Russian writer Boris Nikolaevich Gromov specializes in the genre of combat fiction. His first works were three novels, united by a common idea, plot and title - "Tersk Front". In order of the work, it is more convenient to read: “Survive”, “Survive. Storm over the Terek” and “Death”.

Start

The writer was born in 1977 in a military family, so sometimes he had to move. Childhood, cheerful and carefree, passed in Central Asia, youth - in the Moscow region. Boris Gromov studied mediocre, preferred humanitarian subjects, was fond of reading science fiction. After graduating from school, he entered the Lomonosov Moscow State University. After the third year of the faculty of journalism, he transferred to the correspondence department and joined the army.

Gromov passed a severe test in the special forces as a military intelligence officer, was a participant in the hostilities. After military service, he tried to catch on in civilian life, but it did not work out. Thinking that he could only fight, he went to the OMON. Then Boris did not know that he would write the fantastic trilogy "Tersk Front".

Features of creativity

Passionscience fiction, reading and watching movies were not in vain. Horror about zombies fell in love with the author. Boris had already tried to write on similar topics before, but failed. The test of the pen occurred under the influence of the works of Andrei Cruz. Gromov had his own journalistic skills, so he sketched a couple of chapters for his idol for review. He responded, unexpectedly approved the ability to write and advised me to do it further. He even promised to help with advice. Thus began the work of Boris. The idea to create the Terek Front came while escorting a convoy in Chechnya. The idea appeared spontaneously and out of nowhere: an ensign with a shell shock from the riot police gets into the future. Actions in the novel take place in the mountains of the North Caucasus, the geography of which Boris Gromov knows like the back of his hand.

Reading books captures from the first minutes. Readers note interesting artistic content. A writer is a person who knows war. Boris paints the fights and incidents so skillfully that they complement each other. The author is a professional military man, knows army discipline, is a participant in operations. The writer deciphers combat slang and all kinds of abbreviations, details weapons and ammunition, which makes the book much more lively. The author regrets the great country that collapsed. Patriotism is presented so naturally that you believe Gromov right away. The writer is an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Service Description

Omonovets is a member of a special forces unit who was trained to work in "hot spots". Fighter firsthandknows the basics of martial arts. In the unit where Boris Gromov was listed, 70% of the personnel had a higher education. Volunteers appear in the riot police, the service is associated with a risk to life, a serious approach, knowledge of the matter and faithful comrades are needed here. Warriors often die on missions. Constant business trips to the Caucasus, multiple combat clashes - you often have to bend under bullets.

Higher education gave a chance to get a junior officer rank, but where there. After repeated reforms of special units, the order has changed. Boris Gromov intends to repay his debt to the end, and then retire. He is not going to quit his service just like that, although he undermined his he alth on this path. Unless to be transferred inside the Ministry of Internal Affairs. An office job close to teaching seems like a good fit.

Don't be lazy

Now, when Boris has already written a lot, his soul insistently asks for continuation, and the editors simply demand this, since the initiative turned out to be promising. After all, the Tersky Front trilogy is only the beginning of a series of literary fiction. There are many ideas, it remains to bring them to life. You can’t quit your profession, but service in a special detachment is typical, and this is for a long time, so it’s difficult to plan the timing of further writing. When ordinary people are resting, the riot police are on high alert.

Half of the Tersk Front trilogy was created by Boris Gromov during a business trip to the Caucasus, with a stupid schedule of combat duty at a checkpoint. The riot police are accustomed tobusiness trips to a specific environment: sleep and eat only when calm. Even such conditions did not interfere with the creative impulse. The main thing is not to be lazy, and come what may.

Gromov's books "Tersk Front" have gained popularity with the reader. The dead have not sunk into oblivion, and when the author completed the first work, he returned to the zombies in the Central Russian strip. The works "Ordinary of the Apocalypse" and "This is my land!" The essays are worth reading. It's fun!
