In his candid interview, Sergei Chekmaev talks about how science fiction writers write about patriotic fiction, about the reaction of the authors of the science fiction genre to the onset of a new era of religion, and about a new religious subgenre.

On patriotic fiction, Sergei expresses himself as follows:

"This genre took place long "before", from the very collapse of the Soviets, but, perhaps, much earlier, at the time of the coming of novels about the future of Great Russia and its independent space empire. But then interest in military-historical literature brought forth a strange genre, where our contemporaries, finding themselves in the past, corrected mistakes and completely changed the spectrum of events, as a result of which the country turned into a powerful world leader without feeling the tirade of fierce battles and cataclysms. "Patriotism is not always about winning on a military basis. A good example is the anthology for Family.net about a future where social society has abandoned the traditional family."

In the twenty-first century, sucha sensitive topic, like religion, is again becoming mainstream among the local inhabitants. What is the reaction of science fiction writers?

Fiction and religion have been going hand in hand for a long time, despite the fact that in the past our genre was often shown in the opposite light. And these events concerned not only Soviet Russia, but there are many examples abroad, where post-apocalyptic scenarios and a future of religious dictatorship were written.

On the question of whether Orthodox fiction can be considered a new subgenre, the writer noted that it is important that the characters of the work follow religious concepts within the framework of Orthodox ethics and morality, professing the principles of goodness and justice. Exceptionally in this state of events, the book can be attributed to the "new", aforementioned subgenre.
