A global catastrophe hits the Earth. Portals are opened in the sky above the cities, and flocks of dragon-hunters burst out from them... City quarters are burning with fire, houses collapse, innocent people die in thousands. But the purpose of the winged predators is they came to our world for living captives and grief for those who fell into their paws! This story is about five Earth people, transferred by the evil dragon into the frightening and ancient world of Toarn. About those who fell to the bottom of the society of magicians and aristocrats, faced with disbelief, hatred and meanness, but still continued to fight for their future. Though their ways were different. Someone started as a student magician, and someone... someone became a slave. The nameless slave.
The beginning was challenging. The translation from Russian is a bit rough. After I got past the beginning It got interesting. The story of the MC in his new world really drew me in. Looking forward to the next installment. From others comments this is pretty popular in it's native language.
