Life

Ulyanenko graduated from the nautical school in Mykolaiv in 1980 and then worked as a paratrooper in the Red Army in Afghanistan and the GDR .

In 1997 he received the Taras Shevchenko Prize for his novel "Stalinka". Then he wrote a script that, according to Ulyanenko, was used by Russian director Sergei Seljanow for the film "Schmurki" without his permission .

In 2006 he published the book "Signs of Sabaoth" in which he described the activities of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate . He claims that this church has always been against Ukrainian independence and that it is the fifth column of Ukraine.

In 2009 he published the crime melodrama "There in the South", which was later translated into Czech.

On August 17, 2010, he died unexpectedly in his apartment in Kiev. The official cause of death was heart failure , but this cause of death was doubted by his friends. He was buried in the Baikowe Cemetery in Kiev.
