All the work of the author can be divided into book cycles. Very rarely, separate, unrelated stories come out.

The cycle consists of three books connected by a common storyline and telling about the adventures of the same heroes.
It all starts on the Lazur archipelago forgotten by God. A newborn baby gets an unprecedented gift, but at the same time a curse. When fate is already predetermined by the gods, it is rather difficult to rewrite it again. However, Evelina will try. She is not afraid to go against the will of higher forces and boldly challenge them. What does this entail? A life full of trials and disappointments, betrayal of loved ones and the unknown? Yes, but at the same time and new faithful friends, as well as love. Only after going all the way to the end, you can understand whether you won or lost.
"Retribution, or a Cat named Tefna"
Elena Malinovskaya presents to readers a new unusual heroine and in four books talks about her adventures.
Once upon a time there was Tefna, the most common evil. And the cat is half. By definition, she was supposed to be smart, cunning and prudent, but this is only by definition. But in fact, everything is much sadder. Tefna managed out of her own stupidity to please the sworn enemy, and because of hopelessness, and conclude an agreement with him. From this begins the incredible adventures of unremarkable evil. Will there be enough nine lives to get out of all the troubles kindly provided by fate?

To be in the center of an incomprehensible conspiracy, to find out that you are nothing more than a beautiful toy for a powerful puppeteer pulling strings when he wants to ... Scary?

Fortuneteller
