I am Väinö Mononen, born under the sign of Aquarius in 1957 in Kiihtelysvaara in North Karelia, Finland. I currently work as a non-fiction writer and war researcher. During my actual working career, I mainly worked in business, for example in sales and marketing.
I completed my conscript service in the Kainuu brigade, through which I became a Finnish reserve officer, who later worked for several years in the field of voluntary national defense as a spokesperson and as the editor-in-chief of the reservists' newspaper, while traveling and participating in numerous refresher exercises around the province of North Karelia.
Along with that, I also started walking in the raven landscapes of Kainuu, especially in Kuhmo, where my father also lived. The peace of nature and the inexhaustible wilderness attracted more and more people. Walking through the terrain, I couldn't help but notice the moss-covered scars of the winter war. No wonder I became seriously interested in those past events. A Finn doesn't believe until he sees with his own eyes and hears with his own ears - that's what happened to me too.
Over the years, so many remembered events began to accumulate that they had to be recorded in written form. For this reason, I have previously written and published 16 non-fiction books in Finnish:
- Death Alley Run (Alfamer 2006)
- Flames of underworld (Edico 2011)
- The War Path of a Battalion (Books on Demand 2016)
- Dolin's ski brigade (Books on Demand 2018)
- Fire and flint (Books on Demand 2019)
- Winter War in Kuhmo I - V (Books on Demand 2020)
- Winter War in Suomussalmi I - V (Books on Demand 2021)
- Curse of Kianta (Books on Demand 2022)
