Ivan Bilyk's novel The Sword of Areus is about ancient Rusyns and ancient Kyiv, about slave-owning Rome and treacherous Constantinople. It is a novel about how our ancestors lived and loved, grew bread on the fertile fields of Naddniprianshchyna, and when they had to, they defended their land from the encroachments of foreigners - Romans and Byzantines, Goths and Asian nomads. This is a novel about love and labour, the life and death of the great commander Attila, who united the Slavs in a powerful alliance and once and for all repelled the slave owners' desire to impose their worldview and their yoke on the Slavs.
