He wants to be near when the forest "starts acting" to be able to influence the process. Leonid Gorbovsky stays on Pandora believing that the forest is dangerous. Some trees move from place to place, while others show signs of feeling the "pain" of other trees. The forest is rapidly changing, such that maps completely obsolete in two years. Some biologists claimed they saw people in the forest, but nobody took them seriously (partially because such visions were seen when the bioblocade of the observer was weakened or expired). One of the deaths was the biologist Mikhail "Athos" Sidorov, Gnedykh's childhood friend. He replaced the previous director after several deaths occurred on the base. He is responsible for overall safety, supply, and communication with the Earth. The director of the base is Paul Gnedykh. The novel is divided into two parts: life in the base and life in the forest. Humans hunt in the forest for sport in the face of serious dangers. Biologists do not understand most of the processes occurring in the forest. The base is located at the top of 2 km high crag on a continent otherwise covered by forest. Humans have built a base on it that serves as a biological laboratory and a hunting resort. The novel is set on the planet Pandora which is famous for its animated biosphere. In 1995, feeling the need to expose it to a wider readership, Boris Strugastky published it online (but it has been taken offline by his heirs).
However, twenty-five years later, they examined the initial draft and concluded that it was a decent novel in its own right.
After completing the first draft, the authors felt a need to take the novel in a different direction, which resulted in the creation of Snail on the Slope. It is the initial variant of the novel Snail on the Slope ( Улитка на склоне) which has a different set of characters and is not set in the Noon Universe. 1965 novel by Boris and Arkady Strugatskyĭisquiet ( Russian: Беспокойство, romanized: Bespokoystvo) is a 1965 science fiction novel by Soviet-Russian writers Boris and Arkady Strugatsky, set in the Noon Universe.
