fiction series
The young Bulgarian princess Olga is to marry her peer, the Byzantine Emperor Constantine: the two great powers want to consolidate peace after a series of wars. The future seems bright to Olga: she loves her husband and dreams of ruling together the most brilliant empire on Earth. However, Constantin is overthrown from the throne, and the usurper Roman forcibly marries him to his daughter. The father hastily marries Olga to Ingvar (Igor), the Varangian king of Kyiv: Bulgaria needs an ally against Byzantium. Ingvar is a barbarian and a pagan, a warrior, and a slave trader, he is only interested in military glory and loot; from this marriage, he needs kinship with the Bulgarian king and a dowry. Life in Kyiv is simple and harsh: instead of brilliance and sophistication, Olga faces indifference and humiliation. From the first days, she desperately fights for her rights, for the respect of her husband and for the love of her subjects. But there is something for which she fights even harder. She lost her beautiful world, Ingvar cannot give it to her. Well, then she will recreate this world on her own and make it better than the one that was taken from her. While Constantine and Roman are fighting for power in Byzantium, while in Bulgaria, Olga's brother Petr loses everything his father created in wars and intrigues, Olga frees slaves and builds churches, teaches people literacy and plows fields in Rus, she wants to make barbarian Rus' more beautiful and rich than Byzantium and Bulgaria. Olga fights and, in the end, wins. Even Ingvar cannot resist her masculine mind and feminine heart and falls head over heels for her. Olga, overcoming the abyss between them, reciprocates Ingvar. Together they will build Rus, build the future. Olga will not be stopped by the intrigues of Ingvar's first wife Prekrasa, the attempts of slave traders, the tricks of pagan magicians, or the actions of Governor Sveneld, who dreams of replacing Ingvar on the throne and in Olga's heart. Even the death of Ingvar, treacherously killed by Sveneld, does not stop Olga. She defeats Sveneld and creates a great empire in memory of Ingvar and for the sake of their children.
