This novel is a sequel to Beetle in the Anthill and The Time Wanderers by famous sci-fi writers brothers Strugatsky. We have been really fascinated by the story of "foundlings" and the tragedy of Lev Abalkin, Rudolf Sikorski, Toivo Glumov and Maxim Kammerer and decided to write the continuation. However, you can read our novel as an independent book (though, reading of above-mentioned books are highly recommended). What will be the next stage of Evolution after a human? Who will come to replace him? This is a book of the evolutionary crisis of mankind and coming of New Race (Metagoms or Ludens) on the Earth. You'll meet Maxim Kammerer in his adventure on his way to Ludens' world and the disclosure of the mystery of Lev Abalkin and the "foundlings" 30 years later after the Big Revelation. The sequel had been approved by Boris Strugatsky himself in 2011, a year before his decease in 2012.
