Мечи Марса

The vivid world-building makes Mars feel so alive—I'm curious whether he envisioned this from the start or developed it as he wrote.

The over-the-top heroics and dialogue really scream classic pulp, but it made me wonder how modern readers perceive this tone.

The focus on swords adds a certain old-school flair, but I wonder if there was a specific reason behind this choice versus other weapons.
