Брент Уикс, «Чёрная призма». Почти не читаю фентези, но наткнулся в сети на обсуждение книги, купил и прослушал две части. Остальные, к сожалению, на русском не вышли, и неизвестно, выйдут ли (издательство отвечает отписками). При этом история сквозная, так что сами решайте. Потому что нереальная годнота как раз для тех, кто фентези считает менее умным и серьёзным жанром, нежели обычный сайфай. В этой вселенной маги могут колдовать, создавая из света разных цветов материальную субстанцию — люксин. При этом от цвета зависят физические свойства люксина: красный, например, липкий и взрывоопасный, синий прочный как металл, из зелёного можно делать верёвки и так далее. Большинство магов извлекают люксин одного цвета, реже двух соседних. Ещё реже больше. Причём, магия вполне подчиняется обычной физике: если маг наденет очки с цветными стёклами, то ему колдуется гораздо проще. Каждый извлекатель может за жизнь совершить некоторый конечный объём магии, после чего сходит с ума, и текущее состояние на этой шкале всегда видно по степени перекрашивания глазных белков. И первый любопытный факт, что главный герой уже самый могущественный маг и правитель империи, способный неограниченно использовать все цвета. Нередко в таких произведениях герой либо скрытый избранный, внезапно обнаруживающий в себе особые способности, либо поднимающийся со дна простолюдин (вор, маленький человек итд). А тут положение героя сразу концентрирует сюжет вокруг политики, управления страной и прочих масштабных вопросов. Второй любопытный факт, что автор явно гик, так что в сюжете вы найдёте реализацию реактивной тяги на люксиновых деталях, создаваемые магами полиспасты, отсылки к оптике, строительству, и в целом очень логичный, продуманный и непротиворечивый мир. Упоминаются маги, работающие с инфракрасным и УФ-диапазоном и даже с микроволновым излучением. Отдельный респект за то, что элита и всякая пафосная знать в этом мире играет не в какой-нибудь унылый покер, который и игрой то назвать нельзя, а в настоящую ККИ, правила и геймплей которой тоже описаны с неплохой степенью подробности (думаю, писатель вдохновлялся реальной Magic The Gathering). Из недостатков могу отметить неспешный сюжет — событий происходит очень мало. Вроде как всего уже написано 5 или 6 книг, но, как я уже сказал, придётся ждать. Ещё в книге есть один раздражающий, на мой взгляд, персонаж, неправдоподобно везучий. И стоит упомянуть, что переводчики первой и второй книги разные, и они почему-то друг с другом не синхронизировались по именам. Но в остальном, пожалуй, самое интересное на мой личный вкус фентези, из тех, что я читал, если вообще такое жанровое определение применимо. Кстати, озвучку аудиокниг на русском записал профессиональный диктор Илья Дементьев, и это просто офигеть как круто звучит. Есть много хороших чтецов, но профи с 20-летним стажем поднимает чтение на какой-то нереальный уровень, как по мне. #fiction

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the meeting with delegation of the Permanent Committee of the International Conference of Asian Political Parties (Perm, May 29, 2025) 💬 Sergey Lavrov: Dear colleagues, dear friends, This is the year when the International Conference of Asian Political Parties commemorates its 25th anniversary. And because of their reputation and their authority, they are a platform for exchanging views and experience in the context of party-to-party cooperation. Cooperation at this level is one of our priorities. It's a very useful addition to the so-called classical diplomacy and that contributes a lot to promoting mutual trust, mutual understanding between peoples. The creation of the conference is a signal, a very clear signal to the entire world. And very timely response to reconsider the place of the Asian countries in international and global developments. We assess very positively the increase of the political work of your conference. And we see with pleasure the sustainable process of expanding your influence in the continental architecture, in the architecture of regional organizations, some of which are experiencing erosion of their influence, if not degradation, since they abandoned practically all of the key principles of the UN Charter. I have in mind such organizations on our Eurasian continent as the European Union, which became more Euro-Atlantic than Eurasian following NATO. <...> In the last 10-15 years, all these principles including equal and indivisible security, including the statement that no one, be it the country or organization, should prepare to dominate in Europe, all this was abandoned, violated. 🌐 We need Eurasia of course. And by the way, Eurasia is the biggest, the richest continent. The continent which, unlike Africa and Latin America, is home of several world civilizations with thousands and thousands of years of history. <...> #Eurasia is the only continent which doesn't have any universal continental structure, like African Union in Africa, like CELAC in Latin America. We have quite a lot, many integrational movements, organizations which address security issues, like Shanghai Cooperation Organization, #ASEAN, Collective Security Treaty Organization (#CSTO), Commonwealth of Independent States (#CIS) and the Gulf Cooperation Council (#GCC), the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (#SAARC) and there is no umbrella. We are very much in favor of promoting party-to-party dialogue. Our ruling party, United Russia, in cooperation with other parliamentary parties and their fractions is promoting very actively this kind of cooperation. And I will highlight the initiative of United Russia of last year, when they convened a meeting of various parties to consider methods of fighting the new forms of colonialism and neo-colonialism. <...> A movement created on the basis of the conference, which is called "Freedom of Nations". ☝️ The inadmissibility of neo-colonial forms of exploitation is one of the agenda items of the Group of Friends of the UN Charter. Last year, we initiated, through this group, the resolution of the UN Committee on Decolonization. The draft resolution supported by this committee was accepted by the UN General Assembly. <..> A clear majority supported it. The idea is to announce the 14th of December, the day of the adoption of The Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples of 1960, as a date of fighting the new forms of neo-colonialism. Сolonial exploitation was very blunt. Slaves, you know, digging the resources and leaving the countries in very poor condition. If you take the economic system in the world, countries, especially in Africa, mostly produce, they provide natural resources to the western countries We would like to promote the movement to resolve this injustice. Without fighting any country, we never want to isolate any country from cooperation, but cooperation must be based on equal footing, just principles. 🤝 We express our readiness to cooperate with your conference.
