A thrilling novel with elements of phantasmagoria and mysticism «Wolf's Grip. Book One tells about a secret order of Russian warriors with superpowers existing in modern Russia — the «Ambush Regiment». This order was established in the 14th century by St. Sergius of Radonezh, and since then has repeatedly saved the Fatherland in times of severe trials. The hero of the book, Vyacheslav Razhny, a former special forces soldier of the border troops and now the president of a hunting club, is actually an araks, a warrior of the Ambush Regiment. He inherited ancient knowledge and initiation into the warrior circle from his father. In peacetime, araks compete with each other in harsh duels, each of which can be their last. Their lives are governed by strict rules, breaking which can lead to losing their warrior status and falling into the caste of «the beggars of the way». They can even marry only a girl from an ancient lineage, with the consent of the elders. In this book, you will learn how to train on the «Rule» simulator, how to enter special states of consciousness, how to transform into wild beasts, and how to receive and use the energy of the Sun and the Earth.
In the second book, the main character Vyacheslav Razhny, for violating the military charter and refusing to kill his tamed wolf, is sent to serve his punishment in the Soggy Wilderness — a place of sorrow and grief, but also of spiritual searching. He must go through the temptations of worldly life, sort out his feelings, and survive in the wild pre-winter forest without clothes or tools. Meanwhile, in his domain, an investigative team and an American spy encounter the monks of the Ambush Regiment. Who will win — the gray-haired elders, barely moving their feet, or the young special forces soldiers led by an experienced intelligence officer? Will the psyche of modern people withstand the clash with the mysticism of Ancient Knowledge?
In the third book of the novel, Sergey Alekseev touches on other aspects of the life of the araks Razhny. Everything happening is a test for the main character: can he become the elder Peresvet to bring the heavenly fire, to charge the hearts and souls of warriors on the battlefield? Only a man from the Razhny lineage could be like this. For this, he must not be tempted by earthly maidens (since love is a man's weak spot) and strive to find the White Diva, who is the symbol of truth, to experience true feelings and leave offspring. That is, the last man from the Razhny lineage was attempted to be pulled from worldly bustle to resurrect the fierce heart of a warrior, then complement it with a female being so that he could continue the lineage. From Sergey Alekseev's work «Wolf's Grip», you will learn whether the hero will walk the path of spiritual perfection to fulfill his fateful destiny, which is intertwined with the invisible threads of the past, connected with the mysteries of his ancestor's fate.
