“I hope you enjoy this first book in my trilogy, Tales of the Wandering Mists. I thank you from the depths of my heart for your support. The second and third parts of the Tales are ahead. And, believe me, everything will be fine. Because real miracles happen at every step. You just have to notice them in every drop of rain, in every ray of sunshine, in every child’s smile.” — Oleg Veretskiy
