Big book of toasts I. Serov

What is toast? This is a unique genre of verbal creativity, which, combining the features of a parable, an anecdote, and sometimes a pamphlet, allows the author (aka toastmaster) not only to express his attitude to a certain person, event, social phenomenon, but also to show off wit, erudition. It's no secret that we are all inherently talented, and most of us have no difficulty impromptu, succinctly and accurately expressing what needs to be expressed (especially after the second one, isn't it?). But it happens that it’s as if your tongue has been taken away from you, inspiration is sleeping, some little thing is missing to flow ...

Lianna is not an expert to write reviews, but it's worth a try :)

I've always liked the werewolf theme. I read several foreign series, one even in the original (because, no offense is said, but they translate Russian forums terribly, my eyes leak out later).

That's the story of Sheri attracted me, as soon as I read the annotation and watched the book trailer.

What do I appreciate most in books? The integrity of the story, the absence of cardboard characters, a pleasant style, the absence of errors.
There is integrity. The characters are very charismatic, not cardboard, with their bright features and habits. It is a pleasure to read, the eye does not stumble on mistakes. And, unlike me, Lydia knows how to make gorgeous descriptions :) And another huge plus is that the story comes from a third person, making us observers not only of Sheri's point of view, but also of other characters.
By the way, in addition to the love line, there is also a detective one, which pleased me pleasantly.

Attention, there will be a couple of spoilers in the text!

The story of the little white she-wolf drew me in from the first pages.
I was very pleased with the personal and characteristic growth.
If at the beginning of the novel we see a naive girl looking at the world and her lover through rose-colored glasses and with wide eyes, then by the middle of the book, Sheri has to grow up. She is not a stupid dummy who thinks only of herself. She is not a Mary Sue, for whom everything in life is easy and simple. She is an ordinary woman, albeit a werewolf. She has her own troubles, worries, doubts. She is not lying. In other words, Sheri normal woman. In some ways she is brave, in some ways she infringes on herself, giving a chance to her family.
Most of all, I liked the vitality of the story: it often happens, due to misunderstanding and our own deafness, we lose precious time and move away from loved ones.

With Mark, Cherie did not develop a relationship right away. Yes, the she-wolf hated her mate with all her heart. Yes, she was stupid and ran away, driven by fear. The usual psychological defensive reaction, the girl closed her emotions and feelings to the castle, so as not to go crazy.
But! Mark is not a scumbag, not a brainless alpha, not an overbearing pervert. He does not rape or maim the heroine. He is a normal man, moderately caring, moderately strong. And also persistent, getting his own way.

I want to note that the transition from hatred to love goes smoothly, there are no moments in which you want to exclaim: "Cheri, open your eyes, dear!".

A nice bonus of the novel is a very colorful description of motherhood, its problems and charms, difficulties and doubts.

On the shortcomings: there are a couple of typos. But everyone always has them, no matter how you read them.

He ran through the forest, clearly skirting the trees and deftly jumping over ravines. Breathing is even, the heart beats measuredly. But the persecution never stops. Jump, and the flame passes by. Very close, almost above the turntables of trees, a deafening roar of a dragon is heard, and a new fiery wave starts after the fugitive. At the very last moment, as if teasing and flirting with a dangerous opponent, the guy abruptly moves to the side, but the ends of the dark hair gathered in a ponytail have time to scorch. Evil flashing black eyes, he suddenly stops and fearlessly turns around to face the pursuer, placing a water wall between himself and the dragon that opened its mouth, which evaporates in a moment under another stream of fire. Hot drops unpleasantly burned the young man's face. Pursing his lips in displeasure, the guy began to weave a response spell, when suddenly the dragon abruptly stopped attacking and sank heavily to the ground.

Nargon, what are you doing? - the guy was surprised, lowering his hands and destroying the structure of diligently intertwined energies.

I'm sorry, Kir, it seems that's all for today, we'll continue tomorrow. Argon is calling you.

The young man, realizing that the training would have to be postponed, only snorted with displeasure and climbed on the dragon, which leaned over, spreading its wings and exposing its neck. When Cyrus settled comfortably on the lizard's neck, Nargon flapped his wings and took off. It circled a little over the green valley, flew along the silvery river, and landed at the entrance to Dragon Mountain.

Did you call me? - Cyrus asked, slowly entering a huge bright cave.

Yes. You skip classes in the library, I don’t like it,” the crimson dragon said sternly, snorting smoke in annoyance.

The guy just rolled his eyes and shook his head.

Who needs it?

Don't you dare say that! Argon growled. - I promised your parents to look after you!

You don't owe them anything. They are gone, - the young man answered with bitterness in his voice.

I know it's hard for you. But it was his choice. Someday you will understand your father. You are too young.

Am I young?! I am over two hundred years old! Not all people live to this age! - Cyrus shouted angrily and headed towards the exit with a confident step.

Kirion, your Master is waiting for you, - Argon thundered after him.

The guy, without even turning around, smiled slyly and left the cave.

The dragon wearily exhaled smoke and thought: "Unbearable boy! And who is he like? In his father, who always contradicted me? Or in his mother, who smashed half the library to me in her time? What a family!"

I ran with all my might, not sparing myself in the slightest. His breath hitched, his whole body gave off pain, his side was bleeding. But you can't stop. Forward. Only forward! Without turning around, without thinking about what remains behind me. After all, one wrong move costs me my life. I ran, but the chase caught up. No. I have been waiting for this moment for too long, I have been going to this for too long, I have given too much strength to fall and give up now. I will fight. I will fight to the end.

Night slowly descended, plunging the forest into complete darkness. And it worked for me. I could see perfectly in the dark and could move on just as confidently as during the day, unlike my pursuers, who only navigated the dark narrow dungeons. The night will cover me and save me. Night, my companion, my mother. And the sister moon will show me the way. Path to freedom...

Part 1. She-wolf

I was born in Azmir, in the underground city - prison, which is popularly called the city of the Doomed. From there there is no way out. You can't escape from there. And for every attempt to escape and insubordination, you are publicly punished, being whipped in the main square.

Guards. Perhaps this is the most terrible word that can be heard here. Soulless creatures, creatures created by higher races to protect us, captives, doomed to slave labor in the mines. They don't know mercy or compassion. They are only doing their duty: to keep order and punish. Faceless. So we call them for their terrifying appearance, missing nose and mouth. And only two eyes, like fires, burn on a flat face that cannot express a single emotion.

My mother, being pregnant with me, found herself in this city, doomed me to life imprisonment. After all, there is no way out for anyone. It doesn't matter how you got here. Unable to withstand the stress, she died when I was two years old. Eiron took up my upbringing, becoming my mentor and friend, replacing my mother, father, and everyone I could have outside.

Eiron taught me everything he knew. I diligently studied everything related to the outside world, its geography, history, racial characteristics, even mathematics and various languages. When I grew up a little, and I was seven years old, I began to learn martial arts. We trained at night, secretly from everyone, hiding from the guards and even from the neighbors. On sticks, I learned to fight with a sword or an ax, practiced various techniques and techniques. Eyron ruthlessly chased me, not giving me any peace or concessions. He said that I should be strong. And I tried my best to justify his hopes.

The mentor never talked about my mother or father, the only thing I knew about her was that she was a half-blood werewolf. Her animal hypostasis was a she-wolf. And I inherited her gift. At fifteen, I first switched. On that day, Eyron took an oath from me that I would not tell anyone about my gift, and that no one would know about my abilities, which would only grow every year. After that, our studies began to include the management of my power. I learned to control the beast in myself, to completely or partially shift at will, and in whatever guise I was, always smell like a wolf, and think like a man.

Since childhood, I often came to my favorite place, the only place from where I could see the sky. A small piece of blue canvas, which beckoned and pulled towards itself, towards freedom, towards freedom. It was a round tunnel, going high up with walls that were absolutely smooth and slippery, which were simply impossible to cling to. And at the end of the saving light, three-headed dogs tirelessly guarded. They did not leave the fugitive a single chance, and if by some miracle he nevertheless overcomes these walls, the dogs will not let him rise to the surface even up to his torso.

The tunnel was located above a small cave in which Eyron taught me to flip over and fully open the raging caged beast. Here I could get angry, growl and release all the soul-rending emotions. But at the same time, I learned to control myself, not allowing the she-wolf to overshadow my human mind.

At sixteen, I made my first escape attempt, for which I was severely whipped on the back. I ventured to climb up the tunnel, clinging with my fingertips to barely perceptible ledges. But I broke loose, never being able to crawl even a tenth. My mentor was angry and scared, he shouted at me, calling me a stupid, naive and self-confident girl. But this only strengthened my intention, only piqued my interest. It was a challenge that I couldn't ignore. After that, I trained with great zeal, with a great desire to escape from this hell.

At eighteen, I felt that my strength was growing with me. I realized that I can do more than just turn into a she-wolf. But I couldn't figure out what exactly was bothering me. Day after day I came to the tunnel, and looking at blue sky, imagined myself turning into a bird and flying away, leaving this damned place.
