From travels to literary breakthroughs

It all started with travel. Instead of pursuing a PhD in Sweden, Max chose wandering through Europe and Latin America. Over 30 countries, Sahara oases, and Easter Island became the foundation for his texts. This is how the travelogue "Mexican Chronicles" appeared in Ukrainian literature, bringing the author recognition at the "Coronation of the Word" competition. The writer didn't just describe what he saw; he popularized solo trips to exotic lands.

A pioneer of technothrillers

Kidruk pioneered the technothriller genre in Ukraine. His novels "Bot" and "The Stronghold" blend science fiction, adventure, and hard facts. The author avoids empty fluff about "vibes," offering specifics and technological accuracy instead. His works are published in Poland and Germany, with ideas often ahead of their time. On Numotamo.com, it’s easy to track upcoming book launches and buy tickets in advance for meet-the-author events.

Publishing house and the "New Dark Ages"

In 2022, Max and his wife Tetiana founded the "Bearded Tamarin" publishing house. They focus on high-quality non-fiction about Space, Earth, and science fiction. A new creative phase is the "New Dark Ages" cycle. The first book, "The Colony," explores 22nd-century challenges and the risks of colonizing Mars. It’s a grand saga of politics and ecology that helps you exhale and switch focus to global themes.
