About this book

The action of the historical novel "The Last Frontier" takes place on the ruins of Novorossiysk - a small town on the Black Sea shore, almost completely swept away the face of the earth in the result of fierce battles with the fascist invaders in 1942-1943.This is a very difficult time for Russia that is drastically drained after a whole line of crushing defeats. Each of the heroes experiences it in his own way. Some of them demonstrate unparalleled heights of resilience and courage, others try to settle old scores in order to save their lives through deception and betrayal.But for all of them, as well as for the Wehrmacht's - many times superior - troops, rapidly rushing to the Caucasus, the fierce battles at cement plants on the eastern outskirts of Novorossiysk are in some way their own last frontier, on which they must make a difficult choice - to die or to win.The storyline is based on the fate of two completely dissimilar friends, fighters of the 305th Soviet marine battalion - Andrey Novitsky (a native of Novorossiysk) and Endel Mari (the Estonian). They, miraculously survived in the deadly battle at Balka Adamovicha, do not hesitate to respond to the proposal of their commander, major Caesar Kunikov, to go to an even more fierce battle - in a daring night landing on the western shore of Tsemesskaya Bay, on the now legendary Malaya Zemlya armplace.Sometimes the novel is scary in describing the Nazi atrocities and the horrors of war. The author equally does not spare either his heroes or readers, successively, page by page, exposing the terrible price of the great victory, which no heroism and no achievements of top military leaders will ever justify. This book is a reminder not only of why and thanks to whom we have a clear sky over our heads, but also rather that it should never happen again.
