Grisha Kuzin entered a photo contest and, to his own surprise, won the grand prize—two weeks on an island in the Indian Ocean! Anyone would envy such a vacation. Swim in warm water, eat exotic fruits, and soak up the experience... Instead of the usual grey buildings—a bungalow nestled among spreading palm trees; instead of city streets—the jungle; instead of neighbors—a native named Jim. But not even in his wildest fantasies could the teenager have imagined that ominous totems, treasure at the bottom of the ocean, a whimsical castle, and the Great King's throne awaited him!
Tatyana Zolotareva is an author, editor, and master of the well-aimed word. The characters in her fantastic novella "The Island of the Sunken Castle" are young, yet brave and very curious. They have to solve difficult questions. Who deserves the laurels of a pioneer? What is more important—friendship or power? And where should you begin when you want to fix your mistakes? Daria Klyukva’s illustrations echo the dynamic plot, transporting the reader to a distant island full of mysteries.
