They say it's best not to argue with fate. They say fate is like a giant ball, inexorable and blind. They say you can survive by getting out of its way. It will sweep away others in your stead—fate is inexorable and incomprehensible, especially at the Turn of the Eras, when the last beacons fade and the dejected sages throw up their hands.
Only a cat remains a cat even in the dark, a horse remains a horse, and a man remains a man, unless he becomes inhuman, and that's so simple. Insulted love and wounded pride, a broken heart and dashed hopes breed monsters. So guess what's more certain to kill—a lie or the truth, and who will lend a shoulder—an old friend, a hereditary enemy, or a worthless dandy?
And the Ball rolls ever faster, and there's no more time for reflection—it's time to act. Subdue the horse, subdue the woman, subdue the army... Subdue fate. Who will succeed, and will they? Not to lose when it's impossible to win. Not to win when it's impossible to lose... They say it's better not to argue with fate... But what if you try? It certainly couldn't get any worse.
The novel "The Ball of Fates" concludes the second trilogy in the "Reflections of Eterna" cycle—the Rocks trilogy.
A continuation of Vera Kamsha's fantasy novel series "Reflections of Eterna." The first novel served as the literary source for the film adaptation "Eterna. Part One."
"Reflections of Eterna" has been called "the finest example of historical fantasy in the entire post-Soviet space." In terms of scale, the series rivals the novels of Alexandre Dumas and Henryk Sienkiewicz.
