At the same time, “Bright Star” was published under the transliterated name “Bright Star”, and “Trial by Fire” from “Trial by Fire” turned into “Baptism of Fire”, although this name is incorrect, given that this is the third in a row for the characters of the series war.
In general, the publication was notable for low translation quality [approx. 2]

Notes
- ↑ “Well then, Scotty,” said Big Al. “I'm glad you asked that.” Do you remember Xenophon? Dixon and Lewis looked at Big Al at once. A hint of a smile reflected on his face and no real concern. He has something on his mind, Dixon thought, and he decided to persuade us to his side. Realizing that Big Al wanted him to act according to his plan, Dixon replied: “Yes, of course.” Campaign of ten thousand. Around 400 BC ten thousand Greek mercenaries who served the king of Persia were betrayed and abandoned in the center of present-day Iraq. Instead of surrendering, which the Persian king demanded in exchange for their lives, they closed their ranks and moved back to Greece, through present-day Kurdistan, accepting, I believe, everyone in their ranks. Big Al smiled even wider: “You have a good memory, Scotty, almost like Congressman Lewis.” Passing a compliment by the ears, Dixon continued to play his part, formulating the hints of Big Al: - Let me try to understand. You, general, suggest that we send the Germans nafig and move in orderly lines to Bremerhaven?
- ↑ excerpt from Ten Thousand, Epilogue chapter: Original: In the silence that followed, Nancy wanted to ask Grandfather George how he had dealt with the burden. Turning away from the warm fire, she looked about the room, as if that would provide the answer. As she slowly looked at the rows and rows of books standing silently waiting for the grandfather, Nancy Kozak began to realize that his many hours in quiet reading and meditation in this room had been his refuge, his place to go where he could find the strength and wisdom necessary to put his memories in their proper perspective and carry on a useful life. That he had allowed Nancy when she was a child to enter this private world was something she had never understood the full significance of. That he had seen in her the future, a future that could be free of the horrors of war that still tortured his mind, was never appreciated by anyone but him. Translation: Nancy wanted to ask old George how he himself managed this burden. The roots of thick volumes flickered in the gleams of fire, as if prompting her an answer
