The novel is a multifaceted excursion into various temporal layers, tracing the history of the creation, loss, and rediscovery of the oldest Slavic texts-chronicles, which could well have been the "Veles Book" or its equivalent. The first part — "The... Wooden Book" — narrates the discovery of wooden tablets with unknown writings in the estate of the princes Donets-Zakharzhevsky near Kharkiv during the Civil War. The ancient Slavic unicas are studied by the artist Izenbek and the writer Mirolyubov. The second part — "The Great Triglav" — introduces the reader to the events and personalities of Ancient Rus in the 10th century — the sorcerer Velimir, the old warrior Mechislav, and his apprentice Svetozar. It tells the story of the creation of the wooden tablets. The main character of the third part — "Thread of Time" — is a former intelligence officer, Major Chumakov, who begins to experience strange visions after a severe injury. By "passing through" the ancient, he becomes a "priest" of modernity. At the turning point of an era, it is always important to touch the experience of those who have already undergone similar trials.
