In a new translation - the first novel of the epic “Chronicles of Predatory Cities”. This fantastic saga takes place in the future, after the Sixty Minute War, when environmental and man-made disasters forced cities to stand on wheels. Having taken off from the earth, London, Arkhangelsk and other megacities began to travel through the post-apocalyptic landscape, looking for artifacts of the Ancients - and devouring each other. Tom Natsworthy, a student at the London Guild of Historians, could not even imagine what a chance meeting with Hester Shaw from the mining town that London had just swallowed up would turn out for him: Tom and Hester become aware of a secret that can change the world order...Perhaps the most anticipated premiere of 2018 of the year is a film adaptation of “Machines of Predation”, released in December 2018 under the title “Chronicles of Predatory Cities”. The film is executive produced and written by Peter Jackson, directed by Christian Rivers (a special effects master who worked with Jackson on the set of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit and King Kong), starring Avatar's Stephen Lang and Hugh Weaving (“The Matrix”, “The Lord of the Rings”).
