About this audiobook
"Sannikova Land" of Vladimir Obruchev is a masterpiece of domestic science-fiction and adventure literature, written by an outstanding geologist and geographer. This is an exciting novel about an expedition to the lost world, where eternal Arctic glaces take place to the blooming oasis and primitive life. The story develops in the early 20th century. A group of courageous researchers led by the political reference Matthew Gorynov is going to search for the mysterious, warm Land of Sanikova – a ghost island in the Northern Ice Ocean, which many years ago saw polar travelers. There, protected from the polar cold by the warm geisers, the fossil flora and fauna were preserved: the mammoth, the frogs and the primitive tribes of oncillons and vampires, stuck in the Stone Age. But a fragile paradise on the edge of the earth is threatened by a catastrophic natural shift. Obruchev accomplished the incredible: he combined the dynamics of the adventure novel in the spirit of Julio Verne with the absolute scientific accuracy, forcing generations of readers to believe in the reality of the Arctic miracle. Who to read: Lovers of classic adventure fantasy, stories of great geographical discoveries, lost worlds and survival in extreme conditions.
