to hide the real (or almost real) strength of the hero, the mask of the virtuoso thief Tokyo Dwarf is becoming more and more uncomfortable. And we have to make ever greater efforts to ensure that the mask covering the Patriarch’s face does not fall off. But it was not for nothing that Max became the youngest witcher of the Absolute rank. Yes, not a single plan survived the collision with reality, but the goal remained unchanged. Just like the witchers’ motto: “For my Glory, in my Name”
Metelsky Nikolay - Other people's masks
Go forward, win, rise - this is his way. Sakurai Shinji will do anything to rise higher. To not depend on anyone. Look for loyal people, allies, make money. Fight. After all, it is in battle that the witcher becomes stronger. And it is the battle that tears off the masks: both our own and those of others.
Zhuravlev Vladimir – Unsuccessful reincarnation
In addition to many other things, it tells about the life of a boy who is ready to fight for justice against the whole world. We had to give the hero the ability to retain his memory during the next reincarnation, otherwise it would not have been a novel, but a short epitaph
Dravin Igor - Stranger
The hero is spontaneously transported to another world, possessing hand-to-hand combat skills, but here their value turns out to be questionable. After checking by the local Inquisition, he is left alone and released into “free swimming.” Only now the nearest city turns out to be a settlement of local evil spirits hunters. Moreover, the source of evil spirits is located nearby and represents both a source of all kinds of infection and a place of innumerable treasures
