They are about justice, identity, and a young woman caught between two worlds — human and supernatural, loyalty and rebellion, power, and conscience. Jacquelyn Fernandez did not ask for the wolf within her. But when she is forced to embrace it, she becomes something extraordinary: a protector, an avenger, a legend. From the streets of Brooklyn to the underground war zones of Europe, Jacquelyn fights not just monsters — but the darkness within herself.

Владимир Маркович Санин (1929—1989) писал о людях, выбравших в жизни трудную и опасную дорогу, — о полярниках, пожарных, путешественниках. И сам он относился к той же беспокойной человеческой породе: совсем юным Санин успел принять участие в Великой Отечественной, после войны закончил экономический факультет МГУ, поработал в газете, стал писателем, не раз побывал за полярным кругом, в Арктике и Антарктике. Сюжеты его произведений зачастую основаны на реальных событиях, развиваются в нетривиальных обстоятельствах и замкнутых сообществах (таких, например, как экипаж судна или лавинная станция).

The Seed of McCoy written by Jack London: The Pyrenees, her iron sides pressed low in the water by her cargo of wheat, rolled sluggishly, and made it easy for the man who was climbing aboard from out a tiny outrigger canoe. As his eyes came level with the rail, so that he could see inboard, it seemed to him that he saw a dim, almost indiscernible haze. It was more like an illusion, like a blurring film that had spread abruptly over his eyes.
