On the night of a large tide. Krapivin V.P.

The main character of the trilogy “On the Night of the Great Tv” in dreams moves into strange, semi -fantastic worlds, while turning into a twelve -year -old boy. In one of these worlds, in the ancient dilapidated fortress, he meets the trumpeter Valerka and the brother, Valerkin's younger brother. Boys need to return here to the same fortress, but five hundred years earlier. Otherwise, in the battle in which they once fought, the enemy will defeat and destroy their hometown.

In the next move from the world to the world, our hero in alliance with the same Valera and Brother enters into a duel with the great chancellor, dictator, which lies up the inhabitants of the fortress city and gave the order to kill children in the name of the supposedly “intended future ". And from the impersonal, the dead world, where the boys were brought once again, Yashka helps them to get out - eternal pearls, a living crystal, a drop of star rain.

Like Seryozha, Faddeika, the hero of the “orange portrait with specks”, wanders between two worlds - earth and Mars. Here, on the ground, he is an ordinary boy, a dreamer and a dreamer. There, on Mars, he is a wise prince, who gives all his strength to put an end to the meaningless massacre, which is led by local tribes, and thereby protect the planet from death.
