Poznań, Poland. The middle of a harsh winter. Weronika is in love with her best friend Wu, who has just told her about his new boyfriend. They spend most evenings drinking away their problems with a bunch of like-minded pub-goers. There’s been a terrorist attack. A girl gets murdered with a war scythe. The reality reveals a whole new layer when the friends mention a place called Vostok City.
On the surface, VOSTOK is a murder story with a literary bent. Dig deeper, and it will reveal itself as science fiction that only pretends to play by the rules of realism.
One of the most imaginative novels I’ve read (…) The right mix of experimental, multi-formic prose and a world built beyond the bizarre as one keeps reading.
Sapha Burnell, author of NEON Lieben

If you are looking for (…) a mystery that builds page to page with a revealing crescendo that washes over you helplessly, then Vostok is the novel for you.
R.L. Arenz III, author of Aegis

Vostok’s prose is of a singular beauty and purity. I cannot stop diving back into it.
VRAEYDA LITERARY, the publisher
