Anton Tekshin

Anton Tekshin was born on June 13th, 1987, which fell on a Saturday, though his whole life he’s felt like it was a Friday. He grew up in a small town, where children’s activities consisted of alcohol consumption and playing soccer on the local pasture. Early on, books became a way for the future author to escape these dreary conditions and travel to amazing worlds. He liked sci-fi thrillers best of all and carried this passion with him through years of study and subsequent work in the field of forestry. His favorite authors back then were Lois Bujold, Emilio Salgari, George R. R. Martin and Robert Heinlein.

Anton always liked to tell stories, and at some point he realized that he had to try to write himself. By that time, he already had extensive experience interacting with people from various walks of life — from military personnel to preppers to members of the criminal underworld. Anton enjoys putting people in extreme situations and watching them find a way out. But he does this, for the most part, only in his books :)

From book 1:

If you’re going to stick your hand into somebody else’s refrigerator, you better be ready to deal with the consequences. Especially when, instead of perishable foodstuffs, the icebox in question contains people who are “provisionally alive.”

They haven’t died yet — death has not yet made up its mind about them. And even though most of them will never open their eyes again, a lucky few do stand the ghost of a chance of returning to this world. What a pity then that among these fortunate souls, there is one man who thought his earthly affairs concluded for all eternity.

His case file bristles with cautionary attributes such as “serial killer,” “extremist” and “mentally unstable.” And yet could this be the best candidate for an assignment that has already claimed the lives of several veteran operators? Who knows…
