OverviewBefore us lies a grim dog-eat-dog world, where all the shots are called by the omnipresent System. The inhabitants live in endless gloomy corridors, and they appear here not only lacking memory, but also completely limbless. They are ""volitional nullforms,"" meaning that supposedly their fate was consensual. Nobody remembers when or why it happens, but everyone must try to survive at any cost. Our hero is number eleven, known to everyone as Elb. He does not intend to drag out his pathetic existence any further, wanting instead to investigate what's happening. Since restoring order in his own suburb, he and his team are now marching ever onward, steamrolling over enemies and accumulating points from the System. Book nine sees Elb and his crew rolling on towards Crontown and their first encounter with those known as the elves. The elves inhabit the top rungs of the local hierarchy, and are precisely who our hero is so keen to meet. And besides, the secrets of the creation of this world are gradually being revealed to Elb, and his personal goals are becoming more tangible. That said, these revelations are no few in number.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationDem Mikhailov was born on November 23, 1979, in the city of Zarafshan (the Republic of Uzbekistan). His natural aptitude for science and technology decided his initial career choice, prompting him to enter the local industrial college. Upon graduation, he worked in the mining industry specializing in separation and beneficiation of metals. Still, he didn't find much joy in the admittedly boring job. Fed up with the daily grind, Dem finally decided to radically change his lifestyle and moved to Turkey, where he spent the next twelve years working in the leisure industry, rising through the ranks from a regular entertainer to an animation team manager. Although leisure-time animation is admittedly a vocation for the young, it allowed Dem to mix with all kinds of people and later use his knowledge of human types and characters in his books. In 2012, Dem Mikhailov returned to his home town, which marked the beginning of his stellar writing career. He's rightly considered one of the founding fathers of LitRPG, and his legendary saga The Sleepless Ones (The World of Waldyra) became one of the cult LitRPG series serving as an inspiration for such bestselling LitRPG authors as Vasily Mahanenko, Dan Sugralinov, and Michael Atamanov.
