Metro 2033

The cult international bestseller and inspiration behind the METRO video game franchise

De: Dmitry Glukhovsky

Narrado por: Rupert Degas

Now including a new translation, this is a chilling piece of Russian dystopian fiction by Dmitry Glukhovsky and the basis of the bestselling computer games Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, Metro: Exodus, and the highly-anticipated Metro 2039

A WORLD IN DARKNESS. A SINGLE HOPE.

The year is 2033. The world has been reduced to rubble. Humanity is nearly extinct. A few thousand live on, not knowing if they are the only survivors on the planet. They live in the Moscow Metro - the biggest air-raid shelter ever built. It is humanity's last refuge. It is a world without a tomorrow, with no room for dreams, plans, hopes. Feelings have given way to instinct - the most important of which is survival. Survival at any price.

VDNKh is the northernmost inhabited station on its line and still remains secure. But now a new and terrible threat has appeared. Artyom, a young man living in VDNKh, is given the task of penetrating to the heart of the Metro to alert everyone to the awful danger. He holds the future of his native station in his hands, the future of the Metro - and maybe the whole of humanity.

The world of Metro 2033 is fascinating

A fascinating and claustrophobic exploration of a terrible future and how human nature adapts

a great book

one of the best post apocalyptic books I've ever read and I'm looking forward to reading the rest

Metro 2033

Started listening to this book because I played the games and loved it, this book is even better. Every story within the metro are have different explanations, and truths to it.

A soulsearching adventure with horror

If you could sum up Metro 2033 in three words, what would they be?

Psychological horror adventure

Who was your favorite character and why?

The main character development during the story makes him very interresting. It also makes you question yourself during the story if you would share his views or not as the story progresses.

Which scene was your favorite?

When the main character is returing to his home station and he start asking himself about everything that has happen to him and he survived and others did not.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

A story that will make you question your own place in the world and what is truly valuable and what is not.

Any additional comments?

The book itself is a bit hard to read on its own. Mainly because it was translated in a very google-like way. With the audiobook, however, it becomes much easier to follow the story all the way to the end. I recommend when you buy the book to buy this audiobook as well. I will guarantee that you will not be dissapointed when you do that.

aburrido

no lo terminaba más.. de hecho, no lo terminé, lo abandone al 75% más o menos

Read it while playing the game!

I started playing the game before reading this book, and finished them both together, there are almost no spoilers shared between the video game and the book, on the contrary, they compliment each other better than any other book+movie or book+video-game I have seen so far.

I recommend you do them both together, don't start one after you finish the other, trust me it will make the experiences on both mediums much more amazing than any one would have been on its own..

I myself play a lot of games but if you don't, I think you might even enjoy it more, you can find the game cheap on online digital stores.
