Tobol. A set in 2 volumes. Ivanov A.

What about I The emerging empire destroyed the voivodsk Middle Ages in the taiga. Peoples and faith mixed. Captive Swedes, Bukhara merchants, officers and officials, convicts, foreigners, chroniclers and architects, Chinese smugglers, fugitive schismatics, shamans, Orthodox missionaries and warlike steppes-jungars-all of them together, enmity between themselves or saving each other, created the fate of Russian Asia.

What about II?

the bizarre threads of human destinies extended through the first book of the novel, now tied to the nodes.

Reforms of Tsar Peter plowed Siberia, and Everyone who was “called” in these free lands believe: “chosen” by Siberia? Runned schismatics erect their fiery ship - but will the souls ascend into the sky of those who cursed themselves on earth? Russian regiments go for gold to the distant Asian city Yarkend - but will they overcome the space of the steppes and the resistance of the Dzungarian hordes? The stubborn metropolitan makes his way to the sacred idol of foreigners through the resistance of the taiga demons. The Tobolsk architect according to secret signs of antiquity helps out of the captivity of the one whom he hates with all his heart. The Almighty Siberian governor finds himself in the paws of the sovereign, who needs to decide what is more important - his own pride or interest of the power? And the history of the country is moving the power of the fierce struggle of the old with the new. And its deep energy - the tension of the eternal dispute of the poet and the king.
