Russian writer Boris Nikolayevich Gromov specializes in the genre of science fiction. His first works were three novels, united by a common concept, plot and title - “Terek Front”. In order of the work, it is more convenient to read: “Survive”, “Survive. Storm over the Terek ”and“ Death ”.
Start
The writer was born in 1977 in a military family, so sometimes he had to move. The childhood, cheerful and carefree, passed in Central Asia, youth - in Moscow suburbs. Boris Gromov studied mediocrely, preferred humanitarian subjects, was fond of reading fiction. After graduating from school, he entered the Lomonosov Moscow State University. After the third year of the faculty of journalism, he transferred to the correspondence department and joined the army.
Gromov passed a severe test in special forces by a military intelligence officer, was a participant in the hostilities. After military service I tried to catch on a civilian, but failed. Thinking that he could only fight, he went to the riot police. Then Boris still did not know that he would write the fantastic trilogy The Tersky Front.
Features of creativity
Passion for science fiction, reading and watching films was not in vain. Horror about zombies fell in love with the author. Boris had already tried to write in similar subjects, but failed. The pen test was influenced by the works of Andrei Cruise. Gromov had his own journalist skills, so he sketched a couple of chapters of the idol for review. He responded, unexpectedly approved the ability to write, and advised him to do it further. He even promised to help with advice. Thus began the work of Boris. The idea to create the Terek Front came while escorting a convoy in Chechnya. The idea appeared spontaneously and out of nowhere: a warrant officer with concussion from riot police gets into the future. The action in the novel takes place in the mountains of the North Caucasus, the geography of which Boris Gromov knows like the back of his hand.
Reading books is exciting from the first minutes. Readers note an interesting artistic content. A writer is a person who knows war. Boris describes the battles and related moments so skillfully that they complement each other. The author is a professional military man, knows army discipline, and is a participant in operations. The writer decrypts combat slang and all kinds of abbreviations, details weapons and ammunition, which makes the book much more lively. The author regrets the great country that collapsed. Patriotism is presented so naturally that you believe Gromov right away. The writer is an employee of the department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Service Description
OMONOVETS is an employee of the special forces unit who was trained to work in hot spots. The fighter knows firsthand the basics of martial arts. In the unit where Boris Gromov was registered, 70% of the personnel had higher education. Volunteers appear in the OMON, the service is associated with a risk to life, a serious approach, knowledge of the matter and loyal comrades are needed here. Warriors often die when completing missions. Permanent business trips to the Caucasus, multiple military clashes - it is often necessary to bow under bullets.
Higher education gave a chance to get a junior officer rank, but where there. After repeated reform of special units, the orders changed. Boris Gromov intends to pay off the debt to the end, and then retire. He is not going to give up service just like that, although his health on this path has undermined. Is that transferred inside the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Work in the office, close to the teaching, seems to be an appropriate option.
Don't be lazy
Now that Boris has already written a lot, his soul is insistently asking for continuation, and the editors simply demand this, since the initiative has turned out to be promising. After all, the Tersky Front trilogy is only the beginning of a series of literary fiction. There are many ideas, it remains to bring them to life. You can’t give up the profession, but service in a special unit is characteristic, and this is a long time, so it is difficult to plan the timing of further writing. When ordinary people have a rest, in OMON the increased combat readiness.
Boris Gromov created half of the Terskaya Front trilogy during a business trip to the Caucasus, with a stupid schedule for combat duty at a checkpoint. Riot policemen are accustomed on business trips to a specific environment: sleep and eating only when they are calm. Even such conditions did not interfere with the creative impulse. The main thing is not to be lazy, and whatever happens.
Gromov’s books “Tersky Front” gained popularity among the reader. The dead did not sink into oblivion, and when the author completed the first work, he returned to the zombies in the Central Russian strip. The works "Ordinary Apocalypse" and "This is my land!"
